A PoE profile is a collection of configurations that contain multiple PoE features. On large networks, you
can apply a PoE profile to multiple PoE interfaces, and these interfaces have the same PoE features. If the
PoE interface connecting to a PD changes to another one, instead of reconfiguring the features defined
in the PoE profile one by one, you can apply the PoE profile from the original interface to the current one,
simplifying the PoE configurations.
The device supports up to 100 PoE profiles. You can define PoE configurations based on each PD, save
the configurations for different PDs into different PoE profiles, and apply the PoE profiles to the access
interfaces of PDs accordingly.
Configuring a PoE profile
If a PoE profile is applied, it cannot be deleted or modified before you cancel its application.
The poe max-power max-power and poe priority { critical | high | low } commands must be configured
in only one way (either at the CLI or by configuring PoE profile).
A PoE parameter on a PoE interface must be configured, modified and deleted in only one way. If a
parameter configured in a way (for example, at the CLI) is then configured in the other way (for example,
through PoE profile), the latter configuration fails and the original one is still effective. To make the latter
configuration effective, you must cancel the original one first.

Command Remarks
1. Enter system view.

2. Create a PoE profile, and
enter PoE profile view.

3. Enable PoE for the PoE
interface.
poe enable By default, this function is disabled.
4. Configure the maximum
power for the PoE interface.
poe max-power max-power
Optional.
The default is 15400 milliwatts.
5. Configure PoE power supply
mode for the PoE interface.
poe mode signal
Optional.
The default is signal (power over
signal cables).
6. Configure power supply
priority for the PoE interface.
poe priority { critical | high | low }
Optional.
The default is low.
Applying a PoE profile
You can apply a PoE profile in either system view or interface view. If you perform application to a PoE
interface in both views, the latter application takes effect. To apply a PoE profile to multiple PoE interfaces,
the system view is more efficient.
A PoE profile can be applied to multiple PoE interfaces, while a PoE interface can be applied with only
one PoE profile.
To apply the PoE profile in system view:
