Chapter 7 Establishing Switch Access Establishing a Modem (PPP) Connection with the P330 Overview Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) provides a Layer 2 method for transporting multiprotocol datagrams over modem links. Connecting a Modem to the Console Port A PPP connection with a modem can be established only after the Avaya P330 is configured with an IP address and net-mask, and the PPP parameters used in the Avaya P330 are compatible with the modem’s PPP parameters.
Chapter 8 User Authentication Introduction A secure system provides safeguards to insure that only authorized personnel can perform configuration procedures. In Avaya P330, these safeguards form part of the CLI architecture and conventions. Security Levels There are four security access levels – User, Privileged, Configure and Supervisor. • The User level (‘read-only’) is a general access level used to show system parameter values.
Chapter 8 User Authentication Note: The Web management passwords are the same as those of the CLI. If you change the passwords of the CLI then those passwords become active for Web management as well. Entering the Supervisor Level The Supervisor level is the level in which you first enter P330 CLI and establish user names for up to 10 local users. When you enter the Supervisor level, you are asked for a Login name.
Chapter 8 User Authentication Entering the CLI To enter the CLI, enter your username and password.
Chapter 8 User Authentication All transactions between the RADIUS client and server are authenticated through the use of a “shared secret” which is not sent over the network. The shared secret is an authentication password configured on both the RADIUS client and its RADIUS servers. The shared secret is stored as clear text in the client’s file on the RADIUS server, and in the non-volatile memory of the P330.
Chapter 8 User Authentication Radius Commands The following radius commands are accessible from Supervisor level. In order to... Use the following command... Enable or disable authentication for the P330 switch. RADIUS authentication is disabled by default set radius authentication Set a primary or secondary RADIUS server IP address set radius authentication server Configure a character string to be used as a “shared secret” between the switch and the RADIUS server.
Chapter 8 User Authentication Allowed Managers With the Allowed Managers feature, the network manager can determine who may or may not gain management access to the switch. The feature can be enabled or disabled (default is disabled). When enabled, only those users that are configured in the Allowed Managers table are able to gain Telnet, HTTP, and SNMP management access to the switch. You can configure up to 20 Allowed Mangers by adding or removing their IP address from the Allowed Managers List.

Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features This section describes the Avaya P330 Layer 2 features. It provides the basic procedures for configuring the P330 for Layer 2 operation. Overview The P330 family supports a range of Layer 2 features. Each feature has CLI commands associated with it. These commands are used to configure, operate, or monitor switch activity for each of the Layer 2 features. This section of the User’s Guide explains each of the features.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Fast Ethernet Fast Ethernet is a newer version of Ethernet, supporting data transfer rates of 100 Mbps. Fast Ethernet is sufficiently similar to Ethernet to support the use of most existing Ethernet applications and network management tools. Fast Ethernet is also known as 100BASE-T (over copper) or 100BASE-FX (over fiber). Fast Ethernet is standardized as IEEE 802.3u. Gigabit Ethernet Gigabit Ethernet supports data rates of 1 Gbps.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Flow Control The process of adjusting the flow of data from one device to another to ensure that the receiving device can handle all of the incoming data. This is particularly important where the sending device is capable of sending data much faster than the receiving device can receive it. There are many flow control mechanisms. One of the most common flow control protocols, used in Ethernet full-duplex, is called xon-xoff.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features • MM-MM-MM-SS-SS-SS The first half of a MAC address contains the ID number of the device manufacturer. These IDs are regulated by an Internet standards body. The second half of a MAC address represents the serial number assigned to the device by the manufacturer. CAM Table The CAM Table contains a mapping of learned MAC addresses to port and VLANs.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features In order to... Use the following command... Set the priority level of a port set port level Display settings and status for all ports show port Display per-port status information related to flow control show port flowcontrol Display the flow control advertisement for a Gigabit port used to perform auto-negotiation show port auto-negotiationflowcontrol-advertisement Display the CAM table entries for a specific port show cam Clear all the CAM entries.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features VLAN Configuration VLAN Overview A VLAN is made up of a group of devices on one or more LANs that are configured so that they operate as if they form an independent LAN, when in fact they may be located on a number of different LAN segments. VLANs can be used to group together departments and other logical groups, thereby reducing network traffic flow and increasing security within the VLAN.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Marketing (Mktg). Each VLAN has several physical ports assigned to it with PC’s connected to those ports. When traffic flows from a PC on the Sales VLAN for example, that traffic is only forwarded out the other ports assigned to that VLAN. Thus, the Engineering and Mktg VLANs are not burdened with processing that traffic. Figure 11.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features three available Port Multi-VLAN binding modes are: • Bind to All - the port is programmed to support the entire 3K VLANs range. Traffic from any VLAN is forwarded through a port defined as “Bind to All”. This is intended mainly for easy backbone link configuration • Bind to Configured - the port supports all the VLANs configured in the switch/stack. These may be either Port VLAN IDs (PVID) or VLANs that were manually added to the switch.
