156 Configuration — Link Aggregation, MLT, and SMLT
A link-state routing protocol used as an Interior Gateway Protocol
(IGP).
Adds a Rendezvous Point router to avoid multicast-data flooding. Use
PIM-SM when receivers for multicast data are sparsely distributed
throughout the network.
Reduces the recovery time after a network breakdown. RSTP enhances
switch-generated Topology Change Notification (TCN) packets to reduce
network flooding.
Simple Hello Protocol that prevents loops in a Layer 2 network (VLAN).
A simple, fully-connected active topology formed from the arbitrary
physical topology of connected bridged Local Area Network components
by relaying frames through selected bridge ports. The protocol
parameters and states that are used and exchanged to facilitate the
calculation of the active topology and to control the bridge relay
function.
An Avaya extension to IEEE 802.1AX (link aggregation), provides nodal
and link failure protection and flexible bandwidth scaling to improve on
the level of Layer 2 resiliency.
A Layer 2 handshaking protocol that can detect end-to-end failure
between two physical Ethernet interfaces.
An abstract object managed by the Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol
(VRRP) that acts as a default router for hosts on a shared LAN.
A protocol used in static routing configurations, typically at the edge of
the network. This protocol operates on multiple routers on an IP subnet
and elects a primary gateway router. When the primary router fails, a
backup router is quickly available to take its place.
