4.6.1.3 Power over Ethernet Configuration
This section allows the user to inspect and configure the current PoE configuration settings, as Figure 4-6-1-2 appears.
Figure 4-6-1-2: PoE Configuration Screenshot
The page includes the following fields:
Object Description
• System PoE Admin
Mode
Allows user to enable or disable PoE function. It will causes all of PoE ports to
supply or not supply power.
• PoE Management
Mode
There are two modes for configuring how the ports/PDs may reserve power and
when to shut down ports.
Classification mode: System offers PoE power according to PD real power
consumption.
Allocation mode: Users are allowed to assign how much PoE power for
each port and system will reserve PoE power to PD.
• PoE Legacy Mode
In the legacy mode, the IEEE method will be tried first and if it fails to discover a
valid PD, the legacy capacitance measurement with a large capacitance value
will be used to detect a legacy PD. This mode is used to support legacy devices.
The default mode is IEEE mode. Enabled legacy mode could damage non-PD
devices.
