Management; Management Interface Options - Avaya C360 Installation And Configuration Manual

IP routing between VLANs (inter-VLAN routing) for full Layer 3 switching between two or
●
more VLANs, allowing each VLAN to maintain its own autonomous data-link domain
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) for identifying a switch through its IP address and its
●
corresponding Media Access Control (MAC) address. Refer to
Protocol) Table Configuration
NetBIOS Re-broadcast for applications such as WINS that use broadcast but may need to
●
communicate with stations on other subnets or VLANs. Refer to
Configuration
Static IP routing for manually building a routing table of network path information. Refer to
●
Static Routing Configuration
ECMP (equal-cost routing) provides load balancing and redundancy by splitting traffic
●
among several equivalent paths.
Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) and ICMP Router Discovery Protocol (IRDP)
●
are used by routers to notify the hosts on the data link that a better route is available for a
particular destination.
DHCP/ BootP relay for forwarding UDP broadcasts, including IP address requests, from
●
DHCP/BootP clients. Refer to
Relay Configuration

Management

The C360 switch is designed for plug-and-play operation: you need to configure only basic IP
information for the switch and connect it to the other devices in your network. If you have
specific network needs, you can configure and monitor the switch - individually or as part of a
stack - through its various management interfaces.

Management Interface Options

You can configure and monitor individual switches and the entire stack by using these
interfaces:
The built-in C360 Device Manager allows you to configure and manage a C360 stack
●
using a Web browser without purchasing additional software.
This application works with the Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator web
browsers and Sun Microsystems Java Plug-in.
CLI - You can configure and monitor the switch or the stack from the CLI. You can access
●
the CLI either by connecting your management station directly to the switch console port
or by using Telnet, PPP or SSH from a remote management station.
SNMP - provides a means to monitor and control the switch or the stack. You can manage
●
switch configuration settings, performance, security, and collect statistics by using SNMP
management applications such Avaya Integrated Management and HP OpenView.
