JNCIP-ENT: Juniper Networks Certified Professional – Enterprise Routing (2022) — Question 13

You configured static mode power management on an EX4300 to provide PoE power to telephone and access point equipment.
Which statement is correct regarding the PoE power budget?

Answer options

• A. Power is budgeted to devices on a first come, first served basis as devices are connected.
• B. The power budgeted will be based on the device class connected to each port.
• C. Power is budgeted to a port even if no device is connected to the port.
• D. The power budgeted to ports will adjust to how much power a device actually uses.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer, C, is true because static mode power management reserves power for each port regardless of whether a device is connected. Option A is incorrect as it implies a dynamic method of power allocation, while B suggests power is determined by device class, which is not applicable in static mode. Option D is also wrong as static power allocations do not adjust based on actual usage.
