Summit24e3 Switch Installation and User Guide
ExtremeWare Overview
and the FDB timer used by the other vendor’s layer 2 switch. As such, ESRP can be used with layer 2
switches from other vendors, but the recovery times vary.
The VLANs associated with the ports connecting an ESRP-aware switch to an ESRP-enabled switch
must be configured using an 802.1Q tag on the connecting port, or, if only a single VLAN is involved, as
untagged using the protocol filter
any
. ESRP will not function correctly if the ESRP-aware switch
interconnection port is configured for a protocol-sensitive VLAN using untagged traffic.
Software Licensing
Some Extreme Networks products have capabilities that are enabled by using a license key. Keys are
typically unique to the switch, and are not transferable. Keys are stored in NVRAM and, once entered,
persist through reboots, software upgrades, and reconfigurations. The following sections describe the
features that are associated with license keys.
Feature Licensing
Summit24e3 switches support software licensing for different levels of functionality. In ExtremeWare
version 6.2e.1 (release 2.0 for the Summit24e3 platform), and above, feature support is separated into
two sets: Edge and Advanced Edge. Edge is a subset of Advanced Edge.
Edge Functionality
Edge functionality requires no license key. Summit24e3 switches have Edge functionality, without the
requirement of a license key. Edge functionality includes all switching functions, and also includes all
available layer 3 QoS, access list, and ESRP-aware functions. Layer 3 routing functions include support
for:
•
IP routing using RIP version 1 and/or RIP version 2
•
IP routing between directly attached VLANs
•
IP routing using static routes
Advanced Edge Functionality
The Advanced Edge license enables support of additional functions, including:
•
Rate-limiting ACLs
•
IP routing using OSPF
•
EAPS Edge (cannot be a core node on the ring)
•
Network Login
•
RADIUS
•
•
NAT
Verifying the Router License
To verify the router license, use the
show switch
command.
