Abstract: A method for managing power consumption in a stackable switch system, the method comprises determining a power management strategy for a plurality of switches in a stackable switch system. The method also comprises determining, by a processor associated with a first switch of the stackable switch system, that at least one criterion for causing the second switch to enter a power save mode has been met, based on the determined power management strategy. The method further comprises providing a first command for causing a second switch of the stackable switch system to enter the power save mode. The method also comprises determining that at least one criterion for causing the second switch to exit the power save mode has been met, based on the determined power management strategy. The method further comprises providing a second command for causing the second switch to wake from the power save mode.

Abstract translation: 一种用于管理可堆叠交换机系统中的功耗的方法，所述方法包括确定可堆叠交换机系统中的多个交换机的功率管理策略。 该方法还包括通过与可堆叠交换机系统的第一交换机相关联的处理器，基于所确定的功率管理策略来确定用于使第二开关进入省电模式的至少一个准则。 该方法还包括提供使可堆叠交换机系统的第二交换机进入省电模式的第一命令。 该方法还包括基于所确定的功率管理策略来确定用于使第二开关退出节电模式的至少一个准则。 该方法还包括提供用于使第二开关从节电模式唤醒的第二命令。
