The MAC address-based security feature is based on Nortel Networks BaySecure LAN Access for Ethernet, a real-time security system that safeguards Ethernet networks from unauthorized surveillance and intrusion.
Page 41: Flash Memory Storage
Flash memory storage Switch software image storage The BayStack 380 Switch uses flash memory to store the switch software image. The flash memory allows you to update the software image with a newer version without changing the switch hardware (see page 164).
Page 42: Port Mirroring (Conversation Steering)
You can specify port-based monitoring for ingress and egress at a specific port. You can also attach a probe device (such as a Nortel Networks StackProbe, or equivalent) to the designated monitor port.
Page 43: Rfcs
The BayStack 380 Switch features auto-polarity. With autonegotiation enabled, auto-polarity automatically reverses the polarity of a pair of pins from positive to negative or negative to positive. This corrects the polarity of the received data if the port detects that the polarity of the data has been reversed due to a wiring error.
Page 44: Snmp Mib Support
SNMP MIB support The BayStack 380 Switch supports an SNMP agent with industry standard MIBs, as well as private MIB extensions, which ensures compatibility with existing network management tools. The switch supports the MIB-II (RFC 1213), Bridge MIB (RFC 1493), and the RMON MIB (RFC 1757), which provide access to detailed management statistics.
Page 45: Snmp Trap Support
BootP automatic IP configuration/MAC address The BayStack 380 Switch has a unique 48-bit hardware address, or MAC address, that is printed on a label on the back panel. You use this MAC address when you configure the network BootP server to recognize the BayStack 380 Switch BootP requests.

Page 55: Ieee 802.1Q Vlan Workgroups
VLAN, it is added to a group of ports (workgroup) that belong to one broadcast domain. The BayStack 380 Switch allows you to assign ports to VLANs using the console, Telnet, Web-based management, or an appropriate SNMP-based application. You can assign different ports (and therefore the devices attached to these ports) to different broadcast domains.
Page 56: Ieee 802.1Q Tagging
IEEE 802.1Q tagging BayStack 380 switches operate in accordance with the IEEE 802.1Q tagging rules. Important terms used with the 802.1Q tagging feature are: • VLAN identifier (VID)—the 12-bit portion of the VLAN tag in the frame header that identifies an explicit VLAN. When other types of VLANs are enabled, this default value can be overridden by the values enabled in the Web-based management interface.
Page 57: Figure 11 Default Vlan Settings
Unregistered packet—a tagged frame that contains a VID where the receiving port is not a member of that VLAN. The default configuration settings for BayStack 380 switches have all ports set as untagged members of VLAN 1 with all ports configured as PVID = 1. Every VLAN is assigned a unique VLAN identifier (VID) that distinguishes it from all other VLANs.
Page 58: Figure 12 Port-Based Vlan Assignment
Before As shown in switch through port 5, which is configured as a tagged member of VLAN 2. The untagged packet remains unchanged as it leaves the switch through port 7, which is configured as an untagged member of VLAN 2.
Page 59: Figure 14 802.1Q Tag Assignment
Before As shown in switch through port 5, which is configured as a tagged member of VLAN 2. However, the tagged packet is stripped (untagged) as it leaves the switch through port 7, which is configured as an untagged member of VLAN 2.
Page 60: Vlans Spanning Multiple Switches
VLANs spanning multiple 802.1Q tagged switches Figure 16 shows VLANs spanning two BayStack 380 switches. The 802.1Q tagging is enabled on S1, port 2 and on S2, port 1 for VLAN 1 and VLAN 2. Both ports are tagged members of VLAN 1 and VLAN 2.
Page 61: Vlans Spanning Multiple Untagged Switches
Figure 17 shows VLANs spanning multiple untagged switches. In this configuration, Switch S2 does not support 802.1Q tagging and you must use a single switch port on each switch for each VLAN. For this configuration to work properly, you must set spanning tree participation to Disabled (the STP is not supported across multiple LANs).
Page 62: Figure 18 Possible Problems With Vlans And Spanning Tree Protocol
Because the other link connecting VLAN 2 is in Blocking mode, stations on VLAN 2 in Switch S1 cannot communicate with stations in VLAN 2 on Switch S2. With multiple links only one link will be forwarding.
Page 63: Shared Servers
Shared servers BayStack 380 switches allow ports to exist in multiple VLANs for shared resources, such as servers, printers, and switch-to-switch connections. It is also possible to have resources exist in multiple VLANs on one switch as shown in Figure In this example, clients on different broadcast domains share resources.
Page 64: Figure 20 Vlan Broadcast Domains Within The Switch
In the above configuration, all of the switch ports are set to participate as VLAN port members. This arrangement allows the switch to establish the appropriate broadcast domains within the switch Figure 20 VLAN broadcast domains within the switch Port 2...

Page 70: Vlan Configuration Rules
VLAN configuration rules VLANs operate according to specific configuration rules. When creating VLANs, consider the following rules that determine how the configured VLAN reacts in any network topology: • All ports that are involved in port mirroring must have memberships in the same VLANs.
Page 71: Ieee 802.1P Prioritizing
(by default, all switch ports are set to Low priority). When the switch receives untagged packets on that port, the untagged packets are tagged according to the priority level that you assign to the port.
Page 72: Figure 27 Port Transmit Queue
The newly tagged frame is read within the switch and sent to the port’s high or low transmit queue for disposition. The port transmit queue example shown in Figure 27 applies to all ports in the BayStack 380 switch. Figure 27 Port Transmit Queue...
Page 73: Figure 28 Default Traffic Class Configuration Screen Example
Determine the priority level you want to assign to the switch port. User priority levels are assigned default settings in all BayStack 380 switches. The range is from 0 to 7. The traffic class table can be modified. You can view the settings shown in the Traffic Class configuration screen, and then set the port priority in the VLAN Port Configuration screen.
Page 74: Multilink Trunks
Figure 29 Traffic Class Priority Configuration screen example MultiLink Trunks MultiLink Trunks allow you to group from two to four switch ports together to form a link to another switch or server, thus increasing aggregate throughput of the interconnection between the devices (up to 8 Gb/s in full-duplex mode). You can configure up to six MultiLink Trunks.
Page 75: Figure 30 Switch-To-Switch Trunk Configuration Example
Figure 30 shows two trunks (T1 and T2) connecting Switch S1 to switches S2 and S3. Figure 30 Switch-to-switch trunk configuration example BayStack 380 You can configure each of the trunks shown in ports to provide up to 8 Gb/s aggregate bandwidth through each trunk, in full-duplex mode.
Page 76: Client/Server Configuration Using Multilink Trunks
Clients accessing data from the servers (FS1 and FS2) are provided with maximized bandwidth through trunks T1, T2, T3, T4, and T5. Trunk members (the ports making up each trunk) do not have to be consecutive switch ports; you can select ports randomly, as shown by T5.

Category 5 cables for MDI to MDI-X connections. Auto-polarity The BayStack 380 Switch features auto-polarity. With autonegotiation enabled, auto-polarity automatically reverses the polarity of a pair of pins from positive to negative or negative to positive. This corrects the polarity of the received data if the port detects that the polarity of the data has been reversed due to a wiring error.
