PoE Time-Range apply

[xxbastias]

Hi,

I want to enable/disable PoE port status with time-range. I read the link below:

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/smb/switches/cisco-small-business-300-series-managed-switches/smb5660-configure-time-range-settings-on-a-switch-through-the-comman.html

And note note indicate:

• Time-Based Power over Ethernet (PoE) — PoE can be configured on the device for a specific period. This feature enables you to define, per port, the days in the week and the hours that PoE is enabled. When the time range is not active, PoE is disabled.

I create the time range, but how i apply the time range to a port/s? in configuration doesnt' explain this.

i want to do this in Cisco Catalyst CDB-8U.

thanks and regards,

Xavier

Hello,

I think you have to do this through the Energywise settings. Basically, you configure a time range, and then assign an energywise level (0 would be no power) to that time range on a port.

Here is an example:

CDB#conf t
CDB(config)#energywise domain EG_DOMAIN secret 0 password
CDB(config)#energywise management 43440
CDB(config)#interface Gigabitethernet1/0/3
CDB(config-if)#energywise level 0 recurrence importance 90 at 00 20 * * 1-6
CDB(config-if)#energywise level 10 recurrence importance 90 at 00 08 * * 1-6

This will turn POE power off on a port at 8PM, and turn it back on at at 8AM.

Check the section below:

HI,

Thanks for quick response!

In your configuration you already apply correctly time range (8Amn-8PM), so is it no necessary to configure another time-range like this?:

conf t
time-range poe_off
periodic daily 7:00 to 18:00 mon tue wed thu fri
end

Xavier

Hello,

I think you need two lines, one to turn it off, and one to turn it on.

Agree with Georg Pauwen and you need to enable EnergyWise.
Two statements are required, one to turn ON and another to turn OFF.

does the 300 series have the same GUI as the 200?
