System Messaging Platform Reference Guide
Preface
The Nortel* Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 is a flexible and multifunctional
Layer 2/Layer 3 switch that supports diverse network architectures and protocols.
The Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 provides security and control features such as
Extensible Authentication Protocol over LAN (EAPoL), Simple Network
Management Protocol, Version 3 (SNMP3), and Secure Shell (SSH). The Ethernet
Routing Switch 8300 provides quality of service (QoS) for a high number of
attached devices and supports future network requirements for QoS for critical
applications, such as Voice over IP (VoIP).
This guide describes the security features available for the Ethernet Routing
Switch 8300. The guide provides instructions for initializing and customizing the
features using the Nortel Networks* Command Line Interface (NNCLI) and the
Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 Command Line Interface (CLI).
This guide provides a general description of the design principles underlying
System Messaging Platform (SMP) features for the Ethernet Routing
Switch 8300, and lists the existing SMP messages.
To learn the basic structure and operation of the NNCLI, refer to
NNCLI
Command Line Reference for the Ethernet Routing Switch 8300
(316810-C). This
reference guide describes the function and syntax of each NNCLI command.
To learn the basic structure and operation of the Ethernet Routing Switch 8300
CLI, refer to
CLI Command Line Reference for the Ethernet Routing Switch
8300
(317360-C). This reference guide describes the function and syntax of each
CLI command.
