Connect your station to the network. Verify that you can communicate with the Avaya P330 using Ping to the IP of the Avaya P330. If there is no response using Ping, check the IP address and default gateway of both the Avaya P330 and the station.
Supervisor Level. At the prompt, type: set interface ppp <ip_addr><net-mask> with an IP address and netmask to be used by the Avaya P330 to connect via its PPP interface. Note: The PPP interface configured with the set interface ppp command must be on a different subnet from the stack inband interface.
User Authentication Introduction A secure system provides safeguards to insure that only authorized personnel can perform configuration procedures. In Avaya P330, these safeguards form part of the CLI architecture and conventions. Security Levels There are four security access levels – User, Privileged, Configure and Supervisor.

Introduction to RADIUS User accounts are typically maintained locally on the switch. Therefore, if a site contains multiple Avaya Switches, it is necessary to configure each switch with its own user accounts. Additionally, if for example a 'read-write' user has to be changed into a 'read-only' user, you must change all the 'read-write' passwords configured locally in every switch, in order to prevent him from accessing this level.

Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features This section describes the Avaya P330 Layer 2 features. It provides the basic procedures for configuring the P330 for Layer 2 operation. Overview The P330 family supports a range of Layer 2 features. Each feature has CLI commands associated with it.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Fast Ethernet Fast Ethernet is a newer version of Ethernet, supporting data transfer rates of 100 Mbps. Fast Ethernet is sufficiently similar to Ethernet to support the use of most existing Ethernet applications and network management tools. Fast Ethernet is also known as 100BASE-T (over copper) or 100BASE-FX (over fiber).
Priority determines in which order packets are sent on the network and is a key part of QoS (Quality of Service). The IEEE standard for priority on Ethernet networks is 802.1p. Avaya P330 switches supports two internal priority queues – the High Priority queue and the Normal Priority queue. •...

Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features VLAN Configuration VLAN Overview A VLAN is made up of a group of devices on one or more LANs that are configured so that they operate as if they form an independent LAN, when in fact they may be located on a number of different LAN segments.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Marketing (Mktg). Each VLAN has several physical ports assigned to it with PC’s connected to those ports. When traffic flows from a PC on the Sales VLAN for example, that traffic is only forwarded out the other ports assigned to that VLAN.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features three available Port Multi-VLAN binding modes are: • Bind to All - the port is programmed to support the entire 3K VLANs range. Traffic from any VLAN is forwarded through a port defined as “Bind to All”.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features VLAN CLI Commands The following table contains a list of the CLI commands for the VLAN feature. The rules of syntax and output examples are all set out in detail in the Reference Guide.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features VLAN Implementation in the Avaya P333T This section describes the implementation of the VLAN feature in the Avaya P333T: • No. of VLANs — 1024 tagged VLANs ranging from 1 to 3071 Avaya P333T User’s Guide...
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Port Based Network Access Control (PBNAC) Port Based Network Access Control (IEEE 802.1X) is a method for performing authentication to obtain access to IEEE 802 LANs. The protocol defines an interaction between 3 entitites: •...
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Note: If either PBNAC or STP/RSTP are in a blocking state, the final state of the port will be blocked. • When PBNAC is activated, the application immediately places all ports in a blocking state unless they were declared "Force Authenticate".

Spanning Tree Protocol Overview Avaya P330 devices support both common Spanning Tree protocol (802.1d) and the enhanced Rapid Spanning Tree protocol (802.1w). The 802.1w is a faster and more sophisticated version of the 802.1d (STP) standard. Spanning Tree makes it possible to recover connectivity after an outage within a minute or so.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) About the 802.1w Standard The enhanced feature set of the 802.1w standard includes: • Bridge Protocol Data Unit (BPDU) type 2 • New port roles: Alternate port, Backup port •...
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Note: You must manually configure uplink and backbone ports (including LAG logical ports) to be "non-edge" ports, using the CLI command set port edge admin state. • Point-to-point Link ports — This port type applies only to ports interconnecting RSTP compliant switches and is used to define whether the devices are interconnected using shared Ethernet segment or pont-to-point Ethernet link.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features • The 802.1w standard defines differently the default path cost for a port compared to STP (802.1d). In order to avoid network topology change when migrating to RSTP, the STP path cost is preserved when changing the spanning tree version to RSTP.

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.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features LAG Implementation in the Avaya P330 Family of Products This section describes the implementation of the LAG feature in the P330 Family of products. The P333T supports up to 5 LAGs: • Up to three LAGs from three groups of 8 10/100 Mbps ports: —...
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Port Redundancy Port redundancy involves the duplication of devices, services, or connections, so that, in the event of a failure, the redundant device, service, or connection can take over for the one that failed.
Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features — “switchback-interval” — the minimum time (in seconds) that the primary port link has to be up (following failure) before the system switches back to the primary port. The “none” parameter, if configured, prevents switching back to the primary.

This is typically based on IGMP snooping. The Avaya P330 supports multicast filtering. The P330 learns which switch ports need to receive which multicast packets and configures the necessary information into the switch's hardware tables.

Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Stack Health The P330 software provides a Stack Helath feature for verifying the integrity of the P330 stack cascading module and cables. Overview The Stack Health feature will identify defective modules and cables that may be installed in the P330 stack.
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.
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.
Software Redundancy - Setting software redundancy for ports in an Avaya P330 Switch. • Port Mirroring - Setting up port mirroring for ports in an Avaya P330 Switch. • Trap Managers Configuration - Viewing and modifying the Trap Managers Table.
