Notes de l'éditeur
- Let ’ s start with the most important talking point in the industry for the last few years: virtualization. Virtualization is not as novel as it once was and many network managers have become skilled at running all sorts of workloads in that environment. Rather than running up against diminishing returns, it seems "the more you virtualize, the more you realize the benefits of virtualization," Lazar said. In his research, about 16% of survey respondents said they are virtualizing their UC servers now, while 37.8% have no plans to do so. The rest are at some stage of considering or planning a virtual deployment. In any case, virtualization is changing the game. All our applications are or will be virtualized. Virtualization is impacting networking architecture and all suppliers need to take it into account
- Virtualisation is one major trend but not the only one. Adoption of BYOD is growing very fast. Access to your network needs to be opened-up to a lot of different devices and to continue to deliver the expected level of security. The Cloud is the third topic but for Avaya, cloud alone is nothing, we need to speak about the collaborative cloud. This is our vision with Avaya VENA. The network has evolved to a private cloud that extends to the entire enterprise. Users can access corporate applications on whatever device they choose without compromising security and without causing a lot of extra work for IT staff. Its about users collaborating in real-time from anywhere with a positive user experience. And its about providing a new level of service to users that is more equivalent to what they are getting at home. Finally its about enabling IT to be more efficient and having a network that can facilitate changing business objectives rather than constantly being a hindrance.
- Have a look at this recent quote from Zeus Kerravala. Current Analysis from December 28 th , 2012 is also saying: “ Avaya networking is aggressively competing against other networking companies through innovation, both with the early adoption and support of standards in addition to some strong technology in their intellectual property archives ” We have driven a lot of the standards related to Ethernet networks. We have been first to market with technologies that really brought Ethernet networks to a new level of reliability. We invented resilient stacking, active, active high availability with Switch Clustering and we have the industry's most comprehensive fabric implementation. We need to make sure that customers put us on their short lists for network infrastructure upgrades since we do have a compelling story to tell.

- What do the nines mean, everybody asks for so many nines. Take a look at what it means if you have a 3x9 availability, compared to 5x9? Avaya offers 5x9! For the same or lower cost than competitive offerings.
- Explain the difference between networking outage and application outage. Sub second failover of the network means uninterupted applications Voice example. After a couple of seconds you might hang up (not nice in a call centre) Data example: oracle database that hangs due to client-server synchronisation issues. The server hangs and requires a reboot. Rebooting a server may take 4 to 8 hours!, so you have an application outage of 4-8 hours due to a networking outage of 45 seconds. 45 secs is best case, STP may take minutes depending on the size of the network. RSTP does not work in all conditions. Link flap-> normal STP (long failover) root bridge outage -> long STP failover instead of rapdi

- This presentation will not go through technical details but we would like to emphase two areas: First one is Avaya VENA (Virtual Enterprise Network Architecture) is an end to end cloud grade network architecture that is designed for real-time applications. Its purpose is to facilitate the transition towards full mobile collaboration and to provide a foundation that will enable the enterprise to be ready for the next wave of applications and devices that are likely to emerge over the next 4 years. Avaya VENA is about building a private cloud so that applications are accessible from anywhere, at anytime, from any device. Its about simplifying the network, having a more agile network that is easy to make changes to and roll out new services on and its about driving down costs and enabling IT to be more efficient by alleviating many of the manual, time consuming tasks that must be done in today ’ s network environments. The architecture is an end to end network architecture that starts in the Data Center and ultimately extends into the campus and the branch. It consists of a number of key technologies including: Ethernet Switching – Including next generation Ethernet hardware for the Data Center, campus and remote locations. This includes a suite of different virtualization technologies including an end to end network fabric. Wireless – Including a unique architecture that positions customers for the increase in mobile video traffic that is expected over the next couple of years. Branch – Including a unified branch solution that consists of a range of Routers and VPN Appliances that provide secure remote connectivity and application support for branches and individuals we will be extending our fabric into these remote locations for increased simplicity and to deploy advanced services. Access control – Critical for dealing with consumertization of IT and helps tie the wired and the wireless infrastructure into a unified access network that offers consistent policies and security. Finally Network Management – Managing the virtualized and physical environments is going to be complex without the appropriate management tools to help manage, configure and troubleshoot the network. You will hear more about VENA and Virtualisation later today.

