Chapter 3: System configuration fundamentals This chapter describes the system configuration fundamentals for the Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 4500 Series. Hardware features This section provides information about the hardware features of the Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 4500 Series switch platforms.
Page 16: Cooling Fans
Ethernet Routing Switch 4548GT-PWR, and Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 4550T-PWR, can use an optional 470-Watt (W) Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch RPS 15 redundant power supply. The RPS 15 power supply chassis is two units high and can accommodate up to three RPS modules, each supporting up to four devices, to provide redundant power and uninterrupted operation in power failure.

For further information about the DC-DC converter module, see DC-DC Converter Module for the BayStack 5000 Series Switch (215081-A). Stacking capabilities You can use the Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 4500 Series switches in either of the following configurations: • stand-alone •...
Page 18: Auto Unit Replacement
System configuration fundamentals Auto Unit Replacement You can use the Auto Unit Replacement (AUR) feature to replace a unit from a stack while retaining the configuration of the unit. This feature requires the stack power to be on during the unit replacement. The main feature of the AUR is the ability to retain the configuration (CFG) image of a unit in a stack during a unit replacement.
Page 19: Aur Function
Auto Unit Replacement Table 3: show stack auto-unit-replacement fields Field Definition Auto Unit Replacement Auto-Restore Enable: During a unit replacement, the configuration will be automatically restored to the new unit. Disable: During a unit replacement, the configuration will not be restored automatically.
Page 20 System configuration fundamentals the CFG image is called the Associated Unit (AU) of the CFG mirror image. The MAC Address of the AU is called the Associated MAC Address (AMA) of the CFG mirror image. An active CFG Mirror Image is a CFG mirror image that has its AU in the stack. An INACTIVE CFG Mirror Image is a CFG mirror image for which the associated AU is removed from the stack.
Page 21 Auto Unit Replacement Figure 1: CFG mirror process in stack Adding a unit In a stack that has no any INACTIVE CFG mirror images, a new unit causes the CFG image of the new unit to be mirrored in the stack. For example, in Figure 2: CFG mirror images in the stack after adding unit 4 on page 22, after you add unit 4 to the stack, the CFG 4 mirror image...
Page 22 System configuration fundamentals Figure 2: CFG mirror images in the stack after adding unit 4 Removing an NBU When you remove an NBU from a stack, the related CFG mirror image in the stack becomes INACTIVE. The AUR feature ensures that the stack always has two copies of an INACTIVE CFG mirror image.
Page 23 Auto Unit Replacement Figure 3: CFG mirror images after removing unit 4 Removing a BU When you remove a BU, the TEMP-BU assumes the role of the BU. Because all the CFG mirror images of the NBUs reside in the removed BU, the TEMP-BU mirrors all the CFG images of the NBUs in the stack.
Page 24 System configuration fundamentals Figure 4: CFG mirror images in the stack after removing the BU (unit 1) As shown in Figure 4: CFG mirror images in the stack after removing the BU (unit 1) on page 24 • Unit 2 becomes the TEMP-BU. •...
Page 25 Auto Unit Replacement Important: Restore a CFG image to a new unit happens only if you meet the following conditions. • The AUR feature is enabled. • At least one INACTIVE CFG mirror image exists in the stack. • The MAC Address of the new unit is different from all the AMA of the INACTIVE CFG mirror images in the stack.
Page 26: Agent Auto Unit Replacement
System configuration fundamentals Figure 5: CFG mirror images in the stack after adding unit 5 Synchronizing the CFG mirror images with CFG images A CFG mirror image is updated whenever a CFG flash drive synchronization occurs in the Agent Auto Unit Replacement Use the enhancement to the Auto Unit Replacement functionality, known as Agent Auto Unit Replacement (AAUR), to ensure that all units in a stack have the same software image by inspecting units joining a stack and downloading the stack software image to any unit that has...
Page 27: Diagnostics Aur (Daur)
Auto Unit Replacement 1. When a stand-alone switch joins an AAUR-enabled stack, the switch software image is inspected. 2. If the switch software image differs from the stack software image, the AAUR functionality downloads the stack software image to the joining unit. 3.
Page 28 System configuration fundamentals When the switch finishes the diagnostic image version update, the switch performs an AAUR check. If the new unit has the same agent image as the stack, the unit reboots. If the new unit has a different agent image, the switch performs an AAUR. Note: The new unit added on a stack must have an agent image with software release 5.1.0 or higher or AAUR and DAUR cannot upgrade the new unit.
Page 29: Stack Forced Mode
Stack Forced Mode Large image file If the agent image size exceeds 6 Mb, the switch cannot perform the DAUR. The switch sends an error message to the base unit. You must perform a manual image upgrade or downgrade in this situation for both the diagnostic and agent images. Stack Forced Mode Stack Forced Mode allows one or both units to become stand-alone switches if a stack of two units breaks.
Page 30: Ipv6 Management
IPv6 interface and then configure the switch IPv6 address. If you use Telnet, SSH or EDM to change the settings, the switch will lose IPv6 connectivity to the switch. Avaya recommends that you change the settings with the Console Interface to switch or use an IPv4 address for management.
Page 31: The Ipv6 Header
IPv6 management The IPv6 header The IPv6 header contains the following fields: • a 4-bit Internet Protocol version number, with a value of 6 • an 8-bit traffic class field, similar to Type of Service in IPv4 • a 20-bit flow label that identifies traffic flow for additional Quality of Service (QoS) •...
Page 32: Address Formats
System configuration fundamentals If you manually configure interface IDs or MAC addresses (or both), no relationship between the MAC address and the interface ID is necessary. A manually configured interface ID can be longer or shorter than 64 bits. Address formats The format for representing an IPv6 address is n:n:n:n:n:n:n:n n is the hexadecimal representation of 16 bits in the address.
Page 33: Comparison Of Ipv4 And Ipv6
IPv6 management extensions that contain options for destination processing. If the router is an intermediate node, IPv6 examines the header extensions that contain forwarding options. By examining only the extension headers that apply to the operations it performs, IPv6 reduces the amount of time and processing resources required to process a packet.

