Default
By default, this option is set as auto.
Command Mode
Interface Configuration Mode.
Command Default Level
Level: 15.
Usage Guideline
When the port is set to auto mode, the port will automatically detect the PD and provision power to the PD.
Use this command to also specify a time range with a port. Once a PoE port is associated with a time-range
profile, it will only be activated during the time frame specified in the profile. That is, the PD will not get powered
during timeframe out of the specified time range.
When the command no poe power-inline is issued, the power management mode will be reset to default
setting.
The specified time-range profile does not need to exist to configure the command. If the time-range profile
does not exist, the command acts as if the time-range is not specified.
Example
This example shows how to enable PD detection and to automatically power PoE port, ethernet 1/0/3.
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# interface Ethernet 1/0/3
Switch(config-if)# poe power-inline auto
This example shows how to disable powered device detection and not to power a PoE port, ethernet 1/0/3.
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# interface Ethernet 1/0/3
This example shows how to combine a time-range profile called “day-time” with the PoE port, ethernet 1/0/3.
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# interface Ethernet 1/0/3
Switch(config-if)# poe power-inline auto time-range day-time
