2. To set the System Usage Threshold, enter a number from 1 to 99. This sets the threshold
level at which a trap is sent if consumed power is greater than the threshold power.
3. The Power Management Mode describes or controls the power management algorithm
used by the PSE to deliver power to the requesting PDs. Select Static to indicate that the
power allocated for each port depends on the type of power threshold configured on the
port. Select Dynamic to indicate that the power consumption on each port is measured and
calculated in real-time.
4. T
o set the traps, select Enable to activate the PoE traps. Select Disable to deactivate the
PoE traps. The default setting is enabled.
5. Click Apply to send the updated configuration to the switch. Configuration changes take
ef
fect immediately.
PoE Port Configuration
To display the Advanced PoE Port Configuration page, click System > PoE > Advanced >
PoE Port Configuration. A screen similar to the following is displayed.
1. Select the Admin Mode (Enable or Disable) to determine the ability of the port to
deliver power.
2. Port Priority is used to determine which ports can deliver power when the total power
delivered by the system crosses a specific threshold. If the switch is not able to supply
power to all connected devices, priority is used to determine which ports can supply power
.
The lowest numbered port which is one of the ports of the same priority will have a higher
priority. Select the priority order from the following list:
• Low - Low priority
• Medium - Medium priority
• High - High priority
• Critical - Critical priority
3. Select the High Power Mode from the following options:
• Disabled indicates that a port is powered in the IEEE 802.3af mode.
• Legacy indicates that a port is powered using high-inrush current, used by legacy
PD's whose power requirements are more than 15W from power up.
• Pre-802.3at indicates a port is powered in the IEEE 802.3af mode initially and then
switched to the high-power IEEE 802.3at mode before 75 msec.
This mode needs to
be selected if the PD is NOT performing Layer 2 Classification or the PSE is
performing 2-Event Layer 1 Classification.
• 802.3at indicates that a port is powered in the IEEE 802.3at mode. For example, if the
class detected by PSE is not class4, then the PSE port will not power up the PD.