System configuration fundamentals Feature IPv4 IPv6 Multicast membership IGMP Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) Router discovery Optional Required Uses broadcasts Configuration Manual, DHCP Manual Ethernet Routing Switch 4500 Series does not support IPsec. Ethernet Routing Switch 4500 Series does not perform Router discovery or advertise as a router.
Page 35 IPv6 management • Parameter discovery: host and routers discover link parameters such as the link MTU or the hop limit value placed in outgoing packets. • Address autoconfiguration: nodes configure an address for an interface with address autoconfiguration. • Duplicate address detection: hosts and nodes determine if an address is assigned to another router or a host.

Page 40: Policy-Enabled Networking
System configuration fundamentals Policy-enabled networking With the policy-enabled networking, you can implement classes of services and assign priority levels to different types of traffic. You can also configure policies to monitor the characteristics of traffic. For example, in policy-enabled networking, you can determine the sources, destinations, and protocols used by the traffic.
Page 41: Port Mirroring
You can specify port-based mirroring for ingress and egress at a specific port, or address based mirroring, either source or destination. You also can attach a probe device, such as an Avaya StackProbe*, or equivalent, to the designated monitor port.
Page 42: Autosensing And Autonegotiation
Autosensing occurs when the attached device cannot autonegotiate or uses a form of autonegotiation that is not compatible with the IEEE 802.3z autonegotiation standard. If it is not possible to sense the duplex mode of the attached device, the Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 4500 Series reverts to half-duplex mode.
Page 43: Configuring Cana Using Acli
Custom Autonegotiation Advertisements You may not want a port to advertise all supported speed and duplex modes in the following situations: • If a network can support only a 10 Mb/s connection, you can configure a port to advertise only 10 Mb/s capabilities. Devices that uses autonegotiation to connect to this port connect at 10 Mb/s, even if both devices are capable of higher speeds.
Page 44: Viewing Hardware Capabilities
System configuration fundamentals Viewing hardware capabilities To view the operational capabilities of the device, enter the following command: show auto-negotiation-capabilities [port <portlist>] The following example displays sample output for the show auto-negotiation-capabilities command for port 5. show auto-negotiation-capabilities command sample output 4548GT-PWR#show auto-negotiation-capabilities port 1/5 Unit/Port Autonegotiation Capabilities --------- ----------------------------------------------...

Page 52: Displaying Unit Uptime
You can assign an IP address to each unit in a stack. Use ACLI to configure the IP addresses for each unit within a stack. BootP mode The Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 4500 Series supports the Bootstrap protocol (BootP). You can use BootP to retrieve an ASCII configuration file name and configuration server address.
Page 53: Dhcp Client
IP address of the default router (default gateway). The Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 4500 Series has a unique 48-bit hardware address, or MAC address, that is printed on a label on the back panel. Use this MAC address when you configure the network BootP server to recognize the Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 4500 Series BootP requests.
Page 54: Simple Network Time Protocol
System configuration fundamentals • SNMP Write community • Quick Start VLAN Simple Network Time Protocol The Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) is a subset of the Network Time Protocol. It provides a simple mechanism for time synchronization. Clocks use NTP to synchronize to a few milliseconds, depending on the clock source and local clock hardware.
Page 55: Ping Enhancement
• A Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server is on the network that is accessible by the switch and that has the desired software version loaded. • If you change the switch software on a an Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 4524GT-PWR or Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 4548GT-PWR using a USB Mass Storage Device, ensure that the Mass Storage Device has the desired software version and is inserted into the front panel USB port.
Page 56: Led Activity During Software Download
During the software download, the port LEDs light one after another in a chasing pattern, except for ports 35, 36, 47, and 48 on an Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 4548GT. This chasing pattern is initially fast as the software image is downloaded but gradually slows as the switch erases the flash memory.
Page 57 Avaya Energy Saver The power consumption savings of each switch is determined by the number of ports with AES enabled and by the power consumption of PoE ports that are powered off. If AES for a port is set to disabled, the port is not powered off, irrespective of the PoE configuration. AES turns off the power to a port only when PoE is enabled globally, the port AES is enabled, and the PoE priority for the port is configured to low.

