and 30.0 W for PoE+. No dynamic PoE/PoE+ class detection performs on Static ports. The default
Power Management mode is static.
• pe pe-id — Specify the port extender ID. The range is from 0 to 255.
• stack-unit unit-number — Specify the stack unit number of the port extender. The range is from
0 to 7.
• Enable PoE and configure Power Management mode on a port extender.

Allocate PoE Power to Powered Devices to a Connected PE Interface
To enable inline power and configure the maximum power allocation and priority for the powered device
connected to a port extender interface, use the power inline {[max_milliwatts] | priority
{critical | high | low}} command in Interface mode. By default, power inline is disabled.
Port Prioritization
To specify the priority on a particular interface on the port extender, use the power inline priority
command. When you reduce the inline power available in a port extender, the lower priority interfaces
are disabled initially then the higher priority interfaces are disabled. Between equal priority ports, the port
number determines which port is assigned the higher priority. Port 0 has the highest priority and port 47
has the lowest priority. For more information, see Managing Power Priorities and Managing Ports using
Power Priority and the Power Budget.
On a port extender interface, you can configure one of the following priority levels: critical, high, and
low. By default, all ports are set to low.
When you reduce the available inline power, the order of priority for disabling the inline power to the
interfaces is as follows:
