Allocation of PoE Power to Devices
TheS‐SeriesfirmwaredeterminesthepoweravailableintheSSAforPoEbasedonpowersupply
statusandpowersupplyredundancymode.Thesystemcalculatesandreservesthecorrect
amountofpowerrequiredbytheSSAandthenmakesthebalanceofpoweravailableforPoE.
Whenanychangeis
madetothepowersupplystatusorredundancymode,thefirmware
recalculatesthepoweravailableforPoE.
ThepoweravailableforPoEisdistributedbasedontheconfiguredallocationmode:
• Automaticmode(default),inwhichavailablepowerisdistributedev enly.Anychangein
availablepower,duetoachangeinpower
supplystatusorredundancymode,willtriggeran
automaticredistributionofpower.
• Manualmode,inwhichthepowerbudgetismanuallyconfigured,usingeitherCLI
commandsortheMIBs.Thewattageconfiguredcannotexceedthetotalpoweravailableon
theswitchforPoE.
Theconfiguredwattageassignmentisusedto
calculatethetotalavailablePoEpower.Ifthe
totalavailablePoEpowerchanges,aredistributionofavailablepowerwilloccur,applyingthe
calculatedpercentage.
IfthePoEpowerneededorrequestedexceedsthepoweravailable,thesystemwillgeneratean
SNMPtraptonotifythesystemmanager.

Power Distribution Upon Power Supply Removal or Addition
Whenapowersupplyisremoved,theSSArespondstothedecreaseinavailablepowerbydoing
thefollowing:
1. Detectingthepowersupplyremovalandrecalculatingavailablepower.
2. Subtractingthepowercapacityforitsbasesystemfromavailablepower.
3. DistributingremainingpowerequallyforPoE.
4. DroppingsupporttoPoEdevicesasnecessaryto
staywithintheprogrammedmaximum
power.
Whenapowersupplyisadded,theSSArespondstotheincreaseinavailablepowerbydoingthe
following:
1. Detectingthepowersupplyadditionandrecalculatingavailablepower.
2. Subtractingthepowercapacityforitsbasesystemfromavailablepower.
3. DistributingremainingpowerequallyforPoE.
