legacy-inline-power (Interface)

Enables legacy power-consuming device detection at the port level.
Syntax
legacy-inline-power
no legacy-inline-power
Command Default

PoE support for legacy power-consuming devices are not enabled by default.

Modes

Interface subtype configuration mode

Usage Guidelines

Do not enable this command on ports where power-consuming devices are not connected.

With global configuration enabled, if the legacy-inline-power is configured at the interface level, it will be displayed in the interface level running configuration. Port-level legacy power-consuming device detection cannot be disabled from the global configuration mode. That is, when the legacy-inline-power configuration is removed globally (from enable configuration), it is not required for the user to configure legacy-inline power on the individual ports where it was already enabled.

By default, the legacy-inline-power command reserves 30 watts.

When the legacy support is disabled, 802.3af- and 802.3at-compliant devices are not affected.

The no form of the command disables support for PoE legacy power-consuming devices.

Examples

The following example enables support for legacy power-consuming devices on a specific interface. 

device# configure terminal
device(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/1
device(config-if-e1000-1/1/1)# legacy-inline-power
