For example, Layer 2 Supervisor Module, indicates a supervisor module that enables switching. The term, Layer 3 refers to the combined ability to switch and route. For example, the name, Layer 3 supervisor module, indicates a supervisor module that provides switching and routing capabilities.
These switches are the centerpiece for Avaya data, voice and multimedia LANs. The P550R switching capacity ranges from 46Gbps in 50-series mode to 55Gbps in 80-series mode. The P880/ P882 switching capacity ranges from 56Gbps, in 50-series mode, to 139Gbps, in 80-series mode.
50-series mode 80-series mode 50-Series Mode The 50-series platform offers a switching fabric performance if 1.76 gigabit per second per fabric port. 50-series modules operate at 55MHz only. The presence of any 50-series modules within the chassis will cause the chassis to operate in 50-series mode.
A 13x13 crossbar switch fabric Slots The P550R chassis consists of seven slots. Slot 1 is dedicated for a supervisor module and the remaining six of which are payload slots. If a redundant supervisor is used in the chassis, it must be inserted into slot 2 of the chassis.
Fan Tray There are two fan assemblies in the chassis. One fan assembly is located on the left side of the chassis to provide air flow to the media modules installed. This fan assembly is hot-swappable. The other fan assembly is located in the rear of the chassis to provide air flow to the switch fabric.
By comparison, shared memory switches have an inherent maximum upper boundary in throughput that makes high-density, single-backplane gigabit switches impractical. This means that as you increase the number of gigabit ports in your network, the architecture can scale to meet your needs. The crossbar supports: 13 fabric ports (two per I/O module slot, one for the supervisor module).
In 50-series mode, the P880/P882 Chassis can only support up to 15 payload slots. Slot seventeen is unsupported in 50-series mode. In 80-series mode, all sixteen payload slots are usable.
Fan Tray There are two fan assemblies in the chassis. One fan assembly is located on the left side of the chassis to provide air flow to the media modules installed. The other fan assembly is located in the rear of the chassis to provide air flow to the switch fabric.
* Note: All layer 3 modules interoperate with the layer 2 modules and require the layer 3 supervisor module. The layer 2 and layer 3 supervisor modules are both responsible for learning addresses, and managing the address cache and the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP).
Page 47
Layer 3 The layer 3 Supervisor module requires a faster CPU and more Supervisor memory. Also, unlike the layer 2 supervisor, the layer 3 supervisor is part of the path that some packets take through the system. To Module accomplish this, the layer 3 supervisor requires faster data transfer to and from the switching fabric.

Once the redundant supervisor is installed, loaded with the same software version as the active supervisor, and synchronized, it is ready to act as a backup to the active supervisor. If the active supervisor does fail, the redundant module quickly assumes control with the least possible affect on network operation.

500m. 8-port, GBIC based module — This module can be configured with up to 4 GBIC optical modules. It also has two switch ports to the backplane that provide more than two Gb per second bidirectional data traffic to the switch. There are four GBICs per port each capable of one Gb per second.
Explicitly tagged VLAN packets — these are forwarded based on the information in the packet. Up to 1,000 VLANs — VLANs define a set of ports in a flooding domain. Packets that need to be flooded are sent only to ports participating in that VLAN (Figure 1-3).
Hunt Groups Hunt groups allow you to aggregate bandwidth from multiple ports so they act as one high-bandwidth switch port. Hunt groups create multi-gigabit pipes to transport traffic through the highest traffic areas of your network. You can create hunt groups that interoperate with other vendor’s equipment (for example, Cisco’s Etherchannel...
All three switches map domain names to IP addresses through DNS clients. DNS must be enabled on the switch and at least one name server IP address must be specified. The following DNS Client features are supported:...

