Monitoring Power over Ethernet via CLI Managing Power over Ethernet (PoE)
page 6-10 OmniSwitch 6450 Hardware Users Guide September 2015
Priority Disconnect is Disabled
Reminder. Priority disconnect examples are applicable only when there is inadequate power remaining to
power an incoming device.
When priority disconnect is disabled, power will be denied to any incoming PD, regardless of its port
priority status (i.e., low, high, and critical) or physical port number (i.e., 1/1).
Monitoring Power over Ethernet via CLI
To monitor current PoE statistics and settings, use the lanpower combo-port 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 that can be available for PoE modules
• Total amount of power remaining that can be available 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
