spbm-config-mode boot flag
Shortest Path Bridging (SPB) and Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) cannot interoperate with each other on the switch at the same time. To ensure that SPB and PIM stay mutually exclusive,
Avaya implemented a new boot flag called spbm-config-mode .
• The spbm-config-mode boot flag is enabled by default. This enables you to configure SPB and IS-IS, but you cannot configure PIM and IGMP either globally or on an interface.
• If you disable the boot flag, save the config and reboot with the saved config. When the flag is disabled, you can configure PIM and IGMP Snooping, but you cannot configure SPB or IS-IS.
Important:
Whenever you change the spbm-config-mode boot flag, you should save the configuration and reboot the switch for the change to take effect.
For information about verifying boot flags, see Verifying boot configuration flags on page 51. For
more information about this boot flag and Simplified vIST, see Configuring IP Multicast Routing
Protocols on Avaya Virtual Services Platform 8200, NN47227-504.

Password encryption
Password encryption
The platform stores passwords in encrypted format and not in the configuration file.
Important:
For security reasons, Avaya recommends that you configure the passwords to values other than the factory defaults.
Enterprise Device Manager
Avaya Virtual Services Platform 8200 includes Enterprise Device Manager (EDM), an embedded graphical user interface (GUI) that you can use to manage and monitor the platform through Webbased access without additional installations.
For more information about EDM, see Using ACLI and EDM on Avaya Virtual Services Platform
8200, NN47227-103.
Enterprise Device Manager access
To access EDM, open http://<deviceip>/login.html
or https://<deviceip>/login.html
from either
Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0, or Mozilla Firefox 7.x.
Important:
You must enable the Web server from ACLI to enable HTTP access to the EDM. If you want
HTTP access to the device, you must also disable the Web server secure-only option. The Web server secure-only option, allowing for HTTPS access to the device, is enabled by default.
Avaya recommends that you take the appropriate security precautions within the network if you use HTTP.
If you experience any issues while connecting to the EDM, check the proxy settings. Proxy settings may affect EDM connectivity to the switch. Clear the browser cache and do not use proxy when connecting to the device. This should resolve the issue.
Default user name and password
The following table contains the default user name and password that you can use to log on to
Avaya Virtual Services Platform 8200 using EDM. For more information about changing the Avaya
Virtual Services Platform 8200 passwords, see Configuring Security on Avaya Virtual Services

Important:
The default passwords and community strings are documented and well known. Avaya strongly recommends that you change the default passwords and community strings immediately after you first log on. For more information about changing user names and passwords, see
Configuring Security on Avaya Virtual Services Platform 8200, NN47227-601.
Device Physical View
After you access EDM, the first screen displays a real-time physical view of the front panel of the device. From the front panel view, you can view fault, configuration, and performance information for the device or a single port. You can open this tab by clicking the Device Physical View tab above the device view.
You can use the device view to determine the operating status of the various ports in your hardware configuration. You can also use the device view to perform management tasks on specific objects.
In the device view, you can select a port or the entire chassis. To select an object, click the object.
EDM outlines the selected object in yellow, indicating your selection.
The conventions on the device view are similar to the actual device appearance. The port LEDs and the ports are color-coded to provide status. Green indicates the port is up and running, red indicates the port is disabled, and amber indicates an enabled port that is not connected to anything. The chassis LEDs appear on the far right.
EDM window
The following figure shows the different sections of the EDM window:
• navigation tree—Located in the navigation pane on the left side of the window, the navigation tree displays all the available command tabs in a tree format. A row of buttons at the top of the navigation tree provides a quick method to perform common functions.
• menu bar—Located at the top of the window, the menu bar shows the most recently accessed primary tabs and their respective secondary tabs.
• toolbar—Located just below the menu bar, the toolbar gives you quick access to the most common operational commands such as Apply, Refresh, and Help.
• work area—Located on the right side of the window, the work area displays the dialog boxes where you can view or configure parameters on the Avaya Virtual Services Platform 8200.