- 2010 Avaya Inc. All rights reserved. This slide shows a quick comparison on which products and resiliency technologies CISCO, HP, Juniper and Avaya are using in the Edge, Core and Data Centre (DC). It can be seen that Cisco, HP and Juniper are not consistent with their resiliency technologies from end to end, unlike Avaya. Also they are using a lot of proprietary solutions which are not open standard. Only Avaya has a consistent end-to-end solution which uses the same technologies in every area.
- High Scalability Unique architecture that integrates wireless LAN forwarding directly into the switching architecture providing the most cost effective way to support the mobile traffic explosion Real-time Optimised Industry leading video & voice scaling over Wi-Fi 30% more video, 20% more voice over Wi-Fi than competition Unified Solution with lower TCO Unified Network, Management & Policy Controllers become virtual applications; not linked to hardware
- In today’s networks, the functions of Control Plane and Data Plane are housed in a single piece of hardware: Appliance or Blade In Nortel’s next-generation architecture, we’ve split these functions; The Control Plane or Wireless Control Point can be implemented on a dedicated h/w or appliance The more compelling aspect of this is that once separated, this function lends itself to virtualization: Memory intensive, transaction based function that can be run on a Virtual Server rather dedicating h/w to this function. In fact our demo network has done just that. We have the Wireless Control Plane running on a PC with VM Ware. For the Data Plane or Wireless Switching Point, again this allows for implementation on dedicated h/w or appliance. This allows for more efficient scaling as I’ll show next. For customers that are also using Nortel switching products, the value is even more pronounced; The Wireless Switching Point can be implemented via s/w on Nortel’s wireless enable core or edge switches eliminating the need to add h/w as the wireless traffic grows. Optimization Utilize the Data infrastructure to carry the WLAN traffic without the need to terminate in Wireless Controllers (Appliances/Blades) Flexibility Core or Edge traffic flows to meet customer’s needs Improved Resiliency Wireless Control Point clustering and Hitless switching failover (SMLT) Improved Scalability Control and Data Planes scale independently and at different rates

- Third party validation of our voice and video performance… In August 2011, third party testing was conducted by Miercom, a leading, independent product test center, in Santa Clara, California. The testing compared voice call density and video stream density of Avaya WLAN 8100 versus Cisco, Aruba and Juniper (Trapeze) WLAN (leading WLAN vendors). Against the competitive set average, Avaya WLAN 8100 was 26% better in supporting 802.11a voice calls, 31% better in supporting 802.11g voice calls and 31% better in unicast video.
- A key application for wireless networks is guest access. After all, we are ‘guests’ whenever we access a wireless hotspot in a hotel, airport or coffee shop. Avaya identified that wireless guest access was not well supported outside of dedicated hot spots due to the complex applications used for provisioning. Most companies either had an open system or one with shared passwords due to the complexity or the provisioning tools. This makes tracking of individual online behavior almost impossible. Our engineers developed a guest access provisioning module that works in conjunction with our network access control application (Identity Engines). This provides an extremely simple guest access provisioning interface that can be used by reception staff, security staff or employees and allows them to easily and quickly generate individual logon credentials for guests. The organization can lock down the wireless network, but also provide quick and easy access for those that need it. As a part of Avaya’s overall NAC solution guest access can be integrated into the main corporate access control solution used for employees, corporate devices and BYOD. Activation options Immediate activation Future activation Account duration time Activate on first login Intuitive: Provision guest accounts in <10 seconds Eliminates the need for a technician Detailed Tracking and Auditing
- When it comers to BYOD, the single most important thing IT needs to know is who is using what and is it safe. As we saw at the beginning , users are extremely keen to upgrade to the latest software/operating system even if there are known issues. If a new release comes out over the weekend then chances are 15-20% of your user base will be using it by Monday. IT needs to know this, especially if sensitive apps are being used. To assist with this, Avaya has developed a device fingerprinting capability as part of the NAC solution. Using this device finger printing we can identify the user, device, OS version and browser being used by the client and then assign this an access level. When a device/OS combination is deemed safe it can be assigned a more trusted access level. If the same user has another device with another OS version or updates their main device then device fingerprinting will detected this and assign a different trust level. Device fingerprinting can also be used to get a picture of the type and quantity of devices clients users are using and also how often they upgrade. This information could then be used to guide IT on what apps or browsers need testing first with corporate applications. © 2009 Avaya Inc. All rights reserved.

