Enterasys B5 CLI Reference 4-7
Usage
Ifthecapabilityofaportissetto802.3at,theportwillautomaticallydetectthepowerlevel
requiredbytheattachedpowereddeviceanddelivertherequiredlevel.
IfyouwanttodisablePoEonan RJ45portthatissharedwithacombofiberport,usethe
