Survivable SIP gateway


The Advanced Gateway 2330s survivable SIP gateway capabilities enable business continuity in case of communication loss to a centralized UC/VoIP server. In this case, branch users can continue to make intra-branch calls, make/receive calls from the locally-connected PSTN, and access commonly used features such as hold, transfer, conferencing, and call waiting. When communication to the central server is restored, the Advanced Gateway 2330 automatically reconnects for resumed access to the UC and VoIP features of the central server. Since this feature is SIP-based, it is compatible with a range of Avaya and third-party SIP servers and phones. The Advanced Gateway 2330 base model supports registration of up to 25 SIP devices and a license option is available for registration of up to 100 SIP users.

Additional gateway management features


The Advanced Gateway 2330 provides a number of additional capabilities which improve gateway management and monitoring, increase security, and enable multivendor interoperability. Call Admission Control allows the network manager to define thresholds for on-net calling, after which additional calls are routed directly to the PSTN. This provides capability to manage WAN bandwidth and enable high quality communications from the remote branch. Call Detail Recording enables network managers to monitor call usage and patterns. End-to-end measurement and alarms based on packet delay, jitter, and loss enable network managers to proactively monitor IP network behavior and isolate conditions which may degrade VoIP communications quality before they impact end user satisfaction.

Offline prevention of unregistered users helps enable only registered and authorized users to be able to connect to the Advanced Gateway 2330 during periods of WAN outage.

Optional WAN routing based on Avaya Secure Router 2330


The Advanced Gateway 2330 can be software upgraded to a full suite of routing and wide-area networking (WAN) services. When upgraded, the Advanced Gateway becomes functionally equivalent to the Avaya Secure Router 2330 platform capable of delivering voice and data in a single platform. This can help to consolidate multiple devices and reduce an enterprises branch deployment costs. This upgrade adds advanced routing protocols (e.g., OSPF, BGP, RIPv2) as well as support for Layer 2/Layer 3 WAN protocols (e.g., Frame Relay, PPP) to the Advanced Gateways SIP gateway features. In essence, the upgrade converts the Advanced Gateway 2330 into a Secure Router 2330 with all the WAN, routing and gateway features of this platform. The resulting device can operate as a converged branch router with a full suite of data, WAN and gateway services and replace an existing WAN router that might be in place in the branch site.

Multiple package options


The Advanced Gateway 2330 is available in several models to address a range of branch/remote site needs and sizes. Each model consists of a modular chassis that is preinstalled with appropriate voice modules (e.g., FXS, FXO, PRI) along with software and licenses: AG2330-2FXO: Includes chassis, 2-port FXO module, 2-port FXS module and packet voice module (PVM) with support for up to 8 active DSP/TDM channels and 25 SIP survivability users. AG2330-4FXO: Includes chassis, 4-port FXO module, 4-port FXS module and packet voice module (PVM) with support for up to 8 active DSP/TDM channels and 25 SIP survivability users.

Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 5600 Series

With networks being increasingly important there can also be something of a tendency to make them increasingly complex. However this can be counter-productive. Management is crucial, and simplicity is the key to effective real-work management. Where network management is sub-optimal, or at worst, ineffective, the business is being placed at risk. This generally becomes apparent during periods of downtime and reduced application performance or availability. This has direct and significant impacts on the ability of the business to undertake its core activity. Security continues to be a significant concern for network managers, often featuring right at the top of key purchasing decision criteria. In addition to the traditional threats from external sources there is the ever-expanding insider threat scenario that network managers need to consider and prepare for. Security of the network and of the information that passes over the network is one of the paramount responsibilities of the network manager. The entire survival of the business is put at risk should the network fail to provide levels of protection commensurate with the sensitivity of the information supported. Operational support is one of the areas where major costs and potential savings can be isolated. Wherever possible managers need to set up their network so it is efficiently built and supportable. Increasingly network managers are asked to do more with less. The business can be impacted if the network does not have the appropriate embedded capabilities to enable efficient and effective operational support.

The stacking capacity for the Ethernet Routing Switch 5600 models is similar to that for the existing Ethernet Routing Switch 5500 models: up to eight (8) switches, except when this involves the 5698 models, and then the limit is a maximum of 400 ports; this being governed by software. Therefore it is possible to have an Ethernet Routing Switch 5600 deployment that offers: Stack of 8 x 5632FD 192 ports of 1GbE and 64 ports of 10GbE, or Stack of 8 x 5650TD 384 ports of copper (with or with PoE) and 16 ports of 10GbE, or Stack of 4 x 5698TFD - up to 384 ports of copper (with or with PoE) and up to 24 ports of 1GbE, and 16 ports of 10GbE; the last six Gigabit ports being combo ports either 1000BASE-T or 1000BASE-X SFP, or Any combination of switches (up to the 8 switches or 400 ports maximums)

The Ethernet Routing Switch 5600 products feature non-blocking switch fabrics, with up to 384Gbps of capacity (288Gbps on the 5632FD & 5650TDs), providing an under-subscribed architecture regardless of the combination of both network and stacking interfaces. Avaya Flexible Advanced Stacking Technology delivers a series of differentiated capabilities revolving around three key areas: Bi-directional shortest-path traffic forwarding this capability is at the heart of our resilient stacking architecture, allowing the shortest, optimal forwarding path to be selectively chosen for each unique data flow. Avaya Ethernet Routing Switches do not use the unwieldy logical ring or token technology that competitors use, but a star-based distributed forwarding topology that allows traffic to flow either upstream or downstream simultaneously from each switch in the stack, optimizing both performance and resiliency. Auto-unit replacement this crucial serviceability and operability feature enables any unit failure to be quickly and easily rectified; a hot-swap capability. Enabling immediate like-for-like unit replacement without impacting the remaining stack functionality and traffic, and without complex engineering intervention empowers operators to deploy our stackable solutions just like they would a chassis. The auto-unit replacement

18

Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 5600 Series

functionality automatically delivers the agent image software, the configuration file, and the diagnostic image software to the replacement switch. Scalable stacking performance the high performance logical backplane scales in direct proposition to the number of switches added the bandwidth scales linearly with the addition of each new unit into the stack and the number of ports/users that need to be supported.

