Chapter 11 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features
•TCP/UDP port ranges can only have sizes of 2n, where the lower port of the range is aligned to the range number.
—For example, for a range of 32 ports (25), the lower ports can have the value of 32, 64, 96, etc.
—This limitation does not apply when the device is in “Router” policy type.
•Only L3 rules (based on Src/Dest IP address) will be enforced on IP fragments. Therefore, if an L4 rule is applicable to an IP fragment, the fragment will be dropped.
•The following rules are not supported for TCP/UDP port numbers:
—“lower then”
—“greater then”
•If a packet matches a rule with a “permit” action and subsequently a rule with “fwd…” action, the packet’s priority will be changed to the one specified in the second rule, instead of being forwarded with the original priority as per “permit” action
—This limitation is relevant only for Layer 2 policy (i.e., when the policy type is “all”).
Configuring the P334T-ML for Multilayer Policy
This section describes the configuration of the
Configuration Requirements
The following specific requirements impact on the configuration of Multilayer Policy in an Avaya
•Multilayer Policy must be configured separately on each
•If the device Mode is “Layer 2,” the policy commands will appear in the L2 CLI tree; if the Device Mode is “Router,” the commands will appear in the L3 CLI tree.
•Policy List validation will be performed during list activation.
•A CLI command for policy simulation is available.
Configuration File Management
The following specific requirements impact on the management of the Multilayer Policy configuration file:
•Unlike other Layer 2 settings, the Layer 2 policy is not automatically saved in NVRAM. In order to save the Layer 2 or Layer 3 policy configuration, the user must copy the running configuration to the startup configuration file. To do this, use the command copy
