# Configuring global AES

Use this procedure to configure AES for a single switch or a stack

## Procedure

1. From the navigation tree, double-click Power Management
2. In the Power Management tree, click Energy Saver.
3. In the work area, click the Energy Saver Globals tab.
4. Select (to enable) or deselect (to disable) AES parameters as required.
5. On the toolbar, click Apply.
6. On the toolbar, you can click Refresh to update the work area data display.

## Variable Definitions

The following table outlines the parameters of the Energy Saver Globals tab.

Variable | Value
--- | ---
EnergySaverEnabled | Enables or disables energy saving for the switch.
PoePowerSavingEnabled | Enables or disables AES PoE power save mode for the switch. When enabled, AES PoE power saver mode provides the capability to control power consumption savings for only orts that have AES enabled, and PoE priority configured to low.
EfficiencyModeEnabled | Enables or disables AES efficiency mode for the switch. When enables, AES efficeincy mode enables AES globally and for each port, enables AES PoE power save mode, and configures AES scheduling to predetermined values (on time 18:00 and off time 07:30 daily). Important AES efficeincy mode overrides custom AES scheduling and PoE power saving mode. You will be prompted to confirm that you want to enable AES efficiency mode before proceeding.
EnergySaverActive | Activates or deactivates the Avaya Energy Saver.
