SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK AND FIRE
1. All servicing should be undertaken ONLY by qualified personnel. The parts inside the unit
CANNOT be serviced or repaired by the end user. Please call your service representative
for assistance.
2. Do NOT plug in, turn on or attempt to operate a damaged unit.
3. Ensure that the chassis ventilation slots in the unit are NOT BLOCKED.
4. Replace a “blown” fuse only with the same type and rating as is marked on the safety label
adjacent to the power inlet housing the fuse.
5. DO NOT operate the unit in a location where the maximum ambient temperature exceeds
50ºC.
6. Be sure to unplug the power supply cord from the wall socket BEFORE attempting to
remove and/or check the main power fuse.
PRECAUTIONS DE SECURITÉ
AVERTISSEMENT – POUR RÉDUIRE LE RISQUE DE CHOC ÉLECTRIQUE ET D’INCENDIE
1. Tout entretien doit être fait UNIQUEMENT par un personnel de service qualifié. Aucun
élément ne peut être réparé par un particulier.
2. NE PAS brancher, allumer ou essayer de faire fonctionner une unité sur laquelle un doute
existe quant à son bon fonctionnement.
3. S’assurer que les ouvertures d’aération du châssis dans l’appareil NE SONT PAS
OBSTRUEES..
4. Remplacer un fusible défaillant UNIQUEMENT par un modèle du même type suivant les
recommandations indiquées sur l’étiquette de securité posée dans le logement du fusible.
5. NE PAS faire fonctionner l’appareil dans un endroit où la temperature dépasse les 50ºC.
6. S’assurer de débrancher l’alimentation électrique AVANT toute manipulation sur le fusible
principal.
SICHERHEITSVORKEHRUNG
ACHTUNG – ZUR VERHINDERUNG DES RISIKOS VON ELEKTRISCHEM SCHLAG UND FEUER
1. Die Geräte enthalten keine Bauteile, die außerhalb des Madge Servicezentrums gewartet
oder repariert werden können. Die Wartung darf NUR von qualifiziertem, technischem
Personal durchgeführt werden.
2. NIEMALS ein beschädigtes Gerät einschalten, oder versuchen es zu bedienen.
3. Vergewissern Sie sich, dass die Chassis Ventilationsöffnungen des Gerätes NICHT
BLOCKIERT sind.

4. Austauschen einer durchgebrannten Sicherung NUR mit der gleichen Sorte und
Belastbarkeit wie sie auf der Sicherheitsaufschrift markiert ist. Die Aufschrift befindet sich
neben der Stromzufuhr wo sich auch der Sicherungskasten befindet.
5. Bedienen Sie das Gerät NICHT an einer Stelle an der die Umgebungstemperatur 50ºC
übersteigt.
6. Ziehen Sie das Netzkabel raus, BEVOR Sie versuchen die Hauptsicherung zu kontrollieren
oder auszutauschen.

P118 Installation Guide iii

Chapter 1
Overview
This guide is divided into the following main sections:
• Overview: A general description of the features of the P118.
• Installation: Instructions for getting the P118 and P110 stack up and running.
P118 Installation Guide 1

Chapter 1 Overview
Description
The P118SX and P118LX are part of the P110 family of switches. The P110 family is
composed of high-performance stackable switches which may be used singly or
stacked in any combination.
The P118 has eight Ethernet/Fast Ethernet (10/100BASE-T) ports and two Gigabit
Ethernet (1000BASE-X) ports. The 10/100 Mbps ports are typically used for
workgroup connectivity, while the two 1000 Mbps ports can be used as full duplex
uplinks to an Avaya or any other Gigabit Ethernet switch.
The Giga Ethernet ports comply with the IEEE 802.3x Flow Control and IEEE
802.1Q for Tagging Mode standards. All 10/100 Mbps ports can run at full or half
duplex Ethernet. A redundant power supply may be used for enhanced fault
tolerance.
The P118 can operate standalone or as part of a stack. A stack can be made up of
any combination of two, three or four P110 switches, and up 32,000 MAC
addresses per stack are supported. A stack requires a P110 NMA to link the
switches. The units are physically linked using the Exoplane.
 You need to install a P110 NMA in the P118SX and P118LX switches in order
to operate them in stand-alone mode.
The P118 can use an advanced flow control mechanism to eliminate packet loss.
An automatic fairness mechanism ensures that all ports gain fair access to the
Exoplane even at very high network utilization. Congestion management works
both on full and half duplex ports, and ensures no packet loss should the buffers
become saturated during peak load conditions.
A redundant power supply (P110 BUPS) may be used for additional fault
tolerance.
The P118 switch is manageable under MSNM (or CajunView) Avaya’s family of
SNMP network management systems, or any other SNMP-based management
system, and may be monitored using Avaya’s SMON Manager Switch Monitoring
Application.
 The P118SX and P118LX switches are identical except that the P118LX module
has single-mode fiber ports. Therefore this Installation Guide will only refer to
the P118 unless there are differences in the operation of the switches.