Chapter 11 Figure 11.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features VLAN CLI Commands The following table contains a list of the CLI commands for the VLAN feature. The rules of syntax and output examples are all set out in detail in the Reference Guide. Table 11.2 62 VLAN CLI Commands In order to... Use the following command...
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features VLAN Implementation in the Avaya P332G-ML This section describes the implementation of the VLAN feature in the Avaya P332GML: • No.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Spanning Tree Protocol Overview Avaya P330 devices support both common Spanning Tree protocol (802.1d) and the enhanced Rapid Spanning Tree protocol (802.1w). The 802.1w is a faster and more sophisticated version of the 802.1d (STP) standard. Spanning Tree makes it possible to recover connectivity after an outage within a minute or so. RSTP, with its “rapid” algorithm, can restore connectivity to a network where a backbone link has failed in much less time.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) About the 802.1w Standard The enhanced feature set of the 802.1w standard includes: • Bridge Protocol Data Unit (BPDU) type 2 • New port roles: Alternate port, Backup port • Direct handshaking between adjacent bridges regarding a desired topology change (TC). This eliminates the need to wait for the timer to expire. • Improvement in the time it takes to propagate TC information.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Note: You must manually configure uplink and backbone ports (including LAG logical ports) to be "non-edge" ports, using the CLI command set port edge admin state. • Point-to-point Link ports — This port type applies only to ports interconnecting RSTP compliant switches and is used to define whether the devices are interconnected using shared Ethernet segment or pont-to-point Ethernet link.
Chapter 11 • Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features The 802.1w standard defines differently the default path cost for a port compared to STP (802.1d). In order to avoid network topology change when migrating to RSTP, the STP path cost is preserved when changing the spanning tree version to RSTP. You can use the default RSTP port cost by using the CLI command set port spantree cost auto. Spanning Tree Protocol CLI Commands The following table contains a list of CLI commands for the Spanning Tree feature.

Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features MAC Aging Overview The MAC Aging feature allows the user to configure a time interval after which unused entries in the MAC Table will be deleted. Configuring the P330 for MAC Aging This section describes the configuration of the P330 for the MAC Aging functionality. • MAC Aging is configured on the stack level. • MAC Aging can be globally enabled/disabled using the set mac-aging command. — After firmware upgrade to version 4.0, MAC Aging default state is disabled.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features LAG LAG Overview A LAG uses multiple ports to create a high bandwidth connection with another device. For example: Assigning four 100BASE-T ports to a LAG on an Avaya P330 allows the switch to communicate at an effective rate of 400 Mbps with another switch. LAGs provide a cost-effective method for creating a high bandwidth connection. LAGs also provide built-in redundancy for the ports that belong to a LAG.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features LAG Implementation in the Avaya P330 Family of Products This section describes the implementation of the LAG feature in the P330 Family of products. With the P332G-ML you can aggregate the bandwidth of groups of up to four 1000Base-X ports in a LAG, or pairs of adjacent 1000Base-X ports within a group, for a maximum of 6 LAGs per switch.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Port Redundancy Port redundancy involves the duplication of devices, services, or connections, so that, in the event of a failure, the redundant device, service, or connection can take over for the one that failed. In addition to Link Aggregation Groups—which comprise the basic redundancy mechanism within the switch—the P330 offers an additional port redundancy scheme.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features — “switchback-interval” — the minimum time (in seconds) that the primary port link has to be up (following failure) before the system switches back to the primary port. The “none” parameter, if configured, prevents switching back to the primary. Intermodule Port Redundancy The intermodule port redundancy feature supports one pair of redundant ports per stack.
Chapter 11 74 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features In order to... Use the following command... Disable the defined port redundancy schemes set port redundancy disable Define the timers that control the port redundancy operation set port redundancy-interval Display information on port redundancy schemes.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features IP Multicast Filtering Overview IP Multicast is a method of sending a single copy of an IP packet to multiple destinations. It can be used by different applications including video streaming and video conferencing. The Multicast packet is forwarded from the sender to the recipients, duplicated only when needed by routers along the way and sent in multiple directions such that it reaches all the members of the Multicast group.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features IP Multicast CLI Commands The following table contains a list of the CLI commands for the IP Multicast feature. The rules of syntax and output examples are all set out in detail in the Reference Guide. Table 11.7 IP Multicast CLI Commands In order to... Use the following command...
