Application Notes for Extreme Networks Alpine 3808 Power

over Ethernet (PoE) with Avaya 4600 Series IP Telephones

and Avaya Wireless Access Points – Issue 1.0

Abstract

These Application Notes describe the procedures for configuring the Extreme Networks

Alpine 3808 to provide inline Power over Ethernet (PoE) to Avaya 4600 Series IP Telephones

and Avaya Wireless Access Points. During compliance testing, Avaya IP Telephones and

Wireless Access Points successfully obtained power and transferred data over standard

Ethernet cables from an Alpine 3808 equipped with an Alpine FM-32Pi PoE Module.

Information in these Application Notes has been obtained through compliance testing and

additional technical discussions. Testing was conducted via the DeveloperConnection

Program at the Avaya Solution and Interoperability Test Lab.

1. Introduction Power over Ethernet (PoE) allows both power and data to be simultaneously carried over standard Ethernet cables. PoE-enabled Ethernet switches can supply power directly to Ethernet devices, thereby simplifying installation and removing the need for separate power supplies for those devices. The IEEE 802.

3. Configure Inline Power over Ethernet on the Extreme Networks Alpine 3808 Inline Power over Ethernet (PoE) is supported on the Alpine 3808 with addition of the Alpine FM-32Pi PoE Module. By default, PoE support is enabled on the system and on all slots. The following commands can be used to explicitly enable PoE support on both the system and a slot containing an Alpine FM-32Pi PoE Module. enable inline-power enable inline-power slot 5 Each PoE-capable port automatically detects 802.

backup to the external power source. Note that the internal power supply provides up to 32 Watts to the Alpine FM-32Pi PoE Module. configure inline-power backup-source internal slot 5 Enter the commands show inline-power configuration slot and show inline-power configuration ports to verify that PoE support is enabled on a slot and ports on a slot, respectively.

Enter the command show inline-power info ports to obtain inline power information for one or more ports. The output of the command displays the inline power state, detected 802.3af class, actual power consumption, and fault state on each specified port.

For the Avaya 4600 Series IP Telephone, verify that it successfully registers with Avaya Communication Manager and completes phone calls to other phones (assumes the IP telephone has been configured with the correct IP and call control information). 6.
