Power Over Ethernet Commands
enable inline-power ports
enable inline-power [ports all | <portlist>]
Description
Enables power provided by all system ports or specified ports.
Syntax Description
Default
Enable.
Usage Guidelines
You can control whether inline power is provided by all system ports or specified ports by using the
disable inline-power [ports all | <portlist>] command and the enable inline-power [ports all |
<portlist>] command. Using the enable inline-power [ports all | <portlist>] command makes power
available to all system ports or specified ports. Using the disable inline-power [ports all | <portlist>]
command shuts down power currently provided by all system ports or specified ports. The system
defaults to enabling power on all 10/100 ports.
To power any port, the following conditions must be met:
• The system must be enabled for power.
• The slot must be enabled for power.
• The ports must be enabled for power.
Disabling a port providing power to a powered device (PD) immediately removes power to the PD.
Example
The following command enables power currently provided by port 2 on slot 3:
enable inline-power 3:2
