Monitoring Power over Ethernet via CLI
To monitor current PoE statistics and settings, use the show lanpower command. The command output
displays a list of all current PoE-capable, along with the following information for each port:
• Maximum power available to the port, in milliwatts
• Actual power used by the port
• Current port status
• Power priority status
• Power on/off status
Aggregate slot and chassis management information is also displayed. This information includes:
• Maximum watts available to the corresponding slot
• Amount of power budget remaining for PoE modules
• Total amount of power remaining for additional switch functions
When entering the show lanpower command, you must include a valid slot number in the command line
syntax. For example:
-> show lanpower 1