20 possible paths back to the root bridge (50 VLANS X 20 LINKS X 0.5 BPDU/sec. = 500), or if you have 100 VLANs you cannot have more that 10 possible paths back to the root bridge.
Page 61
Dual-Layer spanning tree mode is a variation of per-VLAN spanning tree mode with many of the same features. However, instead of using normal BPDUs, which are clear (free of VLAN tags) on clear links and tagged on tagged links, as is the case with Per-VLAN Spanning Tree mode, dual-layer uses a proprietary BPDU.
The port is disabled at Layer 2. You can also set the port to Spanning Tree disable on a port if you do not want that port to “Participate”. The port is then put directly into...
Adding gigabit speeds to existing networks means that there can be a huge disparity between link speeds. For example, anything more than a 1-percent load on a gigabit link could easily overwhelm a 10 Mb/s Ethernet link. Each switch employs the following buffer and queue management...
Configurable service ratio tunes queue priority. Routing Overview All three switches can be configured as an IP, IPX ,and AppleTalk router with virtual interfaces. Virtual interfaces are mapped to physical ports or VLANs. Layer 3 IP traffic is routed between the virtual interfaces.
Introduction to the Cajun P550R/P880/P882 Switch Routing with Layer 2 and Layer 3 Modules When a switch is configured with a mix of layer 2 and layer 3 modules, IP and IPX routing is performed by the layer 3 media modules or the layer 3 supervisor module using special ASICs present on those modules.

The spanning tree algorithm creates a single path through the network by ensuring that if more than one path exists between two parts of a network, only one of these paths is used, while the others are blocked. * Note: You should have a good understanding of the spanning tree protocol (STP) before attempting to configure these parameters.
IEEE 802.1D Entire switch is a single IEEE 802.1D-compliant bridge. Note: When the spanning tree mode is set to IEEE 802.D, BPDUs are sent out ports in Clear (non-trunked) format even if the port has a trunking format (3Com, 802.1Q or Dual layer) defined.

Hunt group will be used for unicast packets from A to E and from B to E. Users C and D are associated with PLE#6 and therefore the second link in the Hunt Group will be used for unicast packets from C to E and D to E.
Non-member PLE’s do not service traffic sourced from a particular hunt group and therefore are free to select any port for hunt-group destined traffic. The hunt group port that is selected is based on the source PLE and the destination MAC address. Before this enhancement, all non-member PLEs chose the same port for a given destination address.
There are six Non-Member PLEs (the 12 port is associated with a single fabric port but has two PLEs – one in the routing path and one before the routing path, and the 4 port has a PLE per port). Load sharing is now accomplished by Destination MAC Address and Source PLE.
The switches do not yet have a link discovery protocol. If one end of a connection is in a hunt group, the other end of the connection should also be in a hunt group. If you don’t do this, the forwarding behavior of the hunt group will be unpredictable.

16-bit data packet, called a link code word (LCW), within a burst of 17 to 33 link pulses, called a fast link pulse (FLP) burst. FLP bursts have an approximate duration of 2 µs and are transmitted in 16.8 µs intervals (the same interval as for the normal link pulses used by 10Base-T and 10Base-FL).
Configuring Port Parameters Auto-negotiation attempts to find the greatest common denominator for the two devices on the link in the following order of preference: 1. 100Base-TX full-duplex 2. 100Base-T4 3. 100Base-TX 4. 10Base-T full-duplex 5. 10Base-T half-duplex Once the greatest common denominator of settings is determined, each device equipped with auto-negotiation will configure itself automatically.
Assigning VLANs to a Port and Associated Issues Creating Virtual LANs (VLANs) A VLAN is a logical network that consists of one or more ports from one or more switches that are logically grouped together. The advantage of using VLANs is threefold:...
ID are derived from the received tagged frame. The VLAN name will be created as “*autoVlan [VLAN ID]”. The VLAN ID will be identical to the VLAN ID of the received tagged frame. As with all VLANs, the VLAN name may be modified to something more descriptive.
When a VLAN is created automatically the software assigns the VLAN to the port it is received on if that port is set to 'Bind-to- All' and 'Bind-to-Received". Additionally, software will assign the VLAN to all other ports whose 'Trunk Mode' is set to 'Bind- to-All'.
Rules members of the VLAN can be reached. This is called binding a port to a VLAN. A port may be bound to a VLAN using the following four methods: Setting the Port VLAN attribute in the Switch Port Configuration web page.
Configuring Port Parameters Relationship Between Different Switch Port Parameters Refer to Table 5-3 the relationship between Port VLAN / Trunk Mode / VLAN Binding parameters can be summarized in the following table using the VLAN Operational Rules.