The stacking connectors are directly integrated into the switches and recessed for additional robustness therefore no additional purchase is required, and a stacking cable is packaged with each switch. When a stack of Ethernet Routing Switch 5600 switches is created, a number of processes automatically occur: the integrity of the stacking cables is tested and confirmed, the switches are numbered and associated, the base unit is recognized and the temporary base unit is elected. When a stack is established, the Ethernet Routing Switch 5600 units form a stackable chassis solution, delivering crucial operational advantages: high performance logical backplane up to 1.152Tbps for a stack of 8 switches virtual hot-swap capability to facilitate the zero impact replacement of individual units centralized management and distributed forwarding non-blocking, wire-speed switch performance automatic unit replacement; software update and configuration download power redundancy with field replaceable AC and DC supplies up to 400 ports of 10/100/1000 Ethernet, or up to 192 ports of 1GbE & 64 ports of 10GbE the flexibility to stack vertically for wiring closet or core/distribution applications, or horizontally for deployment as the top-of-rack data center solution 100% stack-compatibility between the existing Ethernet Routing Switch 5500 and the new Ethernet Routing Switch 5600 models for enhanced investment protection and additional flexibility

Additionally, the Ethernet Routing Switch 5600 Series features field-replaceable redundant power supplies, both AC and DC variants and a variety of power ratings, to provide power redundancy and 802.3af Class 3 support without the need for any additional external power rack. The Ethernet Routing Switch 5600 Series supports a full suite of sophisticated software features and capabilities, and implements these via a tiered software licensing scheme.

Advanced QoS The Ethernet Routing Switch 8300s Quality of Service (QoS) features allow more efficient use of bandwidth to optimize existing network resources and capabilities, and also provide packet classification and marking at the edge, which simplifies the QoS solution at the core. By classifying, prioritizing, policing and marking LAN traffic, networks can deliver the right service levels for mission-critical and quality-sensitive applications. The Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 provides eight queues per port and advanced QoS features support the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) Differentiated Services (DiffServ) QoS architecture standard packet classification based on the contents of the IP Packet Header fields (e.g., voice, video and data). Avaya Automatic QoS With Avaya Automatic QoS enabled, an Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 supporting an Avaya Unified Communications solution automatically recognizes the special, private Differentiated Service Code Point (DSCP) values used by these applications, and optimizes the management egress queues. Without this automated functionality, operators would need to have detailed knowledge of how QoS works, and the private DSCP values, to enable manual configuration for optimized queue usage. With this feature, the process is automated and optimized, and protects against mis-configuration. The introduction of Avaya Automatic QoS support on the Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 will see the core functionality delivered first, followed by access functionality in a subsequent release. Traffic Policing and Shaping Traffic Policing enables the provisioning of different service levels by limiting traffic throughput at the ingress (inbound) port of the Ethernet Routing Switch 8300. This feature allows limits to be placed upon the amount of bandwidth that particular users or applications can push into the network. An associated capability, Custom Auto-Negotiation Advertisements (CANA), allows for only specified connection rates to be advertised by auto-negotiation, and therefore limits lowpriority devices to the appropriate connection speed. Traffic Shaping offers the ability to limit traffic on egress (outbound) from the Ethernet Routing Switch 8300, typically to comply with some form of service tariff. Enterprises working with Service Providers or Carriers can use this feature when they deploy Ethernet as an alternative to traditional Frame Relay or ATM WAN access solutions. IP Filtering and Deep Packet Pattern Matching IP Filters can be used to manage traffic and provide security, by allowing that specific actions are performed when defined criteria are matched. Only data that matches the pattern is allowed to pass through the filter, and these filters can be used to set traffic priority, drop or allow IP packets, as well as define the conditions for mirroring traffic (e.g., IP Telephony in a contact center environment). Deep Packet Pattern Matching is an advanced implementation of filtering that allows operators to match fields deep within the packet by specifying both an offset and a value to match.

Convergence and Unified Communications


The reality of todays networks is that different applications must be given the quality of service appropriate to their differing needs and requirements. The Ethernet Routing Switch 8300

24

Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 8300

facilitates enterprises transition to convergence-based applications by implementing key enabling technologies while minimizing capital and operational costs. Desktop Gigabit Many enterprises are looking to transition from Fast Ethernet to Gigabit Ethernet as the default for desktop connectivity. Gigabit Ethernet offers an alternative that is more strategic; as PCs gain more performance and efficiency, there is opportunity to exploit that zone between 100Mbps and 1Gbps. The Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 enables a seamless transition to Gigabit Ethernet by offering equivalent high-density 10/100 and 10/100/1000 modules that can readily co-exist in the same system. Standards-based Power-over-Ethernet Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) is increasingly becoming the default solution for connectivity for the converged desktop, often in combination with Gigabit Ethernet. The Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 supports the deployment of IP Telephony, Wireless LAN, and any third-party linepowered device by offering standards-based PoE support on both 10/100 and 10/100/1000 interface modules. Dynamic power management To increase flexibility and see that the highest priority users and devices have service when they need it, Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 PoE Modules support an option to configure the priority level for power delivery. In the event that total available power is less then that generally required by the sum of all the devices, power will be dynamically not statically served on the basis of the configured priority level. Device Auto Discovery The Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 automatically recognizes the connection of an IP phone or other convergence device and immediately provides power to it. The switch supports two schemes Avaya Auto-Discovery and Auto-Configuration (ADAC) and standards-based 802.1AB. This flexible capability eases the roll-out of convergence applications and devices, saving time and money. Integrated access control security Lapses or failures in network security can have a costly impact on the profitability of companies. Avaya has developed a multilayered strategy for enhanced defense against threats from external and internal sources. The Ethernet Routing Switch 8300, a key element of this strategy, supports comprehensive security services for access control at the access layer. 802.1X/Extensible Authentication Protocol The Avaya commitment to open standards is proven with the Ethernet Switching portfolios support for IEEE 802.1X/Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) across the entire range of Access Switches. The Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 has comprehensive 802.1X/EAP support with additional enhancements such as: Multiple Hosts Multiple Authentications (MHMA) Multiple Hosts Single Authentication (MHSA) Guest VLAN

