  • Page 107: Lag

    A LAG uses multiple ports to create a high bandwidth connection with another device. For example: Assigning four 100BASE-T ports to a LAG on an Avaya P330 allows the switch to communicate at an effective rate of 400 Mbps with another switch.
  • Page 108: Lag Implementation In The Avaya P330 Family Of Products

    This section describes the implementation of the LAG feature in the P330 Family of products. With the P332G-ML you can aggregate the bandwidth of groups of up to four 1000Base-X ports in a LAG, or pairs of adjacent 1000Base-X ports within a group, for a maximum of 6 LAGs per switch.

  • Page 119: Port Classification

    Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Port Classification Overview With the P330, you can classify any port as regular or valuable. Setting a port to valuable means that, in case of Ethernet link failure of that port, a link fault trap can be sent even when the port is disabled and a fast aging operation on the CAM table will be performed.
  • Page 120: Stack Redundancy

    Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Stack Redundancy In the unlikely event that a P330 switch or Octaplane link should fail, stack integrity is maintained if the redundant cable is connected to the stack. The broken link is bypassed and data transmission continues uninterrupted. The single management IP address for the stack is also preserved for uninterrupted management and monitoring.

  • Page 141: Arp (Address Resolution Protocol) Table Configuration

    Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) Table Configuration ARP Overview IP logical network addresses are independent of physical addresses. Since the physical address must be used to convey data in the form of a frame from one device to another, a mechanism is required to acquire a destination device hardware address from its IP address.
  • Page 142: The Arp Table

    Chapter 12 Avaya P330 Layer 3 Features The ARP Table The ARP table is used to store recently used pairs of IP/MAC addresses. This saves time and communication costs, since the host looks in the ARP cache first when transmitting a packet. If the information is not there, then the host sends an ARP Request (see Figure 12.2).
