Application Notes for Extreme Networks Summit X450-24T

with Avaya C363T-PWR Stackable Switch in an Avaya IP

Telephony Infrastructure - Issue 1.0

Abstract

These Application Notes present a sample configuration for using an Extreme Networks

Summit X450-24T and an Avaya C363T-PWR Stackable Switch in an Avaya IP Telephony

Infrastructure. The objective of the test was to evaluate interoperability of the products.

Compliance testing emphasis was on Quality of Service. All test cases were completed

successfully. Information in these Application Notes has been obtained through compliance

testing and additional technical discussions. Testing was conducted via the

DeveloperConnection Program at the Avaya Solution and Interoperability Test Lab.

1. Introduction These Application Notes present a sample configuration for using an Extreme Networks Summit X450-24T and an Avaya C363T-PWR Stackable Switch in an Avaya IP Telephony Infrastructure. Compliance testing emphasis was on Quality of Service (QoS). The network diagram in Figure 1 shows the Avaya S8500 Media Server, Avaya G650 Media Gateway, Avaya 4620SW IP Telephone and a DHCP server connected to the Extreme Networks Summit X450-24T.

5. Configure Extreme Networks Summit X450-24T 5.1. Configure VLAN and Port The following commands configure a VLAN “s8500-voice” corresponding to the 70.1.1.0 network. This VLAN is configured as an untagged VLAN on the ports for the S8500 Media Server and the IPSI, C-LAN and MEDPRO of the Avaya 650 Media Gateway and as a tagged VLAN on all ports that may connect to IP telephones (in this case, port 5).

telephones with computers directly connected to them are configured as trunk ports with VLAN 21 as the native VLAN and VLAN 20 as a static-VLAN (see port 1/11).

The default mapping is shown in Table 3. The DSCP value 56 will be mapped to fwd7, which corresponds to the highest priority queue.

8. Verification Steps The following are verification steps for these Applications Notes: • Verify that the IP telephones register with the C-LAN of the Avaya G650 Media Gateway. Use mute “767#” (“QoS”#) on the Avaya IP telephones to verify the QoS configuration. • Verify that an IP telephone and the PC attached to the telephone are on different VLANs. • Verify that the calls use G.