25

Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 8300

Mixed EAP/Non-EAP Centralized MAC-based Authentication

These enhancements contribute to a readily deployable solution that is compatible with all standards-compliant third-party 802.1X/ EAP products. This provides enterprises with a means of effectively authenticating access to the network. Identity Engines Portfolio is the Avaya endpoint security and policy compliance solution. It inspects and assesses, and thereby enables compliance to policy and enables remediation at the network end point source, prior to full network access. With Avaya, the enterprise is able to define acceptable criteria for the security software installed on PCs, test these criteria and confirm user credentials all before the user is given any access to corporate servers and information. Any failures or inconsistencies during the check process can be resolved from the safety of a quarantined remediation VLAN, and guest users can be given access to an isolated VLAN (for example, Internet-only access). Assuming successful logon and checking, the users port is automatically assigned to the appropriate production VLAN, with the correct quality settings.

Enhanced usability and flexibility


With the network now needing to be closely aligned with the business often subject to seasonal variations, or changes through merger and acquisition activity the network needs to have great flexibility and the capability to adapt without impacting availability. The highlyversatile Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 includes a comprehensive set of features, which contribute to the most cost-effective solution for enterprises. Border Gateway Protocol (BGP-Lite) Large private IP networks can often have a requirement for sophisticated IP connectivity. This could be the need to support multiple connections to Internet Service Providers, or to satisfy a requirement to join a number of large internal routing domains and apply access policy. The implementation of BGP-Lite on the Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 is intended to provide a subset of the full BGP capability, initially being a reduced scale implementation of iBGP. The feature will support up to four BGP Peers connections, and up to 8,000 BGP Routes. The BGPLite feature is classified as being part of the Advanced License feature set. Equal Cost Multi-Path (ECMP) The Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 supports load sharing of Layer 3 traffic by configuring ECMP routing on up to four individual links. ECMP supports static, and RIP and OSPF routing protocols. Multicast VLAN Registration (MVR) Multicast VLAN Registration (MVR) is a feature that enables better support for wide-scale deployment of Multicast applications client PCs remain in their separate VLANs while sharing access to common multicast streams. Integrated Time Domain Reflectometer (TDR) The Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 provides an integrated TDR to simplify troubleshooting of the physical copper cable plant, enabling operations to quickly identify faults, isolating the source of problems, and enabling maximum uptime of the network. This provides for remote

Additionally, organizations are encouraged to dual-connect servers and, with minimum additional investment, the sub-second failover advantage is automatically extended beyond the boundary of the networking equipment, all the way to the application host. Competitive solutions, basing their failure recovery model on variations of the Spanning Tree Protocol, can not provide a comparable level of resiliency and simplicity.

Future-proofing the network


Network devices must be able to distinguish different traffic types and handle different traffic requirements. A sense of traffic class awareness combined with the ability to process each type uniquely sets the intelligent network apart from commonplace offerings. The Ethernet Routing Switch 8800 combines intelligence and performance to create a next-generation intelligent network solution. The networking industry is a perpetual work-in-progress, an unfinished masterpiece, and the number of standards and recommendations now runs into the thousands. Equipment that is based on a traditional ASIC architecture are limited in that these are set at a certain point in this history and cannot easily adapt to future change; typically this means that newer features and functionality are not supported purely in hardware but require additional software processing. The switching architecture of the Ethernet Routing Switch 8800 is uniquely based on Network Processing Units (NPU) rather than the ASIC technology typically found in rival products. NPUs are large-scale CPU arrays specifically designed for network-related functions such as efficient examination and manipulation of packet headers. The Avaya specialized highperformance NPU is known as the Route Switch Processor (RSP) and is an in-house development. It delivers fast-path protection through its ability to support in-life firmware upgrades and provides 10Gbps line rate switching and routing capabilities regardless of standards evolution.

Applications: new capabilities and choices optimize communications


Through advanced capabilities including VRF-Lite, IP VPN-Lite, and MPLS-based IP VPN on a single platform, the Ethernet Routing Switch 8800 enables virtual services across campus and metro environments to address new business requirements and applications. For example, a

