Avaya P550R, P580, P880 manual Ipx, L3 Forwarding Cache

state is set to Enable (all multicasts included). If you do not want to enable rate limiting of multicast traffic on a port, either:

■Disable Intelligent Multicasting or

■Disable Rate-limiting on the port.

IP

The following problems have no workaround:

■If you create overlapping IP interfaces (interfaces in the same subnet), the state of the second interface is INACTIVE.

■If you enter a non-numeric value in either the Network Address or Mask fields on the IP Static Route page, all of the numbers are rejected and the field converts back to 0.

IPX

Problem:802.3 IPX routed frames are sometimes padded in such a way that they are incompatible and discarded by older IPX clients and drivers.

Workaround: Use newer client software (v2.5 or later) or use a frame format other than 802.3 (Avaya recommends that you use format 802.2). If you cannot use new client software or a newer frame format, use the following CLI commands to allow 802.3 IPX clients to connect:

■ƒIPX Forward Set

■ƒIPX Forward Get

Refer to the Cajun P550R/P880/P882 Switch Command Line Reference guide for more details about these new commands.

L3 Forwarding Cache

Problem:Attempting to change the maximum number of entries in the L3 Forwarding Cache while you are using a licensed 80-Series module will cause the switch to stop responding, if the switch is configured with 10,000 entries or more. The CLI or the Web interface will not respond and the scrolling text on the supervisor will stop.
