SECTION 1: OVERVIEW OF THE P330

Avaya P333T-PWR User’s Guide 1
Chapter 1
Avaya P333T-PWR Overview
Introduction
The Avaya P330 family of stackable Ethernet workgroup switches includes a range
of modules with 10/100/1000 Mbps ports, a Layer 3 capability, and ATM and
WAN expansion modules. The Avaya P333T-PWR switch has 24 Power over
Ethernet 10/100 Mbps ports and an Expansion Module slot. The optional
expansion modules provide additional Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and Gigabit
Ethernet connectivity.
An Avaya P330 stack can contain up to 10 switches and up to 3 backup power
supply units. The stacked switches are connected using the Avaya X330STK
stacking Modules which plug into a slot in the back of the Avaya P330. They are
connected using the X330SC or X330LC cable (if the stack is split between two
racks). The Avaya X330RC cable connects the top and bottom switches in the stack
and provides redundancy and hot-swappability in the same way that modules can
be swapped in a modular switching chassis.
The Avaya P330 is fully compliant with IEEE standards for VLAN Tagging, Gigabit
Ethernet, Spanning Tree and Flow Control. This full standards-compliance,
combined with auto-negotiation for 10/100/1000 Mbps and half/full duplex
facilitates the expansion of your network to match your company's growing needs.
Avaya P330 Family Features
• You can connect up to 10 Avaya P330 switches in a stack. Moreover, this stack
can be either in one rack or split over several racks using the X330LC Long
Cable, according to your requirements.
• Avaya X330STK - this stacking Module is used to connect Avaya P330 switches
in a stack, via the Octaplane.
• Avaya P330 BUPS - this back-up power supply module supports up to four
Avaya P330 switches.
• One RJ-45/RS232 front panel console connector for both terminal and modem
sessions.
• Two fan units in every switch, with operation sensors.
• One virtual IP address for managing the whole stack, the P330 stack is managed
as a single entity.
• Hot-swapping of one switch at a time - by activation of the redundant cable:
— Does not disrupt the operation of other Avaya P330 switches.
— Does not change stack configuration.
— Does not require network downtime.

Chapter 1 Avaya P333T-PWR Overview
2Avaya P333T-PWR User’s Guide
• Connection through Telnet from the front panel ports of any switch, with:
— multiple levels of password protection
— login and inactivity timeouts
Avaya P333T-PWR Power Over Ethernet Stackable Switch
The P333T-PWR switch provides IEEE 802.3af-compliant “Inline” DC power over
the signal pairs in addition to switched Ethernet on the existing LAN infrastructure
for devices such as IP telephones and Wireless LAN access points. This allows you
to deploy devices in the network that require power without installing standard
power cables in hard to access areas. The P333T-PWR is pre-configured to supply
power according to the automatic load detection process, so you can use it right out
of the box. The P333T-PWR provides power over standard Category 3 and Category
5 cables.
Note: The P333T-PWR does not supply power to ports on Expansion Modules.
The P333T-PWR also has all the features of the P330 stackable switching system.
Load Detection
The P333T-PWR periodically checks all ports, powered and non-powered to check
their status and the power status of connected devices. It will supply power to a
port only after it has detected that a valid PD (powered device) is connected to the
port.
Avaya P330 Network Management
Comprehensive network management is a key component of today’s networks.
Therefore we have provided multiple ways of managing the Avaya P330 to suit
your needs.
Avaya P330 Device Manager (Embedded Web)
The built-in Avaya P330 Device Manager (Embedded Web Manager) allows you to
manage an Avaya P330 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.
Avaya P330 Command Line Interface (CLI)
The Avaya P330 CLI provides a terminal type configuration tool for local or remote
configuration of Avaya P330 features and functions.

Chapter 1 Avaya P333T-PWR Overview
Avaya P333T-PWR User’s Guide 3
Avaya Multi-Service Network Manager™ (MSNM)
When you need extra control and monitoring or wish to manage other Avaya
network equipment, then the Avaya Multi-Service Network Manager network
management suite is the answer. This suite provides the ease-of-use and features
necessary for optimal network utilization.
Avaya Multi-Service Network Manager is available for Windows® NT®/2000 and
Solaris 8. It can also operate in Stand-Alone mode with Windows® NT®/2000.
Finally, Avaya Multi-Service Network Manager can operate under HP OpenView
for Windows® NT®/2000 and Solaris 8.
Port Mirroring
The P330 provides port mirroring for additional network monitoring functionality.
You can filter the traffic and mirror either incoming traffic to the source port or both
incoming and outgoing traffic. This allows you to monitor the network traffic you
need.
Ports which are members in a Link Aggregation Group (LAG) cannot also be used as
Port Mirroring Destination or Source ports.
SMON
The P330 supports Avaya’s ground-breaking SMON Switched Network
Monitoring, which the IETF has now adopted as a standard (RFC2613). SMON
provides unprecedented top-down monitoring of switched network traffic at the
following levels:
• Enterprise Monitoring
• Device Monitoring
• VLAN Monitoring
• Port-level Monitoring
This top-down approach gives you rapid troubleshooting and performance
trending to keep the network running optimally.
Note: MSNM Licence is required to run SMON monitoring.
Note: You need to purchase one SMON License per P330 Stack
Fans, Power Supply and BUPS Monitoring
The P330 module has integrated sensors which provide advance warnings of fan
failure, power supply failure or Backup Power Supply (BUPS) failure via
