Avaya C360 Overview
22 Installation and Configuration Guide Avaya C360 Multilayer Stackable Switches, version 4.5
- Edge port for eliminating the forwarding delay by enabling a port to immediately transition
from the blocking state to the forwarding state.
●
Port redundancy provides a backup for important links. If one link fails, the backup link
takes over, preventing disruption to network traffic. Refer to
Port Redundancy on page 140
for further information.
●
Inter-module redundancy is hardware-based and intended for important links that need to
be maintained even if there are changes in the stack. Refer to
Intermodule Port
Redundancy on page 141 for further information.
●
Port redundancy combined with 802.1w provides configuration flexibility in complex
network configurations.
●
LAG redundancy adds the reliability of port redundancy to LAGs, thus providing inter-port
as well as intra-port redundancy.
●
Stack redundancy - in the unlikely event that a C360 switch or Octaplane link should fail,
stack integrity is maintained if the redundant cable is connected to the stack. The broken
link is bypassed and data transmission continues uninterrupted.
●
BUPS (Backup Power Supply) - you can connect an additional DC power supply to the
BUPS connectors to ensure no disruption if the internal PSU fails. Refer to
Connecting a
BUPS on page 55 for further information.
VLAN Support
●
Support for up to 3,071 VLANs (in the range of 1-3071) according to the IEEE 802.1Q
standard for assigning VLANs associated with appropriate network resources, traffic
patterns, and bandwidth. Refer to
VLANs on page 120 for further information.
●
IEEE 802.1Q lets a VLAN span multiple switches. This provides management and control
of broadcast and multicast traffic and network security as well as all the other benefits of
VLANs over the entire network.
●
PVID - VLAN-per-port for maximum flexibility and security.
●
Multi VLAN binding (Multiple VLANs per port) allows access to shared resources by
stations that belong to different VLANs through the same port. Refer to
Multi VLAN
Binding on page 122 for further information.
●
Ingress VLAN security accepts or rejects packets depending on their tagging and the
VLAN binding mode on the port. Refer to
Ingress VLAN Security on page 123 for further
information.
