Security
Currently security can be implemented with X330WAN by connecting the X330WAN’s Fast Ethernet port via an external firewall to a port on the P330 switch. The X330WAN module is connected to the Internet via its WAN ports. For more information and a sample configuration, refer to "Configuring the X330WAN for use with an External Firewall" on page 43.
Note: X330WAN contains the infrastructure for all security functionality planned for future releases, such as Firewall and VPN. Licenses will be issued for the different security options as the features become available.
Convergence
X330WAN enables a combined data and VoIP solution when used in conjunction with a VoIP gateway, such as the Avaya S8300 Media Server. You can build your VoIP network using several topologies, such as:
•Connecting a S8300 Media Server or G700 Media Gateway to the LAN’s
•Connecting a DEFINITY with Prowler and CLAN cards to the LAN’s
In addition, you need to connect standard IP phones to the P330 stack in either of the above topologies, or Avaya Legacy phones directly to the G700 Media Gateway. Using these solutions, X330WAN provides access to the corporate WAN with end-
Avaya X330WAN Network Management
Comprehensive network management is a key component of today’s networks. Avaya provides multiple ways of managing X330WAN to suit your needs.
Command Line Interface (CLI)
The Avaya P330 CLI enables local or remote configuration of X330WAN. X330WAN configurations are saved in CLI format.
The X330WAN CLI is accessed via one of the following:
•Telnet to one of the IP interfaces of X330WAN.
•Use the session wan command from the Layer 2 agent of the stack, i.e. the Console port of the P330 stack master.
