Chapter 5 Configuring Cisco EnergyWise
Managing Single Entities
EnergyWise Importance
Set the EnergyWise importance value on a PoE port or a switch to rank domain entities.
The range is from 1 to 100.
The default importance value is 1.
EnergyWise Names, Roles, and Keywords
Set an EnergyWise-specific entity name to identify the domain entity.
• For a PoE port, the default is a short version of the port name; for example, Gi1.1.2 for Gigabit
Ethernet 1/1/2.
• For a switch, the default is the hostname.
Set the role of the domain entity to differentiate it from other entities.
• For a PoE port, the default is interface.
• For a switch, the default is the model number.
Set at least one keyword describing an entity to differentiate it from other entities.
Configuration Guidelines
By default, EnergyWise is disabled.
When you add an entity to a domain, EnergyWise is enabled on the entity and its PoE ports.
Use the energywise level 0 interface configuration command to power off a PoE port.
You cannot use the energywise level 0 global configuration command to power off the entity.
If you schedule the entity to power on the PoE port at 7:00 a.m. (0700), the port powers on within 1
minute, between 7:00 a.m.(0700) and 7:01 a.m. (0701) local time.
PoE and EnergyWise Interactions
If the PoE port mode is never, the port power is off, but EnergyWise is not disabled. You can
• Configure EnergyWise on the port.
• Configure the port power level. The level takes effect after you change the port mode to auto or
static. You do not need to restart the switch.
If EnergyWise is disabled, the entity can use PoE to manage port power.
