Manage PoE Ports and the Power Budget
The PoE power budget is affected differently depending on how PoE is enabled and whether a device is
connected:
1. When you configure a port with power inline auto without the max_milliwatts power limit option,
power is only allocated after you connect a device to the port.
• When you connect a device, the maximum power for the device class is allocated if there is
sufficient power in the budget. See Table 48 on page 575.
• If there is not enough power in the budget, the configuration is maintained and the port waits
for power to become available.
• If the device advertises its power requirement through LLDP-MED, then FTOS allocates the
required amount and returns the remaining amount to the budget.
Note: LLDP-MED TLVs are only honored if the port is configured with power inline auto (with or without
the max_milliwatts option).
2. When you configure a port with power inline auto with the power limit option max_milliwatts, power
is only allocated after you connect a device to the port.
• If the maximum power for the device class is less than the power limit you specified, FTOS
allocates the required amount and returns the remaining amount to the budget.
• If there is not enough power in the budget, the configuration is maintained and the port waits
for power to become available.
• If the maximum power for the device class is more than than the power limit you specified,
FTOS does not allocate any power.
Note: When a port is configured with power inline auto (with or without the max_milliwatts option) and
the PoE device is disconnected, the allocated power is returned to the power budget.
