2690 switch turning poe on and off on a single port

[roncro]

Hello,

is it possible to  turn on/off poe on a single port on a 2690s switch?  (I want to restart a device that runs on  poe).

thanks,

Ron

Either disable the port or use the command

power inline NEVER

to turn PoE off.  To turn PoE back on,

no power inline never

[roncro]

I want to do that for only one specific port though,  not all ports.  So what would the command be for that?

I do not have the capacity to write long and fluffy responses.  My responses are short and easy-to-understand.  

My first response answers the question very accurately about how to disable PoE on a specific port.  All it takes is for someone to read it and understand it.

To do so, apply that command under port interface, aka interface mode

config t
interface FastEthernet0/1
power inline never
exit

but not under global mode

Config t

You meant c2960 switch, right? you should just bounce the port (shut, no shut); is that not an option? 

Cisco Doc says you cannot turn off PoE per port but there are 2 commands.

energywise level 0

where 0 is no power, 1-hibernate,2-standby, etc.  Try /test it to see if that works.  If that does not work or it;s not supported, look at other option such as

power inline

,

power inline never

(use ? to find more)

Yes,  a C2690S  I can do that,  BUT  does that keep the port configuration intact so I don't have to re-configure that port again?

[Martin L]

Yes, port configuration will remain intact when u shut and no shut port and Also when u run command 

power inline never

to erase configuration from port u would have to use

interface xyz default 

command, or manually add no like following

no power inline never

in front of any command u want apply.
