Abstract
A method of managing power in a power over data network, the method includes, obtaining a first request for modification of a power consumption profile of a device connected to the network, when the modification entails a raise in the power consumption profile, determining whether the first request can be satisfied with regards to a current consumption situation over the network, and when it is determined that the first request cannot be satisfied, triggering a broadcast over the network of a second request for lowering a power consumption profile of at least one device connected to the network, and getting back to said determination step.