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Weighted Queuing The Weighted Queuing feature allows the user to configure the priority scheme between the internal priority queues as “Strict Priority” or to configure it as a Weighted Round Robin (WRR) scheme, with user-configurable weights. Note: If the queuing scheme commands are to be implemented on a P330-ML switch other than the stack master, a session should be opened to the relevant switch.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Table 11.8 78 Weighted Queuing CLI Commands In order to... Use the following command...
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Stack Health The P330 software provides a Stack Helath feature for verifying the integrity of the P330 stack cascading module and cables. Overview The Stack Health feature will identify defective modules and cables that may be installed in the P330 stack. The Stack Health algorithm separately checks all stacking modules and the Octaplane connections (including Redundant cable).
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Port Classification Overview With the P330, you can classify any port as regular or valuable. Setting a port to valuable means that, in case of Ethernet link failure of that port, a link fault trap can be sent even when the port is disabled and a fast aging operation on the CAM table will be performed.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Stack Redundancy In the unlikely event that a P330 switch or Octaplane link should fail, stack integrity is maintained if the redundant cable is connected to the stack. The broken link is bypassed and data transmission continues uninterrupted. The single management IP address for the stack is also preserved for uninterrupted management and monitoring.

Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features Introduction This section describes the Avaya P330 Layer 3 features. It provides the basic procedures for configuring the P330 for Layer 3 operation. Note: Layer 3 features are relevant to P332G-ML operating in router mode. You must purchase a Layer 3 preconfigured P332G-ML module or a Routing License Key Certificate for the P332G-ML in order to operate the P332G-ML in router mode.
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features the next hop and transmits the packet. The next hop may or may not be the ultimate destination host. If not, the next hop is usually another router, which executes the same switching decision process. As the packet moves through the internetwork, its physical address changes but its protocol address remains constant. This process is illustrated in the figure below. Figure 12.
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features Routing Configuration Forwarding The P330 forwards IP packets between IP networks. When it receives an IP packet through one of its interfaces, it forwards the packet through one of its interfaces. The P330 supports multinetting, enabling it to forward packets between IP subnets on the same VLAN as well as between different VLANs. Forwarding is performed through standard means in Router mode.

Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features RIP (Routing Interchange Protocol) Configuration RIP Overview RIP is a “distance vector protocol”— that is, the router decides which path to use on distance (the number of intermediate hops). In order for this protocol to work correctly, all of the routers (and possibly the nodes) need to gather information on how to reach each destination in the Internet.
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features RIP2 RIP2 overcomes some of the shortcomings of RIP. The table below summarizes the differences between RIP and RIP2. Table 12.1 DIfferences Between RIP and RIP2 RIP2 RIP Multicast addressing Broadcast Addressing Event-driven Timer-based (update every 30 seconds) VLSM support (subnet information transmitted) Fixed subnet masks RIP CLI Commands In order to... Use the following command...
Chapter 12 94 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features In order to... Use the following command...
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) Configuration OSPF Overview OSPF is a routing protocol developed for IP networks based on the shortest path first or link-state algorithm. It was introduced to overcome the limitations of RIP in increasingly complex network designs. OSPF is based on the cost of a particular path. In contrast, RIP uses hops as a path criterion. Also, updates are sent on a “need to know” basis rather than every 30 seconds as with RIP.
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features OSPF CLI Commands 96 In order to... Use the following command...
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features Static Routing Configuration Static Routing Overview When dynamic routing protocols (RIP or OSPF) are not appropriate, you can manually configure static routes to indicate the next hop on the path to the final packet destination. A static route becomes inactive if the interface over which it is defined is disabled. When the interface is enabled, the static route becomes active again.
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features Static Routing Configuration CLI Commands In order to... Use the following command...
Chapter 12 2 3 4 5 6 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features High-preference static (manually configured routes) OSPF internal routes RIP OSPF external routes Low-preference static (manually configured routes).
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features Route Redistribution Route redistribution is the interaction of multiple routing protocols. OSPF and RIP can be operated concurrently in the P330. In this case, the P330 can be configured to redistribute routes learned from one protocol into the domain of the other routing protocol. Similarly, static routes may be redistributed to RIP and to OSPF.
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) Table Configuration ARP Overview IP logical network addresses are independent of physical addresses. Since the physical address must be used to convey data in the form of a frame from one device to another, a mechanism is required to acquire a destination device hardware address from its IP address. This mechanism/ability is called ARP (Address Resolution Protocol).
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features The ARP Table The ARP table is used to store recently used pairs of IP/MAC addresses. This saves time and communication costs, since the host looks in the ARP cache first when transmitting a packet. If the information is not there, then the host sends an ARP Request (see Figure 12.2). ARP CLI Commands 102 In order to... Use the following command...
