PoE on HPE Aruba 2530-48G

[chupacabra]

Contemplating buying a couple of HPE Aruba 2530-48G PoE (J9772A) switches for a small office. We'll be transitioning to IP phones, so we need PoE. I'm wondering if it's possible to turn off/disable PoE on specific ports.

Hello, 

Yes, it is possible to disable PoE on specific ports. In the CLI you can use the following sequence of commands to disable PoE on port 1 (as an example)

config   (you are entering global configuration context with this command)

interface 1 (you are entering port 1 configuration context with this command)

no power-over-ethernet

If you want to enable PoE you just leave out the no in the command. so the command will be - power-over-ethernet.

You can do the same for multiple ports with one command

config   (you are entering global configuration context with this command)

interface 1-24 (you are entering  configuration context for all ports 1 to 24 with this command)

no power-over-ethernet

Non contiguous ports can also be added and separated by commas. 

interface 1-24,28,30-48
