Chapter 11 Configuring Interface Characteristics
Configuring the Cisco Redundant Power System 2300
• You can configure the priority of an RPS 2300 port from 1 to 6. Specifying a value of 1 assigns the
port and its connected devices the highest priority and specifying a value of 6 assigns the port and
its connected devices the lowest priority.
If multiple switches connected to the RPS 2300 need power, the RPS 2300 provides power to the
switches with the highest priority. If the RPS 2300 still has power available, it can then provide
power to the switches with lower priorities.
Beginning in user EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure and manage the RPS 2300:
Command Purpose
Step 1
power rps switch-number name {string | serialnumber} Specify the name of the RPS 2300.
The keywords have these meanings:
• switch-number—Specify the stack member to
which the RPS 2300 is connected. The range
is 1 to 9, depending on the switch member
numbers in the stack. This keyword is supported
only on Catalyst 3750-E switches.
• name—Set the name of the RPS 2300 and enter
one of these options:
–
string—Specify the name such as port1 or
“port 1”. Using quotation marks before and
after the name is optional, but you must use
quotation marks if you want to include
spaces in the port name. The name can have
up to 16 characters.
–
serialnumber—Configure the switch to
use the RPS 2300 serial number as the
name.
Step 2
power rps switch-number port rps-port-id mode {active |
standby}
Specify the mode of the RPS 2300 port.
The keywords have these meanings:
• switch-number—Specify the stack member to
which the RPS 2300 is connected. The range
is 1 to 9, depending on the switch member
numbers in the stack. This keyword is supported
only on Catalyst 3750-E switches.
• port rps-port-id—Specify the RPS 2300 port.
The range is from 1 to 6.
• mode—Set the mode of the RPS 2300 port:
–
active—The RPS 2300 can provide the
power to a switch when the switch internal
power supply cannot.
–
standby—The RPS 2300 is not providing
power to a switch.
The default mode for RPS ports is active.