IP device to discharge. If you attempt to connect earlier, the switch may not detect the IP device. The Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 4500 provides the capability to set a PoE power threshold, which lets you set a percentage of the total PoE power usage at which the switch sends a warning trap message.
Page 61: Viewing Poe Ports Using Edm
The devices connected to the ports consume the available Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 4500 Series 4550T-PWR,4548GT-PWR, 4526T-PWR and 4526GTX-PWR switch power. The device connected to port 41 requests power from the Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 4550T–PWR or the Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 4548GT–PWR. The switch provides the required power as port 41 is configured as high priority.

Page 63: Chapter 5: Link Layer Discovery Protocol (802.1Ab)
Chapter 5: Link Layer Discovery Protocol (802.1ab) This chapter describes the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) (IEEE 802.1ab) and contains the following topics: Link Layer Discovery Protocol (IEEE 802.1AB) Overview on page 63 See the following sections for the procedures to configure LLDP: •...
Page 64: Lldp Operational Modes
Link Layer Discovery Protocol (802.1ab) Figure 9: LLDP How it works 1. The Ethernet Routing Switch and LLDP-enabled router advertise chassis/port IDs and system descriptions to each other. 2. The devices store the information about each other in local MIB databases, accessible by using SNMP.
Page 65: Basic Management Tlv Set
Connectivity and management information Each LLDPDU includes the following four mandatory TLVs: • Chassis ID TLV • Port ID TLV • Time To Live TLV • End Of LLDPDU TLV The chassis ID and the port ID values are concatenated to form a logical MSAP identifier that the recipient uses to identify the sending LLDP agent and port.
Page 66: Ieee 802.1 Organizationally-Specific Tlvs
Link Layer Discovery Protocol (802.1ab) IEEE 802.1 organizationally-specific TLVs The optional IEEE 802.1 organizationally-specifc TLVs are: • Port VLAN ID TLV contains the local port PVID. • Port And Protocol VLAN ID TLV contains the VLAN IDs of the port and protocol VLANs that contain the local port.
Page 67: 802.1Ab Med Network Policies
Connectivity and management information addition, an LLDP-MED endpoint advertises this TLV for supported application types to enable the discovery of specific policy information and the diagnosis of network policy configuration mismatch issues. • Location Identification TLV allows network connectivity devices to advertise the appropriate location identifier information for an endpoint to use in the context of location- based applications.
Page 68: Transmitting Lldpdus
TLV transmit flags for the port. The TLV transmit flags and TLV configuration operate independently of each other. Therefore, you must enable the transmit flag on a switch port for a specific TLV, before the port can transmit that TLV to an Avaya IP phone.
Page 69 8 call servers to connected Avaya IP phones. Avaya IP phones use the IP address information to connect to a call server. Avaya IP phones use the call server TLV to report which call server it is connected to back to the switch.
Page 70 By default, the transmission of the 802.1Q Framing TLV is enabled for all ports. Phone IP TLV Avaya IP phones use the phone IP TLV to advertise IP phone IP address configuration information to the switch. The phone IP TLV supports IPv4 addresses only.
Page 71: Chapter 6: System Configuration Using Acli
Chapter 6: System configuration using ACLI The modules in this section provide procedures to configure the switch or stack with ACLI. Setting user access limitations using ACLI The administrator can use ACLI to limit user access by creating and maintaining passwords for Web, Telnet, and Console access.
Page 72: Enabling And Disabling Passwords
System configuration using ACLI Enabling and disabling passwords After you set the read-only and read-write passwords, you can individually enable or disable them for the various switch-access methods. To enable passwords, perform the following task. 1. Access ACLI through the Telnet protocol or a Console connection. 2.
Page 73 Setting user access limitations using ACLI If you select RADIUS Authentication when you set up passwords through ACLI, you must specify the RADIUS server settings to complete the process. Ensure that you enter Global Configuration mode in ACLI before you start this task. To enable RADIUS authentication through ACLI, follow these steps.
