The time configuration can be disruptive. Configuring chassis settings You can configure the following settings for a chassis: • Power • Network • Network Services • Local Access Configuration • Location • Quick Deploy Configure chassis power To configure the chassis power settings: 1. Click Devices > Chassis > View Details > Settings > Power. The Power configuration section is expanded. 2. Select Enable Power Cap to specify the maximum power consumption capacity for the chassis. The Power Cap limits the power consumption of the chassis. When the power cap is reached, the sleds are throttled based on their power priority. You can specify the capacity in Watts, BTU/h, or percentage. The Power Cap option is displayed only if the Enable Power Cap check box is selected. The recommended power cap is 0-32767 Watts or 0-100 %. If you change the power cap in BTU/h, the power cap in W also changes. MX7000 chassis supports power sources of 110 Volts and 220 Volts. 3.

Power

The

Power

configuration section is expanded.

Select

Enable Power Cap

to specify the maximum power consumption capacity for the chassis. The

Power Cap

limits the power

consumption of the chassis. When the power cap is reached, the sleds are throttled based on their power priority. You can specify the

capacity in Watts, BTU/h, or percentage. The

Power Cap

option is displayed only if the

Enable Power Cap

check box is selected.

The recommended power cap is 0-32767 Watts or 0-100 %. If you change the power cap in BTU/h, the power cap in W also changes.

MX7000 chassis supports power sources of 110 Volts and 220 Volts.
