Chapter 1
Avaya P330 Overview
The Avaya P330 family of stackable Ethernet workgroup switches includes a range
of modules with 10/100/1000 Mbps ports and a Layer 3 capability/ATM Expansion
Module. The Avaya P334T switch has 48x10/100 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.
• Connection through Telnet from the front panel ports of any switch, with:
— multiple levels of password protection
— login and inactivity timeouts

Chapter 1 Avaya P330 Overview

Avaya P330 Standards Supported
The Avaya P330 complies with the following standards.
IEEE • 802.3x Flow Control on all ports
• 802.1Q VLAN Tagging support on all ports and 802.1p compatible
• 802.1D Bridges and STA
• 803.2z Gigabit Ethernet ports
• 803.2u Ethernet/Fast Ethernet ports
IETF • MIB-II - RFC 1213
• Bridge MIB for Spanning Tree - RFC 1492
• RMON - RFC 1757
• SMON - RFC 2613
• Bridge MIB Groups - RFC 2674 dot1dbase and dot1dStp fully implemented.
Support for relevant MIB objects: dot1q (dot1qBase, dot1qVlanCurrent)
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 P330 Overview
Avaya P334T User’s Guide 3
Avaya Multi-Service Network Manager™
When you need extra control and monitoring or wish to manage other Cajun
Campus 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.
• Avaya Multi-Service Network Manager can operate in Stand-Alone mode with
Windows® NT®/2000.
• Avaya Multi-Service Network Manager operates under HP OpenView for
Windows® NT®/2000 and Solaris 8.
Avaya P330 Network Monitoring
RMON MIBs - RFC 1757
• RMON support for groups 1,2,3 and 9
— Statistics
—History
—Alarms
—Events
SMON MIBs - RFC 2613
• SMON support for groups
— Data Source Capabilities
—PortCopy
— VLAN and Priority Statistics
Bridge MIB Groups - RFC 2674
• dot1dbase and dot1dStp fully implemented.
• Support for relevant MIB objects: dot1q (dot1qBase, dot1qVlanCurrent)
Port MirroringThe Avaya 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 Avaya P330 supports Avaya’s ground-breaking SMON Switched Network
Monitoring, which the IETF has now adopted as a standard (RFC2613). SMON
provides an unprecedented top-down monitoring of switched network traffic at the
following levels:
• Enterprise Monitoring
• Device Monitoring
•VLANMonitoring
• Port-level Monitoring
This top-down approach gives you rapid troubleshooting and performance
trending to keep the network running optimally.
Note: Avaya Multi-Service Network Manager is required to run SMON monitoring.
Note: You need to purchase one SMON License per Avaya P330 Stack.
