Power sharing options
The BayStack 460 Switch can be used in
conjunction with the BayStack 10 PSU or NES
(Network Energy Source) DC Power System
from Invensys (www.intergynes.com) to
create a load sharing, RPSU, or UPS solution.
Load sharing
The BayStack 460 Switch provides up to
200 watts to power the devices. With the
addition of a BayStack 10 PSU, up to 235
watts of total power can be supplied to
devices. A 2-pin cable is required to connect
from the BayStack 460 to the BayStack 10
PSU. With the addition of NES DC power
system, up to 370 watts of total power can
be supplied to devices.
Redundant power supply unit support
Using a BayStack 10 PSU will provide up
to 75 watts of power to be supplied to
devices in case the power supply of the
BayStack 460 fails. A 2-pin cable is required
to connect from the BayStack 460 to the
BayStack 10 PSU. Using NES DC power
system, up to 200 watts of power can be
supplied to devices in case the power supply
of the BayStack 460 fails.
Uninterruptible power supply support
Using a BayStack 10 PSU will provide up
to 75 watts of power to be supplied to
devices in case there is an electrical outage.
Up to 15 minutes of battery life is provided
(this will vary depending on the amount of
modules installed on the BayStack 10).
Using NES DC power system, up to 200
watts of power can be supplied to devices
in case there is an electrical outage. With
NES system, up to 8 hours of battery life is
provided (this will vary depending on the
amount of modules on the NES unit).

Network management
On-box management
Network management begins with the
device. The BayStack 460 Switch supports
four groups of Remote Monitoring
(RMON) on all ports and is SNMPv3
compliant. The SNMP agent software
resides in the switch and uses the informa-
tion it collects to provide management for
all ports in the stack. In addition, the agent
also provides the ability to set up policy-
based networks by supporting the Common
Open Policy Support (COPS) protocol.

Configuration management
The process of configuration begins with a
single device, but finishes across multiple
devices. Java Device Manager (JDM) is the
single device configuration tool for those
configuration functions that require commu-
nicating with a single device. JDM uses a
common user interface and workflow that
supports many Nortel Networks Ethernet
Switches. This commonality allows the
network manager to become familiar with
one tool instead of multiple tools.
Optivity Switch Manager (OSM) performs
the configuration function across multiple
devices. Configuration functions such as
VLAN assignments, MultiLink Trunking
(MLT), and Multicast are deployed across
multiple Nortel Networks Ethernet Switches.
The BayStack 460 Switch will be supported
in OSM version 3.0 in future releases.
