456 Green Ethernet Commands
green-mode energy-detect
This command enables a Dell proprietary mode of power reduction on ports
that are not connected to another interface. Use the green-mode energy-
detect command in Interface Configuration mode to enable energy-detect
mode on an interface or all the interfaces. Energy-detect mode is disabled by
default on 1G copper interfaces and enabled by default on 10G copper
interfaces.
Energy-detect mode is only available on select PowerConnect switches. Refer
to your switch data sheet for information about energy-detect mode support.
On combo ports, it is possible to configure energy-detect mode even if the
fiber port is enabled. If enabled, energy-detect mode will become active when
the copper port is used.
Use the no form of the command to disable energy-detect mode on the
interface(s). Energy-detect mode cannot be disabled on 10G copper
interfaces.