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features BOOTP/DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Relay Configuration BOOTP/DHCP Overview BOOTP Short for Bootstrap Protocol, BootP is an Internet protocol that enables a diskless workstation to discover its own IP address, the IP address of a BOOTP server on the network, and a file to be loaded into memory to boot the machine. This enables the workstation to boot without requiring a hard or floppy disk drive.
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features The DHCP/BOOTP server uses the relayed network information to decide from which subnet the address should be allocated. Therefore, the DHCP/BOOTP server must be configured to allocate addresses from the relayed networks configured on the P330. DHCP/BOOTP Relay in P330 is configurable per VLAN and allows you to specify two DHCP/BOOTP servers. In this case, it duplicates each request, and sends it to both servers.
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features NetBIOS Re-broadcast Configuration NetBIOS Overview Short for Network Basic Input Output System, an application programming interface (API) that augments the DOS BIOS by adding special functions for localarea networks (LANs). Almost all LANs for PCs are based on the NetBIOS. Some LAN manufacturers have even extended it, adding additional network capabilities. The Avaya P330 can be configured to relay netbios UDP broadcast packets.
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features VRRP (Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol) Configuration VRRP Overview VRRP is an IETF protocol designed to support redundancy of routers on the LAN, as well as load balancing of traffic. VRRP is transparent to host stations, making it an ideal choice when redundancy, load balancing and ease of configuration are all required. The concept underlying VRRP is that a router can backup other routers, in addition to performing its primary routing functions.
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features VRRP Configuration Example 1 Figure 12.3 VRRP Configuration Example (Case 1, Case 2) Backup Router 2 VRID: 2, IP: 30.30.30.2 Ass. IP: 30.30.30.1 IP: 20.20.20.10 DG: 20.20.20.1 VMAC: 0005E000102 (VRID) Main Router 1 VRID: 1, IP: 20.20.20.1=Ass. IP IP: 30.30.30.20 IP: 30.30.30.10 DG: 30.30.30.1 IP: 20.20.20.20 Backup Router 1 VRID: 1, IP: 20.20.20.2 Ass. IP: 20.20.20.1 VMAC: 00005E000101 (VRID) Main Router 2 VRID: 2, IP: 30.30.30.1=Ass.
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features • • • • • The virtual router IP address needs to be configured as Default Gateway on the stations The MAC which will be advertised by the Main router as a response to the stations ARP requests, will be a 6 bytes Virtual MAC address in the format 00.00.5E.00.01.VRID. In the meantime, the redundant router will use a VRRP polling protocol (not ping as in SRRP) to check the Main router integrity in one second intervals (default). Otherwise it will be idle.
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features In order to... Use the following command... Set or disable the virtual router simple password authentication for the virtual router ID.
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features SRRP Configuration SRRP Overview Avaya P330 IP SRRP redundancy capabilities provide automatic backup Layer 3 switching for IP stations. P330 units can be configured to back each other up so that if one fails the other will take over its forwarding functions. The backup P330 is not idle. As long as both P330 units are functional, traffic is shared between them. The P330 can back up another P330 unit or any other router.
Chapter 12 • Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features The main difference between the VRRP and SRRP is the capability of the first protocol to provide mutual redundancy among any number of routers supporting the protocol while the SRRP is one direction protocol SRRP CLI Commands In order to... Use the following command...
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features Policy Configuration Policy Configuration Overview The P330 supports QoS (Quality of Service) by using multiple priority levels and IEEE 802.1p priority tagging to ensure that data and voice receive the necessary levels of service. The Avaya P330 can enforce QoS policy on routed packets and change their 802.
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features Policy Configuration CLI Commands In order to... Use the following command... Set the default action for a given Policy List. ip access-default-action Create an access-list rule in a specific Access List. ip access-list Set the source list, destination list, and destination module for copying an entire Policy List ip access-list-copy Set the DSCP-to-COS mapping.

Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features IP Fragmentation and Reassembly IP Fragmentation and Reassembly Overview The P330 supports IP Fragmentation and Reassembly. This feature allows the router to send and receive large IP packets where the underlying data link protocol constrains MTU (maximum transport unit). IP fragmentation involves breaking a datagram into a number of pieces that can be reassembled later.
Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features Layer 3 Configuration File The Configuration File feature allows the user to read the routing configuration parameters and save them to a file on the station. The routing configuration commands in the file are in CLI format. The user can edit the file (if required) and re-configure the router module by downloading the configuration file. Although the file can be edited, it is recommended to keep changes to the file to a minimum.