33

Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 8800

university seeking to connect several campuses can choose traditional MPLS technology or can leverage the Avaya innovative IP VPN-Lite solution. Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF-Lite) Through VRF-Lite on Ethernet Routing Switch 8800, enterprises can use the same hardware platform to create multiple Layer 3 routing domains to support multiple customers and to keep traffic separated for both Unicast and Multicast. The VRF-Lite capability virtualizes routing within the switch, addressing business and networking challenges driven by activities such as mergers and acquisitions, data center consolidation, departmental or business unit segmentation, and evolving audit and compliance requirements. By enabling the switch to have multiple routing instances (up to 255), more sophisticated connections can be enabled in addition to support for overlapping IP addresses. Complete and total traffic separation at Layers 2 and 3 is the usual practice, however the system can be configured to provide inter-VRF forwarding capabilities, allowing shared access to common resources. Virtual Private Networking through IP VPN-Lite The Avaya IP VPN-Lite capability is an innovative IP-in-IP technology that leverages the RSP flexible forwarding engine delivering VPN services that are easier to implement, deploy, and manage. With IP VPN-Lite, enterprises can build any-to-any private connections between local or geographically dispersed sites using any IP infrastructure (private networks or via a public IP Service Provider). IP VPNs are typically used for cross-location connectivity and to create trusted connections to external partner organizations, leveraging IP as the common carriage and removing dependency on specific wide area technologies (such as Frame Relay or ATM) or exclusivity to a single service provider. The Avaya IP VPN-Lite solution is inherently less complex and therefore much more cost-effective than using the MPLS alternative. Managing IP VPN-Lite versus MPLS is simpler and does not require specialized carrier-class IT skills or resources. The foundation of IP VPN-Lite is simply an IP network, using the flexible RFC 2547/4364 connectivity model and it does not require an MPLS-enabled core infrastructure. This simplified solution can scale per carrier-class MPLS with the cost-effective simplicity of a solution designed specifically for the enterprise. Delivering total flexibility, the Ethernet Routing Switch 8800 supports classic MPLS in addition to IP VPN-Lite and VRF-Lite and all VPN technologies can be concurrently leveraged to deliver individually tailored solutions. Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) MPLS forms the basis for most service provider IP VPNs and is used in most WAN solutions because it delivers sophisticated connectivity and traffic engineering techniques. By implementing this same functionality the Ethernet Routing Switch 8800 can interoperate directly with 3rd party MPLS networks and participate in their IP VPNs, extending them into the enterprise campus network as required. Enterprise architects can leverage this interoperability to create Ethernet Routing Switch 8800-based MPLS environments that increase the overall level of transparency.

Enterprise-class and enterprise-ready: fit-for-purpose


Multicast Virtualization Multicast virtualization of IGMP and PIM-SM/SSM, along with Unicast virtualization, is supported on the same system by leveraging VRF-Lite. This extends the benefit of simplified network design, less investment in hardware, lower operational expense all of which are supported by Switch Clustering resiliency. Avaya Automatic QoS With Avaya Automatic QoS, an Ethernet Routing Switch 8800 supporting an Avaya Unified Communications solution automatically recognizes the special, private Differentiated Service Code Point (DSCP) values used by specific Avaya VoIP applications and optimizes the management egress queues. Without this functionality, operators would require detailed knowledge of how QoS works and private DSCP values in order to manually configure optimized queue usage. With this feature, the process is automated, optimized, and protects against mis-configuration. Management and Visibility The Ethernet Routing Switch 8800 can be managed by a variety of management tools, creating a flexible operational environment based on business requirements. These include: standardized Command Line Interface (CLI), Web-based Enterprise Device Manager, SNMPbased management (SNMPv1, v2 and v3), and the evolving Unified Communications Management framework for comprehensive, centralized, and multi-facetted network management. Unified Communications Management is based on common services authentication and access control, audit, etc. and then a number of integrated plug-in AJAXbased applets that deliver seamless task-specific capabilities all with a consistent look and feel: Configuration and Orchestration Manager; Visualization Performance and Fault Manager; Enterprise Policy Manager; IP Flow Manager; and Network Resource Manager. Provisioning wizards and other labor-saving tools help enable faster service activation and a more consistent approach to configuration; this has the added benefit of reducing human-error as templates are pre-populated with best-practice recommendations or mandatory values. The entire framework is context-based which enables a faster, more accurate and highly-intelligent approach to delivering both device-centric and network-wide management services. The Ethernet Routing Switch 8800 also supports enhanced system-wide troubleshooting information and provides comprehensive information should the CPU need to recover automatically. The Key Health Indicators (KHI) capability allows for the collection of statistics and information about the health of the system for troubleshooting purposes related to system failure, and identifies a small number of key health indicators that allow quick assessment of the overall operational state. Additional sophisticated system analysis tools such as RSP packet tracing and ERCD records dump enhance the serviceability and operational posture of the Ethernet Routing Switch 8800 platform.

Targeted at the wide are network (WAN) edgethe intersection of an enterprises private and public IP networksthe VPN Router family is optimized to exploit the cost advantages of the Internet while providing secure communications across the public IP infrastructure. A single VPN Router device provides IP routing, IPsec-based Virtual Private Networking (VPN), stateful firewall, encryption, authentication, and bandwidth management services in a highly-integrated platform. We are excited by the opportunity to partner with to assist you in overcoming the challenges you face including: Employees need the ability to work from anywhere. Access to the corporate network from anywhere is critical. Without a virtual workspace, employees cannot increase customer responsiveness and improve productivity. Not all applications on a corporate network require the same level of security. Subscription or license-based databases have strict access constraints, departmental applications contain sensitive information, human resource applications provide confidential personal data, and financial systems require restricted access. These applications, among many others, warrant additional security within the corporate network. needs to open your network to suppliers and business partners. However, needs to enable partners to access certain portions of your corporate LAN while protecting the balance of the network from intrusion.

We can deliver the following benefits: VPN Routers are architected to deliver the security required by enterprise IP networks with the ability to scale to address a complete range of high-performance IP services. We offer flexibility and simplicity. With a portfolio ranging from low-end VPN Router 1750 to the high-end VPN Router 2700/2750, VPN Router devices can handle the needs of the smallest branch site to those of the largest headquarters, and every environment in between.

