New Hardware Features

Version 5.4 provides support for the following new hardware:

■10-Gigabit Uplink module.

For information about how to install the 10-Gigabit Uplink

module, see Installing the Avaya 10-Gigabit Uplink Module. For

information about how to configure the module, see

Appendix A, "Configuring the Avaya 10-Gigabit Uplink

Module."

New Software Features

Version 5.4 provides support for the following new software

features:

Security Features ■ACL Logging. This feature logs information about a sampling

of packets that match specific rules in the active access

control list. For information on how to use the ACL Logging

feature, see Logging ACL Activity on page 4.

■Ability to select read-only permission or read-write

permission for custom access types. For information on how

to specify these permissions when you create a custom access

type, see Configuring Custom Access Types on page 9.

Performance

Features ■Utilization Monitoring. This feature makes it possible for you

to monitor utilization of the:

—CPU—the number of packets per second that the CPU on

the supervisor module routes (slow path).

—Forwarding engine—the number of packets per second

that the 80-series forwarding engines route. This statistic

includes packets routed by the forwarding engines on 80-

series media modules (FIRE) and on the supervisor

module (FORE).

For more information about the slow path and FIRE and

FORE paths, see “Routing Overview” in Chapter 1,

“Introduction,” of the Avaya P550R, P580, P880, and P882

Multiservice Switch User Guide.

Doc. No. 650-100-701

Part No. 610-0211-094 December 2, 2002 3

For each of these statistics, you can set a high threshold. If

this threshold is exceeded, the switch logs the event in the

event log. For information on how to configure utilization

monitoring, see "Configuring Utilization Monitoring" on

page 17.

■Short-lived protocol filters. This feature helps conserve the

forwarding engine resources of the switch. By using a short-

lived protocol filter, you can set the switch to use the slow

path to route packets of a specific short-lived protocol. And

by using the slow path to route short-lived protocol traffic,

you conserve the resources of the forwarding engines.

For information on how to configure short-lived protocol

filters, see "Configuring Short-Lived IP Protocol Filters" on

page 22.

MIB Support ■The following groups and objects in the RMON2 MIB,

documented in RFC 2021:

—Protocol Directory (protocolDir) Group

• Protocol Directory Last Change

(protocolDirLastChange) object

• Protocol Directory Table (protocolDirTable)

The following protocols are supported in this table:

Ethernet II, SNAP, IP, IPX, TCP, and UDP.

—Address Map (addressMap) Group:

• Address Map Table (addressMapTable)

—Probe Configuration (probeConfig) Group

• Probe Capabilities (probeCapabilities) object

• Network Configuration Table (netConfigTable)

• Network Default Gateway (netDefaultGateway) object

■The following table in the HCRMON MIB (draft-ietf-

rmonmib-hcrmon-10.mib), documented in RFC 3273:

—Ethernet Statistics High Capacity Table

(etherStatsHighCapacityTable)

Logging ACL Activity

Overview

You can now log information about packets that match specific rules

in the active access control list (ACL). Each log entry contains the

following information:

■Source and destination IP address.

■Protocol ID (RFC 1700 defines these ID numbers).

■Time that the match occurred.

■Index number of the access rule that was matched.

■Forwarding information:

—The priority of the packet if the ACL assigns it a priority

and forwards it.

—Forward with no change in priority if the ACL

forwards the packet without changing its priority.

—FILTER if the ACL blocks the packet.

To avoid excessive consumption of the switch resources, ACL

matches are logged for slow path traffic at specific time intervals.

You can set the interval at which the matches are logged. The

default setting is two seconds.

ACL matches are not logged for FIRE path or FORE path traffic. For

more information about the slow path and FIRE and FORE paths,

see “Routing Overview” in Chapter 1, “Introduction,” of the Avaya

P550R, P580, P880, and P882 Multiservice Switch User Guide.

This section includes procedures for the following tasks:

■Enabling ACL Logging on page 5
