1000000 10 20 1

Alcatel Mapping Adjacency Protocol (AMAP)

The AMAP protocol enables a switch to discover the topology of other AMAP-aware
devices in the network. The protocol allows each switch to determine if other
AMAP-aware switches are adjacent to it. Note that two switches are adjacent if and
only if the following two requirements are satisfied:
• There exists a Spanning Tree path between them.
• There exists no other AMAP-aware device between the two switches on that
Spanning Tree path.

Configuring AMAP

The AMAP protocol discovers adjacent switches by sending and receiving AMAP
Hello packets on active Spanning Tree ports. Each port can be defined as being in
one of three logical states of processing the AMAP Hello Packets: discovery,
common, or passive.
Note:
AMAP packets are registered only on a default VLAN.
Use the AMAP Settings Page to enable/disable AMAP and configure timeout
parameters.
