Profile
On a large-sized network or a network with mobile users, to help network
administrators to monitor the PoE features of the switch, Switch 7750 Ethernet
switches provide the PoE profile features.
Features of PoE profile:
■ Various PoE profiles can be created. PoE policy configurations applicable to
different user groups are stored in the corresponding PoE profiles. These PoE
profiles can be applied to the ports used by the corresponding user groups.

in the PoE profile will be enabled on the port.
