Power Over Ethernet (PoE) Operation for the Series 5300xl Switches
1. Use the walkmib pethPsePortType.< slot-# > command to determine the MIB-
based port number for the port to which you want to assign a Configured
Type identifier. On the 5300xl switches the slot numbering is as follows:
Note that in the MIB, 26 port numbers are assigned to each slot designa
tion. Thus, for example, with PoE modules in slots "A" and "B", the actual,
corresponding port numbers will be 1-24 and 27-50, respectively. (The port
numbers "25", "26", "51", and "52" are reserved.)
2. Use the setmib pethPsePortType.< slot-# >.< port-# > -D < identifier-string >
command to configure the identifier you want for a specific port.
For example, suppose that you have a PoE xl Module installed in slot B and
want to assign the identifier "Wireless-1" to port 1 in this slot. To do so, you
would use the following commands:
