Power over Ethernet (PoE) Commands
page 4-2 OmniSwitch 6250 CLI Reference Guide November 2009
lanpower start
Activates Power over Ethernet on a single specified PoE port or on all PoE ports in a specified slot.
lanpower start {slot/port[-port2] | slot}
Important. Inline power is not activated until the lanpower start slot syntax is issued for the applicable
PoE slot(s).
Syntax Definitions
slot/port Activates inline power on the specified PoE port only. This syntax is
used to re-enable power to an individual port that has been manually
turned off via the lanpower stop command.
port2 The last port number in a range of ports that you want to configure on
the same slot (e.g, 3/1-4 specifies ports 1-4 on slot 3).
slot Activates inline power on all PoE ports in the corresponding slot.
Defaults
Power over Ethernet operational status is globally disabled by default.
Platforms Supported
OmniSwitch 6250-Enterprise Models
Usage Guidelines
Use the slot/port syntax to activate power on a particular port. When all ports in a slot are manually turned
off, use only the slot syntax in the command line. This activates power on all ports in the specified slot. As
noted above, inline power is not active until the lanpower start slot syntax is issued for the applicable
PoE slot(s).
