power inline priority This command sets the power priority for specific ports. Use the no form to restore
the default setting.
Syntax
power inline priority priority
no power inline priority
priority - The power priority for the port.
Options: 1 (critical), 2 (high), or 3 (low)
Default Setting
3 (low)
Command Mode
Interface Configuration (ECS4120-28P Ethernet ports 1-24)
Command Usage
â—† If the power demand from devices connected to the switch exceeds the power
budget setting as determined during bootup, the switch uses port power
priority settings to control the supplied power. For example:
â–
A device connected to a low-priority port that causes the switch to exceed
its budget is not supplied power.
â–
If a device is connected to a critical or high-priority port that would cause
the switch to exceed its power budget as determined during bootup,
power is provided to the port only if the switch can drop power to one or
more lower-priority ports and thereby remain within its overall budget.
Power will be dropped from lower-priority ports starting in reverse
sequence from port number 24.
â–
If a device is connected to a port after the switch has finished booting up
and would cause the switch to exceed its budget, power will not be
provided to that port regardless of its priority setting.
â–
If priority is not set for any ports, and PoE consumption exceeds the
maximum power provided by the switch, power is shut down starting in
reverse sequence from port number 24.
Example
Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/1
Console(config-if)#power inline priority 2
