enable inline-power slot

enable inline-power [fast | perpetual] slot slot

Description

Enables PoE power, and fast and perpetual PoE power to the specified node (slot) on SummitStacks.

Syntax Description

slot Enables inline power to specified slot.
fast Deliver PoE power to devices at the time of switch power on without waiting for boot up based on last saved PoE state. The default is disabled.
perpetual Preserves PoE power delivery to devices during reboot. Perpetual PoE is a switch-wide setting. The default is disabled.

Default

By default:
  • PoE is enabled.
  • Fast PoE is disabled.
  • Perpetual PoE is disabled.

Usage Guidelines

Disabling inline power to a slot immediately removes power to any connected PDs. By default, inline power provided to all slots is enabled. Additionally, you can opt to deliver PoE power to devices at the time of switch power on without waiting for boot up (fast PoE) based on last saved PoE state. You can also elect to preserve PoE power delivery to devices during reboot (perpetual PoE). The default for both PoE options is disabled.

To deliver inline power to slots, you must reserve power for that slot using the configure inline-power budget command. By default, each PoE module has 50 W of power reserved for inline power.

Disabling inline power using the disable inline-power command does not affect the data traffic traversing the slot. And, disabling the slot using the disable slot command does not affect the inline power supplied to the slot.

If you do not specify a slot number, the command operates on all active nodes in the stack. This command operates only on nodes in the active topology.

Example

The following command makes inline power available to slot 3:

# enable inline-power slot 3
The following example turns on perpetual PoE to slot 3:
# enable inline-power perpetual slot 3

History

This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 11.1.

The fast and perpetual PoE options were added in ExtremeXOS 30.3.

Platform Availability

This command is available on SummitStack when the stack contains switches listed in Extreme Networks PoE Devices.
