The P130 family is a line of easy-to-use, cost-effective workgroup
10/100M switches which allow you to build smart network edge/small workgroup
solutions.
The P130 line includes the following fixed-configuration Layer-2/Multilayer Policy
workgroup switches:
•P133T – twenty-four 10/100BaseTX ports.
•P133F2 – twenty-four, 10/100BaseTX and two 100BaseFX ports.
•P133G2 – twenty-four, 10/100BaseTX and two GBIC SFP (Small Form
Pluggable) ports.
•P134G2 – fourty-eight, 10/100BaseTX and two GBIC SFP ports.
•P133GT2 – twenty-four, 10/100BaseTX and two 100/1000BaseT ports.
The P130 switches have the following features:
— Auto-Negotiation
— Link Aggregation Groups (LAG)
— 802.1Q VLAN
— QoS and Priority Support
— LAG and Link (Port) Redundancy
— Spanning Tree
— Congestion Control
— IP Multicast Filtering (IGMP Snooping)
— Port Mirroring
— Switch Configuration File
— Software Download
— Three options for Network Management
•The P130 uses Multilayer Policy technology to provide advanced policy-based
networking (with the purchase of an Multilayer Policy License). The policies are
used to enforce the Quality of Service (QoS) of IP packets, which are sent by
locally attached stations.
•You can cascade up to four P133G2 and P134G2 modules using the Avaya
X130CK kit which includes low- cost integrated SFP transceivers and a 2 m
cascading cable. The X130CK provides up to 2 Gbps traffic throughput between
the modules.

P130 Features
The standard P130 features of the switch are described below.
Auto-Negotiation
Every 10/100 port on the P130 supports Auto-Negotiation which automatically
detects and supports the duplex mode and speed of a connected device. Autonegotiation is also supported on the Gigabit Ethernet ports for flow control mode
only.
This means that you can simply connect the P130 to Ethernet or Fast Ethernet
equipment at full or half duplex without configuration.
Link Aggregation Group (LAG)
LAG provides increased bandwidth and redundancy for critical high-bandwidth
applications such as inter-switch links and connections to servers. You can
aggregate the bandwidth of up to eight 10/100Base-Tx or two 1000Base-X ports.
Load sharing ensures that if one of the port connections fails, the other connections
will assume the load seamlessly. Load balancing guarantees that the traffic load at
any level will be divided among all the LAG links (see also the LAG documentation
module).
LAGs can be created in the switch in order to increase bandwidth and resiliency in
switch-to-switch and server-to-switch connections. P133T supports up to 3 LAGs,
P133G2, P133GT2 and P133F2 support up to 4 LAGs, P134G2 supports up to 6
LAGs.
Each LAG is considered a single switch interface. Packets are not forwarded
between its ports, and non-unicast packets are transmitted only through one port the "Flood"(or "Base") port. In addition, packet order is maintained within each
session.
2 Avaya P130 User’s Guide
VLANs
Chapter 1 Overview
The packets are distributed between ports in a LAG according to Source-MAC &
Destination-MAC addresses. Three Least Significant Bits (LSB) of MAC source
address are logically XOR-ed with 3 LSBs of MAC Destination Address. This
scheme ensures enhanced load balancing of the traffic, sent out through the LAG
ports.
You can manually configure a LAG using the CLI or a Management application.
When initially created, the LAG will inherit all parameters from the Base (the 1st
configured) port. These include Admin State (enable/disable), VLAN ID, Tagging
Mode, Priority Level, STA Enable/Disable, Auto-Neg, Flow Control, Duplex and
Speed. Each parameter change of the LAG interface will change this parameter in all
ports in the LAG.
If a link has failed, traffic distribution continues on other ports in the LAG. The port
is still configured as a member in the LAG and resumes operation in case of link up.
If you manually remove the port from the LAG, the port will automatically become
disabled. You can then change any of the port’s configuration parameters.
To set up a LAG or show an existing LAG configuration see the set/show channel commands in the CLI Chapter.
The P130 suports 62 VLANs out of 4K tagged /untagged VLANs [1…4079]. All
VLANs are fully IEEE 802.1Q compliant (VLANs [4080…4095] reserved for internal
use).
The P130 has Standard VLAN MIB support.
Multiple VLANs per Port
The P130 provides the ability to set multiple VLANs per port. The two available
Port Multi-VLAN binding modes are:
•Bound to Configured - the port supports all the VLANs configured in the
switch/stack. These may be either Port VLAN IDs (PVID) or VLANs that were
manually added to the switch.
•Statically Bound - the port supports VLANs manually configured on it.
QoS and Priority Support
The P130 supports end-to-end QoS and provides the following tools:
•Queuing - Four egress queues per port
•Port Priority - Transparent IEEE 802.1p and per port basis
•Scheduling - Weighted Round Robin
Avaya P130 User’s Guide3
Chapter 1 Overview
LAG and Link (Port) Redundancy
Redundancy can be implemented between any two ports in a switch. You can also
assign redundancy between any two LAGs in the switch or between a LAG and a
port.
Spanning Tree
The P130 implements the IEEE 802.1D Spanning Tree (STP) algorithm in order to
allow backup paths and prevent loops throughout the Physical LAN. Spanning Tree
is not available when redundant links are defined.
The P130 supports Spanning Tree per port as well as Spanning Tree per module, as
may be required on the network.
Note: You cannot configure both Port Redundancy and Spanning Tree on an
individual P130 switch.
Congestion Control
Congestion control is a key element of maintaining network efficiency as it prevents
resource overload.
The P130 supports congestion control on all Ethernet ports, using the following:
•Head Of Line (HOL) Blocking Prevention
•IEEE 802.3x Flow Control in full duplex mode.
Advanced Congestion Control (Broadcast storm control)
Limits broadcast, multicast, and unknown packet traffic that traverses the switch.
IP Multicast Filtering (IGMP Snooping)
The IP Multicast Filtering uses the IGMP Snooping protocol to send a single copy of
an IP packet to multiple destinations, and can be used for various applications
including video streaming and video conferencing. This protocol reduces network
congestion and allows more efficient switching of IP multicast traffic (see also the IP
Multicast documentation module).
On Local Area Networks (LANs), IP Multicast packets are transmitted in MAC
Multicast frames. Traditional LAN switches flood these Multicast packets to all
stations in the VLAN. Multicast filtering functions may be added to the Layer 2
switches to avoid sending Multicast packets where they are not required. Layer 2
switches capable of Multicast filtering send the Multicast packets only to ports that
connect members of that Multicast group. This is typically based on IGMP.

Port Mirroring
The P130 has a built-in ”mirroring” capability, that allows forwarding of all the
traffic to/from specific ”copy source” to a ”copy destination” (also called a probeport or sniffer-port), excluding errors and frames with errors.
When you require detailed information about the traffic at a particular port, rather
than attaching an expensive analyzer to each port (or moving such a probe from
port to port), the network administrator may attach an external probe to any P130
port defined as a destination port and analyze any switched port by mirroring its
Rx/Tx or Tx only traffic to that destination port.
Note: Port Mirroring must be configured individually for each P130 switch.
Switch Configuration File
The Configuration File feature allows the user to read the P130 configuration
parameters and save them to a file on the station. The switch configuration
commands in the file are in CLI format. The user can edit the file (if required) and
re-configure the P130 by downloading the configuration file. Although the file can
be edited, it is recommended to keep changes to the file to a minimum.
