Partitioned Switch Management
A user account includes a login name, password, and user privileges. The privileges determine whether the
user has read or write access to the switch, and which command domains and command families the user
is authorized to execute on the switch. The privileges are sometimes referred to as authorization; the
designation of particular command families or domains for user access is sometimes referred to as parti-
tioned management.
Available command domains and families are listed in the following table:
Per-VLAN DHCP Relay
The OmniSwitch 9000 allows you to configure multiple DHCP relay (ip helper) addresses on a per-vlan
basis. For the Per-VLAN service, identify the number of the VLAN that makes the relay request. You may
identify one or more server IP addresses to which DHCP packets will be sent from the specified VLAN.
Both standard and per VLAN modes are supported.
Policy Server Management
Policy servers use Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) to store policies that are configured
through Alcatel-Lucent’s PolicyView network management application. PolicyView is an OmniVista
application that runs on an attached workstation.
The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is a standard directory server protocol. The LDAP
policy server client in the switch is based on RFC 2251. Currently, PolicyView is supported for policy
management.
Policy Based Routing (Permanent Mode)
Policy Based Routing may be used to redirect traffic to a particular gateway based on source or destina-
tion IP address, source or destination network group, source or destination TCP/UDP port, a service or
service group, IP protocol, or built-in source port group.
Traffic may be redirected to a particular gateway regardless of what routes are listed in the routing table.
Note that the gateway address does not have to be on a directly connected VLAN; the address may be on
any network that is learned by the switch.
Policy Based Routing is supported on the OmniSwitch 9000 Series. The 6.1.3.R01 release provides
support for this feature on the OmniSwitch 6850 Series.