Avaya VPN Router

gateway, IP access router, or stateful firewall device. A flexible software licensing system further allows them to turn up new services as they are needed. For example, the VPN Router can be installed initially as an IP access router, then VPN or firewall services can be added later via a simple license key. This allows quick deployment of needed services today with the flexibility to add new ones in the futureall without costly hardware upgrades. Built on our Secure Routing Technology framework, the VPN Router is designed with security inherent across all its operations. Secure Routing Technology integrates the major functional components of VPN Routersuch as management, access, routing, and policiesweaving a consistent security structure across these services. This provides scalability and high performance even when running multiple IP services in the same device. The VPN Router family consists of the following models: VPN Router 1750: Supports up to 500 tunnels VPN Router 2700/2750: Supports up to 2000 tunnels

Since it is standards-based, the VPN Router interoperates with existing routing, authentication, directory, and security services. This means the VPN Router can bridge the transition during the introduction of new IP services into the network. VPN Router devices can be initially installed behind an existing IP access device (router, DSL modem, etc.) without disruption to the network. Or, an enterprise deploying VPN Router as a VPN gateway can later add firewall services and/or transition the VPN Router to the primary Internet access device for that site. VPN Router platform is evolving from a VPN appliance to an integrated VPN Router. Rather than providing separate devices for separate functions (tunneling, encryption, authentication, routing, WANs and firewall) Avaya provides integrated security and IP services on a single platform.

Avaya IP Flow Manager

Avaya IP Flow Manager


Complexity of current network, type of application traffic it carries and the growing demand for strict adherence to Service Level Agreement for latency have placed considerable burden on network administrators. Networks have evolved into a newer paradigm where it is seen more as a service that is fully resilient to failures and would scale up as the demand for bandwidth and resource sharing grows. Avaya recognizes it is imperative that network administrators are equipped with tools that would not only provide detailed visibility of their network but also an expanded view of application behavior and performance. Avaya IP Flow Manager addresses the need to provide tools that would effectively monitor analyze and report application behaviors, and their bandwidth utilization trends. IP Flow Manager is a Unified Communications Management-ready application that is fully Web-based and uses the standard IP Flow technology with deeper analysis using packet capture, trending and threshold/alert notification capabilities. We are excited by the opportunity to partner with to assist you in overcoming the challenges you face including: It is difficult to be one step ahead of the game in identifying how the network is being utilized and what are the top consumers of network resources. What gets further challenging is the ability to get an enterprise view of the network to determine regions of over utilized and under utilized network segments. Most of the tools currently used by companies provide segmented view of the network and have complex deployment and maintenance requirements. Current networks are either already carrying converged traffic such as enterprise data, voice and multimedia traffic or are expected to carry such traffic without further bandwidth expansion. The paradox of todays networks is the fact that they are mostly over or rightly provisioned but under perform due to a lack of tools that would provide network administrators visibility of the kind of applications that are running on the network. This creates a false sense of bandwidth crunch due to improper utilization of network resources and lack of policy setting to block out unwanted traffic. Todays networks contain devices from multiple vendors each offering their own unique characteristics and configurable parameters using different tools and ways of setting them. To provide a network monitoring tool that is agnostic to vendor specific device settings while providing a network view is essential to reduce complexity and cost of monitoring.

We can deliver the following benefits: A holistic end-to-end view of IP Flows providing a realistic assessment of network bandwidth utilization and application behavior over a period of time Standards-based management supporting both IPFIX, NetFlow v5/v9 and thereby making it an excellent tool to do flow capture and analysis in a multi-vendor network deployment

A user can launch Top 10 views as separate tabs with an ability to look at the data both as a tabular and chart form.

72

Avaya IP Flow Manager

IP Flow Manager provides Top 10 Views

Alert Automation and Threshold Settings


IP Flow Manager allows a user to define threshold settings that would automatically trigger alert notifications when flow exceeds a user defined value. Alert notification can be forwarded as an SNMP Trap event, Syslog event, Email or a user can activate further analysis of the flow data using IP Flow Managers packet capture (applicable to the Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 only). Thresholds can be set against percentage of total traffic and for alert notification a severity of Low, Medium or High can be assigned to the event.

The system does not require any changes to your current infrastructure - it simply makes your existing network, with all of its structure and services, available wirelessly. We are excited by the opportunity to partner with to assist you in overcoming the challenges you face including: When an enterprise invests in a WLAN, they want improved user productivity, meaning that the WLAN service and supported applications must perform to user expectations. Usage patterns are changing quickly, and users are connecting more frequently with the WLAN and staying connected longer than ever before. Add to this a parallel investment in IP telephony and converged applications, combined with convenient desktop videoconferencing and the onslaught of new and embedded 802.11 clients (including dual mode cellular/Wi-Fi phones) and it is clear that demand for voice and multimedia over WLAN is imminent. Most of the recently introduced WLAN security standards like WPA2 and 802.11i address concerns relating to user authentication, and data confidentiality and integrity, but have done little to protect against RF-based attacks that focus on the WLAN infrastructure itself. Large-scale WLANs can present mobile clients with multiple points of connectivity at any given time. When too many users connect to a particular access point, individual performance suffers and system capacity is significantly reduced. As more and more users access networks wirelessly, this is putting a greater strain on existing WLAN networks. This causes slower performance, holes in coverage etc. While WLANs were primarily used for data access (Internet/email applications) in the past, there is the need to support more real time applications such as voice and video in addition to locating tracking applications.

