Overview

The Cajun™ P330 family of stackable Ethernet workgroup switches includes a range of modules with 10/100/1000 Mbps ports and Layer 3 capability/ATM Expansion sub-module in Phase 2. The first product is the Cajun P333T switch which has 24x10/100 Mbps ports and an Expansion sub-module slot. The optional expansion sub-modules provide additional Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet connectivity.
A Cajun P330 stack can contain up to 10 switches and up to 3 backup power supply units. The stacked switches are connected using the Cajun X330STK stacking sub­modules which plug into a slot in the back of the Cajun P330. They are connected using the X330SC or X330LC cable (if the stack is split between 2 racks). The Cajun X330RC cable connects the top and bottom switches in the stack and provides redundancy and hot-swappability in the same way that modules can be swapped in a modular switching chassis.
The Cajun P330 is fully compliant with IEEE standards for VLAN Tagging, Gigabit Ethernet, Spanning Tree and Flow Control. This full standards-compliance, combined with auto-negotiation for 10/100/1000 Mbps and half/full duplex facilitates the expansion of your network to match your company's growing needs.

Cajun P330 Family Features

You can connect up to 10 Cajun P330 switches in a stack. Moreover, this stack can be either in one rack or split over several racks using the X330LC Long Cable, according to your requirements.
Cajun X330STK - this stacking sub-module is used to connect Cajun P330 switches in a stack, via the Octaplane.
Cajun P330 BUPS - this back-up power supply module supports up to four Cajun P330 switches.
One RJ-45/RS232 front panel console connector for both terminal and modem (future release) sessions.
Two fan units in every switch, with operation sensors.
One virtual IP address for managing the whole stack, the P330 stack is managed as a single entity.
Hot swapping of one switch at a time - by activation of the redundant cable: — Does not disrupt the operation of other Cajun P330 switches — Does not change stack configuration. — Does not require network downtime.
Connection through Telnet from the front panel ports of — multiple levels of password protection — login and inactivity timeouts.

Chapter 1 Overview

Layer 2 Features

Auto-Negotiation

Every 10/100 port on the Cajun P330 supports Auto-Negotiation which automatically detects and supports the operating mode and speed of a connected device. Auto-negotiation is also supported on the Gigabit Ethernet ports for flow control mode only.
This means that you can simply connect the Cajun P330 to Ethernet or Fast Ethernet equipment at full or half duplex without configuration.

Congestion Control

Congestion control is a key element of maintaining network efficiency as it prevents resource overload.
The Lucent Cajun P330 supports congestion control on all Ethernet ports, using the following:
Back Pressure in half duplex mode
IEEE 802.3x Flow Control in full duplex mode

VLANs

The Cajun P330 VLANs are fully IEEE 802.1Q compliant and can handle up to 3k tagged VLANs.
Special VLAN (Virtual Sideband) for management provides physical security for key applications.

Link Aggregation Group (LAG)

LAG provides increased bandwidth and redundancy for critical high-bandwidth applications such as inter-stack links and connections to servers. You can aggregate the bandwidth of up to eight 10/100Base-Tx ports, two 100Base-FX or 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 evenly divided among all the LAG links.
LAG and Port Redundancy
Redundancy can be implemented between any two ports in the same stack. You can also assign redundancy between any two LAGs in the stack or between a LAG and a port.
2 Cajun P333T User’s Guide
Chapter 1 Overview
Stack Redundancy
In the unlikely event that a Cajun P330 switch or Octaplane link should fail, stack integrity is maintained. The broken link is bypassed and data transmission continues uninterrupted. The single management IP address for the stack is also preserved for uninterrupted management and monitoring.
Hot-Swappable
You can remove or replace any unit within the stack without disrupting operation or performing stack-level reconfiguration. You can therefore adapt the P330 to your requirements on the fly and with a down-time which is second to none.
Backup Power Supply
Each Cajun P330 basic unit comes with a Backup Power Supply (BUPS) connector. If the internal power supply should fail, the Cajun P330 BUPS (available separately,) will automatically supply power to the switch for uninterrupted operation.
Fans
The Cajun P330 base unit fans have integrated sensors which provide advance warnings of fan failure via management.
Network Management Agent (NMA) Redundancy
Each of the integral NMAs in the stack can serve as the stack NMA while other NMAs act as redundant agents in “hot” standby. If the “live” NMA fails then a backup will be activated instantaneously.
Software Download
Safe S/W download procedure – backup code always present.

Cajun P330 Standards Supported

The Cajun P330 complies with the following standards.

IEEE

802.3x Flow Control on all ports
802.1Q VLAN Tagging support on all ports and 802.1p compatible

Cajun P330 Network Management

Lucent realizes the importance of comprehensive network management as a key component of today’s networks. Therefore we have provided multiple ways of managing the Cajun P330 to suit your needs.

Cajun P330 Manager

Cajun P330 switches come with free management software as standard. This program, which uses the Lucent CajunView™ graphical interface, allows you to manage a Cajun P330 stack without purchasing additional software. This version of CajunView P330 Manager does not require HP OpenView™.

CajunView

When you need extra control and monitoring or wish to manage other Cajun Campus equipment, then the CajunView network management suite is the answer. This suite provides the ease-of-use and features necessary for optimal network utilization.
The CajunView Suite is available for Windows® 95/NT®.

Port Mirroring

The Cajun P330 provides port mirroring for additional network monitoring functionality. You can filter the traffic and mirror either incoming traffic to the source port or both incoming and outgoing traffic. This allows you to monitor the network traffic you need.
Chapter 1 Overview

SMON

The Cajun P330 supports Lucent’s ground-breaking SMON Switched Network Monitoring, which the IETF has now adopted as a standard (RFC2613). SMON provides an unprecedented top-down monitoring of switched network traffic at the following levels:
Enterprise Monitoring
Switch Monitoring
VLAN Monitoring
Port-level Monitoring
This top-down approach gives you rapid troubleshooting and performance trending to keep the network running optimally.

Cajun P333T Front and Rear Panels

Cajun P333T Front Panel

The Cajun P333T front panel contains LEDs, controls, connectors and an expansion sub-module slot, as well as console connector. The status LEDs and control buttons provide at-a-glance information.
The front panel LEDs consist of Port LEDs and Function LEDs. The Port LEDs display information for each port according to the illuminated function LED. The function is selected by pressing the left or right button until the desired parameter LED is illuminated. For example, if the COL LED is illuminated, then all Port LEDs show the collision status of their respective port. If you wish to select the LAG function, then press the right button until the LAG Function LED is lit; if you then wish to select Rx then press the left button several times until the Rx function LED lights.
Cajun P333T front panel are shown below shows the Cajun P33T LEDs, buttons, the Expansion sub-module slot, and the RJ-45 console connector at the bottom right (see Figure 2.1 and Figure 2.2). The LEDs are described in Table 2.1.
