2-12 PoE Profile ConfigurationIntroduction to PoE ProfileOn a large-sized network or a network with mobile users, to help network administrators to monitor thePoE features of the switch, S5100-SI/EI series Ethernet switches provide the PoE profile features. APoE profile is a set of PoE configurations, including multiple PoE features.Features of PoE profile:z Various PoE profiles can be created. PoE policy configurations applicable to different user groupsare stored in the corresponding PoE profiles. These PoE profiles can be applied to the ports usedby the corresponding user groups.z When users connect a PD to a PoE-profile-enabled port, the PoE configurations in the PoE profilewill be enabled on the port.PoE Profile ConfigurationConfiguring PoE ProfileTable 2-1 Configure PoE profileOperation Command DescriptionEnter system view system-view —Create a PoE profile and enter PoE profileviewpoe-profileprofilenameRequiredIf the PoE file is created,you will enter PoE profileview directly through thecommand.Enable the PoE featureon a port poe enable RequiredDisabled by default.Configure PoE mode forEthernet portspoe mode { signal |spare }Optionalsignal by default.Configure the PoE priorityfor Ethernet portspoe priority { critical |high | low }Optionallow by default.Configure therelevantfeatures in PoEprofileConfigure the maximumpower for Ethernet portspoe max-powermax-powerOptional15,400 mW by default.Quit system view quit —Apply theexisting PoEprofile to thespecifiedEthernet portIn system viewapply poe-profileprofile-name interfaceinterface-typeinterface-number [ tointerface-typeinterface-number ]Use either approach.