Avaya WLAN 8100 Series is a next generation WLAN solution that delivers high performance that enterprises require. Through the 802.11n wireless standard the solution provides increased throughput and range. The WLAN 8100 Series is a complete solution that is ideal for enterprises looking to move users to wireless access for todays leading business, IP Telephony and converged multimedia applications. We are excited by the opportunity to partner with to assist you in overcoming the challenges you face including: Demands for voice and multimedia over WLAN: When an enterprise invests in a WLAN, they want improved user productivity, meaning that the WLAN service and supported applications must perform to user expectations. Usage patterns are changing quickly, and users are connecting more frequently with the WLAN and staying connected longer than ever before. Add to this a parallel investment in IP telephony and converged applications, combined with convenient desktop videoconferencing and the onslaught of new and embedded 802.11 clients (including dual mode cellular/Wi-Fi phones) and it is clear that demand for voice and multimedia over WLAN is imminent. Improving WLAN security: Most of the recently introduced WLAN security standards like Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2) and 802.11i address concerns relating to user authentication, and data confidentiality and integrity, but have done little to protect against RF-based attacks that focus on the WLAN infrastructure itself. Enabling adequate system connections: Large-scale WLANs can present mobile clients with multiple points of connectivity at any given time. When too many users connect to a particular access point, individual performance suffers and system capacity is significantly reduced. Greater performance, capacity and reliability: As more and more users access networks wirelessly, this is putting a greater strain on existing WLAN networks. Slower performance, holes in coverage, etc. Need to support more applications: While WLANs were primarily used for data access (Internet/email applications) in the past, there is the need to support more real-time applications such as voice and video.

We can deliver the following benefits: Reduce total cost of ownership: The WLAN 8100 Series provides centralized management and removes the complexities of supporting multiple overlay networks (LAN, WLAN, VPN, network management).

Avaya Network Resource Manager

The prospect of using a standard command line interface is almost inconceivable in medium to large network environments. It is a complex task to manually manage configurations, perform backups and software updates, and implement routine password changes individually on a device-by-device basis.

Avaya solution
Network Resource Manager is a software application and a key component of the Avaya Unified Communications Management solution. It streamlines and automates routine management tasks. It automates device configurations from templates, backup and restore configurations, and updates software. Network Resource Manager automates security administration tasks by enabling passwords and/or community string updates on groups of devices. Automating management tasks decreases the total cost of ownership. It maximizes staff efficiency. Automation reduces manual configuration errors that have the potential to undermine network security. Device configuration errors sometimes cause network problems that can be difficult to diagnose and correct. The ability to automate changes also reduces network downtime.

Application features
Configuration Update Generator Administrators can use the Configuration Update Generator service tool to run a common set of configuration commands on multiple system devices. With this tool, administrators can apply previously created template files to multiple devices with a single action. For example, this tool can quickly set up firewalls on multiple network elements of the same type on a network. Administrators can also populate specific data fields for devices from a comma-separated values file. This feature allows administrators to use Microsoft Excel to organize device-specific adjustments to configuration parameters in an easy-to-read format. Configuration Backup and Restore Administrators can use the Configuration Backup and Restore tool to backup and restore device configuration parameters. If administrators need to restore a device configuration, the tool automatically reboots the device after a restore operation. Software Version Updater Administrators can use the Software Version Updater tool to perform software updates of device images. Administrators can also create a package to update a group of devices of the same type. This greatly simplifies software updates on s network when new software releases are available. Device Password Manager With the Device Password Manager tool, administrators can select a group of managed devices and change an administrator password and an SNMP read-only and read/write community string. If has staff turnover or if has a policy of changing device passwords every 90 days, the process of updating passwords can be greatly simplified and rapidly executed through automation.

Avaya Identity Engines Portfolio

Avaya Identity Engines Portfolio


Network security has been evolving since its inception, sometimes slowly, sometimes in larger increments. As technology has shifted, best practices have slowly matured. What was a good idea two years ago is still likely a good idea today, with minor variations based on the evolving threats and business requirements. However, we are currently at an inflection point in the use of network-based security controls. Whereas previous designs focused almost exclusively on static policies, filter rules, and enforcement controls, a newer approach has emerged that promises much more dynamic options to address the increased mobility and diversity of todays network users. This approach, called the Authenticated Network Architecture (ANA), is based on the notion of authentication of all users on a network and the association of each user with a particular set of network entitlements. For example, guests are granted access only to the Internet, contractors only to discrete network resources, employees only to the broader network as a whole, and privileged employees only to isolated enclaves of highly secured resources. Avaya Identity Engines is the Avaya premier identity-aware Network Access Control suite. It is widely considered to be the next generation of standards-based network access control and is an evolution from the Avaya first generation Secure Network Access Switch. Avaya Identity Engines portfolio integrates with s current network infrastructures to provide the central policy decision needed to enforce role-based Network Access Control. This is accomplished by combining the best elements of a next-generation RADIUS/AAA server, the deep directory integration found in application identity offerings, and one of the industry's most advanced standards-based policy engines. All this is done out-of-band for maximum scalability and cost effectiveness. The Avaya Identity Engines portfolio can allow you to: Adhere to regulatory compliance needs Secure guest, visitor and contractor access and provide audit trails Collapse existing AAA servers into a single deployment Centralize policy management to improve operations and eliminate policy distribution costs Compartmentalize the network to improve resource utilization and reduce attack surfaces or exposure Eliminate 802.1X wired or wireless deployment complexity Implement a standards-based Network Access Control solution while preserving existing access technology investments

We are excited by the opportunity to partner with to assist you in overcoming the challenges you face including: Allow guest users or visitors temporary and restricted access to the network Enable only authorized devices to be permitted on the network

2010 Avaya Inc. All Rights Reserved

Avaya Identity Engines Portfolio

Enable users/devices accessing the network to be only given access to the portions of the network that they require access to

We can deliver the following benefits: What truly sets Avaya Identity Engines portfolio apart from the others is its unique ability to function in a truly heterogeneous environment including its tight integration with thirdparty back end directories. This enables enterprises to preserve their very significant investments in existing edge devices as well as directory implementations. Its plain English policy definition and deep abstraction capabilities makes the operational management capabilities of this solution significantly more intuitive and cost effective when compared to the competition. Given its standards-based approach, the Avaya Identity Engines solution can be relied upon for many years to come. This presents a dramatic contrast to proprietary solutions which are not only costly, but may also have a very short shelf life.