IP address for the management port
Figure 1: EDM window
IP address for the management port
At startup, the system loads the runtime configuration file, which is stored in the internal flash of the
Control Processor (CP) module. If the file is present, the system assigns the IP address for the management port from that file.
You can configure an IP address for the management port if one is not in the configuration file. For
more information, see Configuring an IP address for the management port
on page 28.
Static routes
A static route is a route to a destination IP address that you manually create.
The Layer 3 redundancy feature supports the creation of static routes to enhance network stability.
Use the local next hop option to configure a static route with or without local next hop.
You can configure static routes with a next hop that is not directly connected, but that hop must be reachable. Otherwise, the static route is not enabled.
Layer 3 redundancy supports only address resolution protocol (ARP) and static route. Static ARP must configure the nonlocal next-hop of static routes. No other dynamic routing protocols provide nonlocal next-hop.
You can use a default static route to specify a route to all networks for which no explicit routes exist in the forwarding information base or the routing table. This route has a prefix length of zero
(RFC1812). You can configure Avaya Virtual Services Platform 8200 with a route through the IP static routing table.
To create a default static route, you must configure the destination address and subnet mask to
0.0.0.0.
February 2015 Quick Start Configuration for Avaya VSP 8200 17

Fundamentals
Static route tables
A router uses the system routing table to make forwarding decisions. In the static route table, you can change static routes directly. Although the two tables are separate, the static route table manager entries are automatically reflected in the system routing table if the next-hop address in the static route is reachable, and if the static route is enabled.
The system routing table displays only active static routes with a best preference. A static route is active only if the route is enabled and the next-hop address is reachable (for example, if a valid ARP entry exists for the next hop).
You can enter multiple routes (for example, multiple default routes) that have different costs, and the routing table uses the lowest cost route that is available. However, if you enter multiple next hops for the same route with the same cost, the software does not replace the existing route. If you enter the same route with the same cost and a different next-hop, the first route is used. If the first route becomes unreachable, the second route (with a different next-hop) is activated with no connectivity loss.
Static ARP entries
Static ARP entries are not supported for NLB unicast.

Configuring an IP address for the management port
Configure an IP address for the management port so that you can remotely access the device using the out-of-band (OOB) management port. The management port runs on a dedicated VRF.
The configured IP subnet has to be globally unique because the management protocols can go through in-band (Global Router) or out-of-band ports (Management VRF).
Before you begin
• Do not configure a default route in the Management VRF.
• If you want out-of-band management, Avaya recommends that you define a specific static route in the Management Router VRF to the IP subnet where your management application resides.
• If you initiate an FTP session from a client device behind a firewall, you should set FTP to passive mode.
• The VSP 8200 gives priority to out-of-band management when there is reachability from both in-band and out-of-band. To avoid a potential conflict, do not configure any overlapping between in-band and out-of-band networks.
Note:
For more information about the management port, see Administering Avaya Virtual Services
Platform 8200, .
Procedure
1. Enter mgmtEthernet Interface Configuration mode: enable configure terminal interface mgmtEthernet {slot/port[-slot/port][,...]}

Configuring static routes using EDM
Description
Indicates the mask that the system operates a logically AND function on, with the destination address, to compare the result to the Route
Destination. For systems that do not support arbitrary subnet masks, an agent constructs the Route Mask by determining whether it belongs to a class A, B, or C network, and then uses one of:
255.0.0.0—Class A
255.255.0.0—Class B
255.255.255.0—Class C
If the Route Destination is 0.0.0.0 (a default route) then the mask value is also 0.0.0.0.
Specifies the IP address of the next hop of this route. In the case of a route bound to an interface which is realized through a broadcast media, the Next Hop is the IP address of the agent on that interface.
When you create a black hole static route, configure this parameter to
255.255.255.255.
Specifies the next-hop VRF ID in interVRF static route configurations.
Identifies the VRF in which the ARP entry resides.
Determines whether the static route is available on the port. The default is enable.
If a static route is disabled, it must be enabled before it can be added to the system routing table.
Specifies the status of the route. The default is enabled.
Specifies the primary routing metric for this route. The semantics of this metric are determined by the routing protocol specified in the route RouteProto value. If this metric is not used, configure the value to 1. The default is 1.
Specifies the route index of the Next Hop. The interface index identifies the local interface through which the next hop of this route is reached.
Specifies the routing preference of the destination IP address. If more than one route can be used to forward IP traffic, the route that has the highest preference is used. The higher the number, the higher the preference.
Enables and disables LocalNextHop. If enabled, the static route becomes active only if the system has a local route to the network. If disabled, the static route becomes active if the system has a local route or a dynamic route.

Pinging an IP device
About this task
Ping a device to test the connection between Avaya Virtual Services Platform 8200 and another network device. After you ping a device, the switch sends an Internet Control Message Protocol
(ICMP) packet to the target device. If the device receives the packet, then it sends a ping reply. After the switch receives the reply, a message appears that indicates traffic can reach the specified IP address. If the switch does not receive a reply, then the message indicates the address does not respond.
Procedure
1. Log on to the switch to enter User EXEC mode.
2. Ping an IP network connection: ping WORD<0–256> [-d] [-I <1–60> ] [-s] [-t <1–120> ] [count <1–9999> ]
