The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Effective Cisco IOS XE Release 3.16S, the Cisco ASR-920-12SZ-IM Aggregation Services Router supports Power over Ethernet (PoE). PoE is the ability for any LAN switching infrastructure to provide power over a copper Ethernet cable to an endpoint or powered device.
The Cisco ASR-920-12SZ-IM Router uses the inline power as well as a global pool of power to power the modules, fans and other subsystems in the router. This power is alloted to all the powered devices detected on a first-come-first-serve basis. However, but if many devices are connected, and a new device is added to the system, the system may run out of power to allot to the new device. Over-subscription of power could also result in tripping the power supplies and bringing down modules or even the entire router. In such cases, PoE can manage power allocation.
 Note |
In the Cisco ASR-920-12SZ-IM Router, the dual power supplies function in redundant power mode. |
PoE supports the following two modes of operations:
To install or upgrade a license by using the license install command, you must have already received the license file from the Cisco Product License Registration portal at www.cisco.com/go/license (or you already backed up the license by using the license save command).
Router# license install bootflash:upoe.lic
Installing licenses from “bootflash:upoe.lic”
Installing...Feature:UPOE...Successful:Not Supported
1/1 licenses were successfully installed
0/1 licenses were existing licenses
0/1 licenses were failed to install
Router(config)# license feature upoe
For more information on installing licenses, see Configuring the Cisco IOS Software Activation Feature.
PoE can be enabled only through the PoE license. As the PoE ports are controlled by the Port License, you must enable the PoE Port License as well as the PoE license to use this feature. Once you install the PoE license and enable the feature, the router attempts to detect and classify PoE on those PoE ports that are in ADMIN_UP state and the link state in DOWN state.
| Step 1 |
In the global config mode, select the interface to configure. Example: |
| Step 2 |
To determine how inline power is applied to the device on the specified port, use the power inline command: Example:Use one of the following options with the above command: auto —Enables the device discovery protocol and applies power to the device, if found. four-pair —Enables the four-pair mode. never —Disables the device discovery protocol and stops supplying power to the device. police —Enables inline power policing; optional if entering the no form of the command. Default is disabled. static —High priority PoE interface. The Cisco ASR-920-12SZ-IM Router preallocates power to the interface, even when nothing is connected, guaranteeing that there will be power for the interface. You can specify the maximum wattage that is allowed on the interface using the power inline static max value command. If you do not specify a wattage, the switch preallocates the hardware-supported maximum value of 60 W. If the switch does not have enough power for the allocation, the command will fail, after which you must execute the shut/no shut command to initiate the detection of the powered device. max —(Optional) This parameter configures the maximum power that a powered device can draw. |
| Step 3 |
If the interfaces tries to draw more power than negotiated through LLDP, the power inline police action errdisable command sets the port to errdisable mode. Example: |
| Step 4 |
Exit the configuration mode by running: Example: |