It is important to note that none of these solutions are mutually exclusive and the proposal includes the components necessary to implement some or all of the solutions described in this section. Guest Access The first solution utilizes the Avaya Identity Engines portfolio to provide for a Guest Access solution. With this solution, it is possible to enable front-desk (reception/security) staff or the visitors themselves to safely and securely provision temporary access to the network. The solution enables the creation of temporary accounts as well as assignment to restricted portions of the network. This solution applies to both wired and un-wired as well as 802.1X and non 802.1X enabled guests. A typical implementation may look something like this: Guest arrives at the facilities and proceeds to security/reception. Reception verifies their identification as well as who they are there to see. Reception points their Web browser to the Guest Manager URL which provides them a form (which restricts them to only the required information). Since most cases it is not clear if the guest is using 802.1X on their iPhone, BlackBerry, laptop, and so on, the most common scenario is to request the guests MAC address. A hot-sheet at reception can provide the necessary instructions on how to obtain this info. Once obtained, reception can enter the info in the Web form and this will create the temporary access for this guest. Once the time expires, the Identity Engines Ignition Server will instruct the edge devices to disconnect the guest. The guest simply uses wired or wireless access to access the network and if implementing the MAC address model then no further credentials are needed (nor is any user training).

Authorized Device Access This solution is commonly used as a mechanism to prevent rogue or unauthorized devices from connecting to the network. It is most common to register the MAC addresses for the approved devices which normally include devices like printers, fax, all-in-ones, network devices and wireless access points. These MAC addresses can be registered in the Ignition Server internal

2010 Avaya Inc. All Rights Reserved

96

Avaya Identity Engines Portfolio

store (and MAC level authentication is done) or they can be registered in an external database such as LDAP or Active Directory (in this case device level authentication is done). In either case, the Ignition Server is responsible for looking up the device, and if present and authentication succeeds, then instructing the network switch or access point to grant access. This allows the enterprise to centralize the device access list as opposed to configuring MAC level authentication on each network device in the enterprise. This also prevents someone from unplugging a printer and plugging in a device to get access to the corporate network. Even more critical, in todays world, this prevents an employee from bringing in their own wireless access point and unknowingly exposing the corporate network to the outside world. Restricted Access Where regulatory compliance and audit controls are a large concern, Identity Engines can be used to isolate users to specific portions of the network. While the previous two solutions are very straightforward and can be setup quickly, planning this solution requires additional prepwork. With this solution, the employees workstations are enabled for 802.1X access which can be as simple as enabling 802.1X functionality that exists as part of the Windows operating system. The network must also be constructed in a manner that permits segmentation. This simply means the ability to group like services/requirements to common areas. This could mean grouping by building (where employees should only have access to the network where they reside) or it could be more robust where VLANs are used to create segmentation such as the HR or Finance network. Finally, plain-English Ignition Server policies are created to evaluate the access request and provide the desired response. A common policy includes querying the Active Directory to determine specific group membership for key groups (e.g., HR Group, Building 1) and, based on the group membership, instructing the edge device to allow (or deny) access and provisioning the user with a specific VLAN or Access Control List (ACL). The proposed Network Access Control solution utilizes the existing network infrastructure as well as the Identity Engines portfolio to provide with the desired capabilities.

Identity Engines Portfolio Optional Components In addition to the components referenced above that make up the proposal, the following optional components are available. Identity Engines Ignition Analytics: Delivers at-a-glance reports highlighting user info, failed authentications and usage summaries. Ignition Analytics is a software application that is installed on a customer provided Windows 2003 server in the data center. The Windows Server can either be virtualized (using any valid virtualization technology) or can be standalone. On an operator-scheduled basis, the Ignition Server pushes its logs to the Analytics server where upon they are automatically imported into a database that is used for reporting. The operator can then use a standard Web browser to access the reporting system to run standard reports or create custom reports. With Ignition Analytics, it is possible to schedule reports as well as receive them via email and in various formats such as HTML, PDF or XLS to name just a few. Identity Engines Ignition Posture: Performs device health assessments to enable endpoints to comply with security policies. It is possible to interrogate the users PC to enable corporate compliance prior to allowing them on the network. This allows the operator to write policies to check for things such as the presence of anti-virus or personal firewall software. Posture checking can be very granular and advanced where one could not only check for the presence of anti-virus software but check that real-time anti-virus is running and that a scan has completed within the last 24-hours for example.

Furthermore, it is possible to auto-repair common out-of-compliance conditions such as out-ofdate virus definitions via simple user click of the repair button. The Ignition Posture module is actually two components. The Posture Integration Module is enabled on the Ignition Server and is required to define posture policies. An appropriate number of Health Assessment End-Point licenses are required for the actual client software that runs on the users PC to conduct the actual compliance check. Identity Engines Ignition TACACS+: Enables TACACS+ authentication and authorization policies. The optional TACACS+ Integration module is applied via license key to the Ignition Server in order to enable TACACS+ functionality. This allows the enterprise to consolidate all AAA requests to the Ignition Server to support both user and network operator authentication.

