Power Mode Management on PTX10002-36QDD
PTX10002-36QDD router supports two power supply units (PSUs) with 1 + 1 PSU redundancy. The operating mode of PTX10002-36QDD depends on the type (3000 W or 2200 W) of PSUs present in the system. Two 3000 W PSUs are required for the system to operate in normal power mode with 1 + 1 PSU redundancy. If one of the PSUs is absent, the system does not support 1 + 1 redundancy and determines the operating mode based on the available PSU. When you use a 2200 W PSU, the system operates in the low power mode.
You can also force the system to operate in low power mode when 3000 W PSUs are present, by using the following CLI command:
set chassis mode power-optimized
You must reboot the system for the mode change to take effect.
This configuration reduces the power consumption of the device. See the following
