inline power overdrive

Allows Ruckus PDs to negotiate for power greater than 30-watt allocation on PoE+ ports and greater than 60-watt on PoH ports.
Syntax

In Global configuration mode:

inline power ethernet unit/slot/port overdrive
no inline power ethernet unit/slot/port overdrive

In Interface configuration mode:

inline power overdrive
no inline power overdrive
Command Default

PoE overdrive is disabled by default; but for Ruckus PDs, PoE overdrive is auto-enabled.

Modes

Global configuration mode

Interface configuration mode

Usage Guidelines

PoE overdrive on PoE+ ports is available only for Ruckus PDs.

When Ruckus PDs negotiate for power greater than 30-watt allocation on PoE+ ports that support overdrive through LLDP-MED messages, PoE overdrive gets automatically enabled. When the PD that requires overdrive is disconnected, the port mode changes back to non-overdrive mode.

When the port mode dynamically changes to overdrive mode, the PD gets reloaded. To avoid PD reload, manually apply the inline power overdrive configuration on the port before connecting the PD.

The maximum power that can be processed based on LLDP-MED negotiation is limited to the hardware capability of the PSE.

Ruckus PDs use uPoE when connected to PoH ports.

The no form of the command reduces the power allocation from 95 watts to 60 watts for PoH ports.

Examples

The following example configures PoE overdrive on a specific port in global configuration mode. 

device#configure terminal
device(config)#inline power ethernet 1/1/1 overdrive

The following example configures PoE overdrive on a range of ports in interface configuration mode. 

device#configure terminal
device(config)#interface ethernet 1/1/1 to 1/1/5
device(config-mif-1/1/1-1/1/5)#inline power overdrive
