Use either approach
z After a PoE configuration file is applied to a PoE interface, other PoE configuration files can not
take effect on this PoE interface.
z If a PoE configuration file is already applied to a PoE interface, you must execute the undo apply
poe-profile command to remove the application to the interface before deleting or modifying the
PoE configuration file.
z If you have configured a PoE interface through the command line, you cannot configure it through
a PoE configuration file again. If you want to reconfigure the interface through a PoE configuration
file, you must first remove the command line configuration on the PoE interface.
z You must use the same mode (command line or PoE configuration file) to configure the poe
max-power max-power and poe priority { critical | high | low } commands.
Configuring PoE Power Management
Configuring PD Power Management
The power priority of a PD depends on the priority of the PoE interface. The priority levels of PoE
interfaces include critical, high and low in descending order. Power supply to a PD is subject to PD
power management policies.
