The Avaya P550R/P580/P880/P882 Multiservice switches support
the following software features:
Virtual Bridging Functions
Flood Pruning Using VLANs
Hunt Groups
OpenTrunk Technology
Three Spanning Tree Modes
Buffer and Queue Management
All multiservice switches are designed to support:
Up to 28,000 MAC addresses in the switch address
forwarding table — allows the switch to store forwarding
information for hosts in very large networks.
Segmented address tables qualified by address and VLAN
membership — allows the same host to appear on different
VLANs on different ports.
Optional per-VLAN Spanning Tree Protocol — isolates loop
control to smaller domains, so spanning trees converge faster
after a topology change.
