Configuring the PoE Port Priority

Supported for Summit X460-G2 PoE (Power over Ethernet) models only.

You can configure the PoE port priority to be low, high, or critical. The default value is low.

If you configure the disconnect precedence as lowest priority and the PDs request power in excess of the switch‘s or slot‘s reserved power budget, the system allocates power to those ports with the highest priorities first.

If several ports have the same PoE priority, the lower port numbers have higher PoE priorities. That is, the switch withdraws power (or disconnects) those ports with the highest port number(s).

To configure PoE port priority, use the following command:

configure inline-power priority [critical | high | low] ports port_list
To reset the port priority to the default value of low, use the following command:

unconfigure inline-power priority ports [all | port_list]
To display the PoE port priorities, use the following command:

show inline-power configuration ports port_list
