Editing Port PoE Settings
To modify the PoE settings for a port:
1 Select a port to edit from the table.
2 Click the Edit button. The PoE Edit screen shows the port PoE status, Priority and Power Limit.
3 Check the Enable PoE checkbox to configure the selected port to use Power over Ethernet. To disable
PoE on a port, uncheck this box.
4 Select the Priority level for PoE on this port. The Priority level is used in cases where the controller’s
PoE power consumption exceeds the available power. When this happens, ports with higher Priority
levels will be given precedence over those with a lower Priority level.
5 Set the Power Limit (in watts) for this port’s PoE usage. Setting the Power Limit places a cap on the
maximum amount of power which can be drawn from the selected port.
