The following software features were implemented in v5.2.10:
Non-Broadcast Multi-Access (NBMA) IP Interfaces
This feature makes it possible for the switch to exchange
routing information over nonbridged connections (routed
virtual switch ports). NBMA functionality has been added to
the RIP and OSPF routing protocols in the switch software
and has been tested with Cisco and Marconi routers.
NBMA functionality is being developed in the Avaya
Multiservice switch software for the ATM uplink module.
This feature makes it possible to set up an IP interface as
NBMA. Marconi and Cisco routers use NBMA IP interfaces
and neighbor lists to exchange OSPF route updates. For
information on how to set up NBMA IP addresses, see
"NBMA IP Interfaces"
Network Error Detection and Recovery (NEDR)
This feature monitors Ethernet CRC errors on Ethernet data
ports and compares the rate of errors to the threshold setting.
If you enable this feature, you can log errors in the Event log
and shutdown the port that is receiving the CRC error
packets. You can enable this feature only by using the CLI
and only for ports on 50-series and 80-series gigabit ethernet
modules. For more information about this feature, see
"Network Error Detection and Recovery"
CLI command to view information about all hardware in the
chassis.
For more information about this feature, see "show module-
inventory," in the Command Reference Guide for the Avaya
P550R, P580, P880, and P882 Multiservice Switches, Version 5.3.1.