Avaya Visualization Performance and Fault Manager

Avaya Visualization Performance and Fault Manager


The growing myriad of communications devices, the rising demand for anytime-anywhere connectivity and the increasing need for convergence have created new challenges to network operations. This includes how to manage the whole system from end to end. Avaya understands network management and recognizes that offering you the right networking tools can lead to positive and significant benefits for your business. For example, network applications that automate tasks and reporting can improve efficiency. Having management tools within a single unifying framework can help improve workflow, reduce training requirements and decrease the complexity of managing a hyperconnected network and provide you with a smooth path to unified communications. Avaya introduces the Visualization Performance and Fault Manager to address the challenges and the need for convergence. Visualization Performance and Fault Manager is a Unified Communications Management-ready application. It provides advanced network discovery, topology visualization, fault and performance management. We are excited by the opportunity to partner with to assist you in overcoming the challenges you face including: It is difficult to manage the network as one entity which it is. With proprietary management applications your organization is required to use multiple applications to diagnose or monitor the network. Not only does this create complexity for network managers but also increases the overall cost to maintain the network. For each proprietary manager an additional server will be required, increasing cost. Also, time will be lost due to the network manager being required to merge data from multiple applications to diagnose a problem. Multiple servers increase capital expenditure (CAPEX). Multiple applications performing the same Fault and Performance function increases operational expenditure (OPEX). This may cause difficulty meeting your organizations IT budget constraints. Networks change daily. Devices are added and removed. The Fault Management platform must accommodate those changes dynamically and immediately. When a device is removed the application must be able to know this and present an accurate view of the network without this device. When a device is added it needs to be managed immediately and not force the network manager to wait for modules or kits to be released before device management can begin.

We can deliver the following benefits: A holistic end-to-end view of the network which improves the quality and reduces the time required to manage todays complex networks. Standards-based management enables quicker access to any new device being added to the network and the instrumentation it provides. Centralized management versus proprietary domain management reduces the number of applications used to manage the network. It also reduces the data being presented thus providing an easier management experience.

Avaya Visualization Performance and Fault Manager

The Visualization Performance and Fault Manager has the ability to discover every device on your network, even if you deploy equipment from numerous vendors. The application transforms complex network topology into simple-to-use, hierarchy-based maps, giving you clear, end-to-end views that help you quickly determine if network issues are physical or logical in nature. By having insight into how devices are connected and performing, you can zero in on aspects of the network and reduce your mean-time-to-repair. Personnel can be dispatched quickly, resulting in less downtime, greater productivity, elevated levels of user satisfaction and a proactive rather than reactive network management environment. Through the Visualization Performance and Fault Manager you can increase productivity for not only support personnel, but also every user on the network. The application enables you to determine that a switch has gone down, view which users are connected to the switch, and perform impact analysis. An example might include an email server failing. Using the Visualization Performance and Fault Manager, you could identify which users are affected and then take proactive measures, such as sending a broadcast voicemail to say, Were aware of the issue, and working to resolve it.

Network discovery
The Visualization Performance and Fault Manager offers heterogeneous-based network discovery (versus domain-based) with support for standards-, proprietary-, application- and OSbased discovery. This means that as long as the device is IP or SNMP-based, the Visualization Performance and Fault Manager can discover it. Discovery applies to servers, end nodes and operating systems. The application discovers all IP devices and nodes attached to the network, including servers, storage servers, printer servers, switches, routers, user end nodes (e.g., PCs and laptops), IP phones and more. But the functionality does not stop there. The Visualization Performance and Fault Manager also discovers the relationships that exist among devices in the network, including topology and links. Operating systems and applications on servers can also be part of the discovery process if operating system security settings allow.

It shows degrees of device connectivity based on device function and where it is located in the network (i.e., a layered environment approach). The visualization function also includes VoIP service-based views that provide you with insight into the application. Having service-based views enables you to differentiate between physical connectivity and logical- or application-connectivity issues. Finally, the Visualization Performance and Fault Manager provides device-centric views that enable you to see the relationship between devices, i.e., identifies a switch and all the devices connected to it, enabling you to perform impact analysis.

Fault management
Once the issue(s) have been identified through network visualization, you can use the Visualization Performance and Fault Manager to monitor the network for faults. Using information collected from the network and the devices themselves, the Visualization Performance and Fault Manager performs status monitoring and sends the information that you need to do event correlation and root cause analysis. The Visualization Performance and Fault Manager determines what is the most likely cause of the network outage by correlating all network events and determining the primary and secondary devices affected. Fault management also performs event handling. If an event occurs on a specific device, the Visualization Performance and Fault Manager will know that it has to take a certain action for example, send an email notification or page the appropriate personnel. The parameters and action required are defined by the administrator during the configuration phase.

Fault Management

Performance management
Through the Visualization Performance and Fault Manager, you can use performance management for two key activities: capacity planning and the monitoring of changes to the network. In the latter case, the Visualization Performance and Fault Manager enables you to monitor modifications to the network such as the addition of a new switch and observe how the device performs in the short term. From a longer-term perspective, the Visualization Performance and Fault Manager performance management capability also provides crucial information that can help you address your capacity planning requirements. For example, if traffic on a particular link begins to exceed a pre-determined threshold, such as 30 percent, the Visualization Performance and Fault Manager can record and report on the performance. If the trend continues, you can plan changes to your network accordingly to address growing traffic.

Diagnostics management
Diagnostic management allows the network operator to run and collect diagnostic data from network devices. The Visualization Performance and Fault Manager provides Layer 2 and 3 diagnostic information in an end-to-end connectivity rather than a hierarchical view. Through this capability, you can also print and export the data in graphical format.

Diagnostics Management

Scope (device classification)


The Visualization Performance and Fault Manager includes scope or device classification a capability that provides a logical grouping of devices based on device type. By default, all devices are classified based on their discovered attributes (e.g., servers, routers, switches, etc.). Scope can also be defined on a more granular basis that has relevance to your operations. Once devices are grouped, you can treat these devices as a single unit for the purpose of collecting performance information, conducting events handling, status propagation, etc. For example, if a link fails for any of the devices within the defined logical unit (e.g., core switches), the Visualization Performance and Fault Manager can be configured to perform event handling on that classification. Device scope can also be used for fault management and performance management and trending.
