The
Power sharing options
The BayStack 460 Switch can be used in conjunction with the BayStack 10 PSU or NES (Network Energy Source) DC Power System from Invensys (www.intergynes.com) to create a load sharing, RPSU, or UPS solution.
Load sharing
The BayStack 460 Switch provides up to 200 watts to power the devices. With the addition of a BayStack 10 PSU, up to 235 watts of total power can be supplied to devices. A
Redundant power supply unit support
Using a BayStack 10 PSU will provide up to 75 watts of power to be supplied to devices in case the power supply of the BayStack 460 fails. A
to connect from the BayStack 460 to the BayStack 10 PSU (AL2018008). Using NES DC power system, up to 200 watts of power can be supplied to devices in case the power supply of the BayStack 460 fails.
Uninterruptible power supply support
Using a BayStack 10 PSU will provide up to 75 watts of power to be supplied to devices in case there is an electrical outage. Up to 15 minutes of battery life is provided (this will vary depending on the amount of modules installed on the BayStack 10). Using NES DC power system, up to 200 watts of power can be supplied to devices in case there is an electrical outage. With NES system, up to 8 hours of battery life is provided (this will vary depending on the amount of modules on the NES unit).

Network management
Network management begins with the device. The BayStack 460 Switch supports four groups of Remote Monitoring (RMON) on all ports and is SNMPv3 compliant. The four groups of RMON are Alarms, Events, History, and Statistics. RMON2 support is achievable via port mirroring and the use of an external probe. The SNMP agent software resides in the switch and uses the information it collects to provide management for all ports in the stack providing comprehensive network monitoring capabilities. In addition, the agent also provides the ability to set up
Configuration management
The process of configuration begins with a single device but finishes across multiple devices. Java™ Device Manager is the device configuration tool for those functions that require communicating with a single device. It uses a common user interface and workflow that supports many Nortel Networks Ethernet switches. This commonality allows the network manager to become familiar with one tool instead of multiple tools. Optivity Switch Manager (OSM) performs the configuration function such as VLAN assignments, MLT, and multicast across multiple Nortel Networks Ethernet switches. Configuration is stored in NVRAM
Fault management and resolution
With Optivity Network Management System (ONMS), the network manager has quick access to the information required to manage and isolate all network events on BayStack 460 Switches. Tools, such as ‘Physical Topology View,’ inform the network manager how a particular event is
