Currently, the network devices are deployed flexibly; therefore,
the cabling of power supply is complicated. To simplify cabling, you
can configure the PoE function on the switch.
By default, the PoE function is enabled on all interfaces.
Procedure
Query power supply information on interfaces.
Choose System Management > PoE > Interface Parameter Settings in the navigation tree to open the Interface
Parameter Settings page.
Select an interface type from the drop-down list box.
Enter the interface number, for example, 0/0/1
(stack ID/sub-card ID/port number).
Click Query to display all matching
records.
Set power parameters on an interface.
Choose System Management > PoE > Interface Parameter Settings in the navigation tree to open the Interface
Parameter Settings page.
Select a record and click Configure. The Configure Power Parameters on Interface page is displayed.
Table 1 describes the parameters
on the Configure Power Parameters on Interface page.

Parameter
Description
Interface Name
Indicates the name of an interface. The interface name cannot
be modified. You can select multiple interfaces each time.
NOTE:
If only one interface is selected, the configuration
of the interface is displayed on the Configure Power Parameters
on Interface page. If multiple interfaces are selected,
the default settings of the interfaces are displayed.
Enable POE on Interface
Indicates whether to enable the PoE function on the interface.
The options are Enable and Disable.
By default, the PoE function is enabled. The PoE parameters
take effect only after the PoE function is enabled.
Max Output Power
Indicates the maximum output power of an interface.
Power Priority
Indicates the power priority of an interface. The options
are Low, High, and Critical.
By default, the power priority
of a PoE interface is low.
Manual Power Supply
Indicates the manual power supply mode. The options are
power on and power off.
You can manually power on and power
off the PD connected to an interface.
NOTE:
Before powering
on or off a PD, ensure that:
The PD is connected to an interface.
The PoE function is enabled on the interface.
If the PD on an interface has been powered on, an error message
is displayed after you power on the PD again.
If the PD on an interface has been powered off, an error message
is displayed after you power off the PD again.
