So, after enabling LLDP on both my Cisco 2960X switches and my Aruba 7210 controllers, the Cisco switches are reserving high port wattage for my AP's.
This goes for both AP-225's and AP-315's. With LLDP off they show 15.4W both on the reserved power for the port (show power inline) and for actual AdminConsumption (show power inline interface...).
With LLDP on, the AdminConsumption shows the same 15.4W but with a show power inline command the Power column shows 23.8-24.5W of usage. I guess this is how much Cisco is reserving for the port. The problem is, that gets taken out of the total POE allotment for the switch and I then don't have enough power for additional ports.
Furthermore, on the Aruba controller with LLDP enabled both AP-225's and AP-315's report an LLDP Power of = Successfully negotiated at 20.2w. Isn't that high for 315's? Even for 225's that seems high for a single port.
I need LLDP on to successfully negotiate port-channels for my 225's but turning it on takes up too much of the power allotment on the switches. Is there any way to fix this?
