Setting a Switch Power Budget
A maximum PoE power budget for the switch (power available to all switch ports) can be defined so that
power can be centrally managed, preventing overload conditions at the power source.
If the power demand from devices connected to the switch exceeds the power budget setting, the switch uses
port power priority settings to limit the supplied power.
