Page 27: Chapter 1 - Introduction
The Avaya P580 and P882 Multiservice switches are high performance Gigabit Ethernet switches for LAN backbone applications. These switches are the centerpiece for Avaya data, voice, and multimedia LANs. The P580 switching capacity ranges from 46Gbps in Fabric mode 1 to 55Gbps in Fabric mode 2.
Page 28: Hardware Components
Fabric mode 1 has a switching fabric performance of 1.76 Gigabits per second per fabric port. Fabric mode 1 modules operate at 55MHz only. In Fabric mode 1 the P580 chassis will have a 13x13 crossbar switching fabric, while the P882 chassis will have a 16x16 cross bar switching fabric.
Page 29: Avaya P580 Multiservice Switch Chassis
A 13x13 crossbar switch fabric Slots There are seven slots in the P580 chassis. Slot 1 is dedicated for a supervisor module and the remaining six are payload slots. If a redundant supervisor is used in the chassis, it must be inserted in slot 2.
Page 30 Chapter 1 Switch Fabric In Fabric mode 1, the switching fabric provides 45.76 Gbps aggregate bandwidth. In Fabric mode 2 (P580 only), the switching fabric provides 54.91 Gbps aggregate bandwidth. The crossbar switch matrix provides low latency, high throughput packet...
Page 31: Avaya P882 Multiservice Switch Chassis
Introduction Avaya P882 Multiservice Switch Chassis The Avaya P882 Multiservice Switch Chassis consists of: Seventeen slots (1 slot for the supervisor module and sixteen payload slots for media modules) Fan Tray Up to three power supplies A 33x33 crossbar switch fabric Slots The P882 chassis provides seventeen slots.
Page 32: The Power System
The Power System Overview Two power supplies are required to operate a fully-loaded P580 or P882 chassis. You can install a third power supply for backup if one of the other two fails. Features of the power system include: Load sharing by the installed power supplies.
Page 33 Introduction Static Power The switch uses static power allocation at startup when the switch has Allocation insufficient power to turn on all modules in the chassis. When using static power allocation, the switch turns on the module in slot 2 (slot 3 if slot 2 contains a redundant supervisor) and then turns on each consecutive module for which sufficient power is available.

Page 126: Radius Client Support
RADIUS Client Support Overview Purpose of In a network with many Avaya switches, tracking all of the user accounts on RADIUS each of the switches can be difficult. You can centralize the user accounts by using a Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) server.

Service-Types): Administrative or Read-Only. This happens when a Group name is not specified and no additional parameters are configured on the RADIUS server for the user account. In the case of the Avaya switch, this implies that a user is given Administrative or Read-Only access. The Avaya switch includes a third type of access, Read-Write, which cannot create other user accounts but can configure the switch.
Page 128 In order to provide user accounts with the same granularity of privileges as on the Avaya switch, Vendor Specific Attributes (VSA) must be configured on the RADIUS server and a Group name must be set on the Avaya switch. When set, the Group name is sent along with the Access Request message to the RADIUS server.

RADIUS server. Login Order of Operations When a user attempts to log into the Avaya switch, the switch will first check the local user accounts for the entered user name and password. If found, the user is logged in using the local settings for that account.

Configuring SNMP Authentication and Encryption Localized Keys To perform authentication and encryption, the switch and NMS (network management system) share localized keys.

When the switch receives the PDU, it compares the localized key in the PDU to the localized key stored in the switch memory.

VLAN is used in the network. If you are using 802.1 D Spanning Tree in the network and have multiple VLANs, you should set the P580 or P882 switches to run Dual-Layer Spanning Tree.
Page 193 This method can easily interoperate with legacy IEEE802.1D devices. The legacy devices become part of the VLAN associated with the VLAN port binding with which they are attached. In other words, if three P580 switches are in a network running VLANA and VLANB, and three legacy devices connect up through a port configured in VLAN A, the legacy devices will become part of the VLAN A Spanning Tree.
Page 194 3 and legacy domains cannot form. For example; if there are three P580 switches in a network running VLAN A and VLAN B, and three legacy devices connect up through a port configured in VLAN A, the legacy devices remain in their own legacy Spanning Tree and do NOT join the Multilayer Spanning Tree.

Configuring Ports Switch Port Features The Avaya P580 and P882 Multiservice switches support up to 1000 VLANs and also support multiple forwarding databases. This means that each VLAN is associated with its own Address Forwarding Table (AFT). Therefore, identical MAC addresses can simultaneously exist on multiple VLANs.

Page 222: Assigning Vlans To A Port And Associated Issues
3 of 3 Assigning VLANs to a Port and Associated Issues There are two ways to assign VLANs to ports on the Avaya Multiservice Switch. You configure the Port(s) to the VLAN desired for the individual port(s), or entire module. Assigning the VLAN this way enables the port(s) to receive information for the assigned VLAN and causes all untagged frames arriving on this port to be assigned to the specified VLAN.

It is not advised to allow the total hash table memory usage to exceed 20K. More than 20K will limit the potential for growth (i.e., address learning). If your Avaya Multiservice switch is approaching this threshold, adjust the Initial Hash Table Size accordingly.

Managing the Address Forwarding Table Resizing results in the switch utilizing AFT memory more efficiently. When the switch resizes the Hash Table, all entries are flushed and must be relearned. It is highly recommended the default of 40% not be changed. The affects of varying the Threshold (Util%) are as follows: Increasing Threshold: Gives better memory utilization at the expense of more frequent flushing, flooding, and relearning.

Configuring Redundancy Options has earlier or later software.) To synchronize the two supervisor modules, the active supervisor performs TFTP uploads to the standby supervisor. This process takes place over an internal subnet and VLAN. Once the software images and boot code on the standby and active supervisors are synchronized, the active supervisor then performs a TFTP upload of the startup.txt and the.int files.

Page 697: Management Traffic
15,000. Management Traffic The P580 and P882 use queue 7 to forward protocol packets (ARP, VRRP, OSPF, and so on) from the supervisor module. If you enable queue servicing on this queue, be sure to allocate the queue enough bandwidth for management packets.
