Static Fdb Mac Entry; Terminal Mode Permanent Setting; Vlan Scaling; Voice Vlan Integration - Avaya 4550T-PWR+ Fundamentals

Static FDB MAC Entry

You can use Static FDB MAC Entry to configure a static MAC address entry in the Layer 2
Forwarding Database (FDB). A static address does not age out and is saved in the
configuration file. You use Static FDB MAC Entry in conjunction with Disable MAC Learning.

Terminal Mode Permanent Setting

When you use Terminal Mode Permanent Setting, the system saves terminal settings across
login sessions. Retaining the terminal settings makes it easier to use scripts to configure or
poll the switch.

VLAN Scaling

The switch supports up to 1,024 concurrent VLANs with VIDs in a range from 1 to 4094. VLAN
scaling is an enhancement that enables actions on multiple VLANs simultaneously for faster
configuration of a high number of VLANs. If you add multiple VLANs to a single port you must
set VLAN configuration control to flexible.

Voice VLAN Integration

Voice VLAN is enhanced to provide centralized creation and management of Voice VLAN using
VLAN-specific commands. The enhancement also includes the option to configure a statically
allocated port that you can permanently assign to the Voice VLAN, where that port will still
persist after a system boot. Another advantage of a statically allocated port is that it does not
have to participate in the ADAC or 802.1AB discovery processes, when this behavior is desired.
With Voice VLAN Integration, the switch creates static Voice VLANs and Layer 3 configurations
can be applied as per standard operational procedures. Voice VLAN integration is specifically
useful when Layer 3 configurations are needed for ADAC Voice VLAN.