Delivering 4-5X reliability & 2X performance advantage over the market leader, and offering tighter integration between traditional Branch devices – WAN Router, LAN Switch, Firewall, and VPN Gateway – they also feature innovative integration of Unified Communications functionality with support for 3rd-party compatibility with SIP Call Servers & IP Phones, and a survivable SIP Voice platform for the Branch. SIP Survivability & Inter-operability completed with Traditional Nortel CS1K/2100 as well as recently (March 2010) against Avaya Aura ! - Official software release in mid April 2010. In addition to the advanced Unified Branch products we also offer traditional WAN Core Routers for highly-scaled Enterprise applications. Avaya has one of the 3 credible Enterprise Class router, while we can compete head to head with Cisco & Juniper, we typically want to approach customers from the UC/SIP side and tell them about all the network services this Advanced SIP Gateway will offer. Some new positioning for SR2330 will be launched in June 2010 as AG2330 ! This will enable us to fully take advantage of the Avaya sales force.
- COM is a real-time, multi-user configuration management tool that offers intuitive wizards and templates to simplify configuration of complex technologies including SMLT/MLT, Multicast, Routing, VLAN and VRF. It also provides centralized 'off-box' element management to address the needs associated with managing inventory and updates. In addition, it delivers role-based access control with audit logging, ensuring that only those authorized to make configuration changes are allowed to do so. Acting as a unified configuration management platform, it delivers an extensible architecture allowing it to support pluggable device add-ons and loadable software components. Why is it needed? Configuring technologies like SMLT is extremely complex and can take many hours. With intuitive wizards and templates, configuration times are significantly reduced and parameters are built in to make sure that users enter data in correctly. VLAN managers as well make it simple to centrally create VLANs across the network, also saving time and resources. Not only are configuration setup times reduced, but so is the time needed to make configuration device changes throughout the network. This offers significant savings on operational costs. In addition, since configuration is performed centrally, the likelihood for configuration errors that come from manual configuration is reduced. And finally, the network is also protected from unauthorized changes.
- VPFM is Avaya’s performance monitoring tool. It delivers device discovery, troubleshooting and performance management of all IP/SNMP devices including phones, call servers, switches and routers regardless of vendor. It provides topology maps of the network and shows how devices are connected as can be seen in the bottom and top right-hand corner screen shots. It also does performance trending to see how performance changes over time as is shown in the top left screen shot. It also manages faults and uses correlation to tie events together, to help determine the root cause as one event often leads to several others. VPFM will alert the appropriate network administrators via an email or a page when a switch goes down or when performance metrics step outside of preset thresholds. In addition, VPFM has the ability to divide the network into device classifications based on function, so that users drill down into only the specific areas that they are interested in monitoring. VPFM is needed as it helps organizations understand how their network is setup, how it’s operating, and determine the root cause of problems in order to quickly fix them. VPFM helps to decrease the Mean Time to Recovery, through proactive monitoring and root cause analysis, ensuring that the network is always up and running. Through reducing network downtime, it saves significantly on costs. It also reduces complexity by allowing organizations to quickly and easily visualize their networks and respond when things are amiss.
- IPFM is a performance monitoring tool that analyzes application and user behavior on the network. It provides multi-vendor capabilities as it works with any switch supporting IPFIX as well as the NetFlow v5 and NetFlow v9 standards. Through its collection of IPFIX traffic, it provides insight into the network so that administrators can prevent abuse and facilitate growth planning. It offers views of top applications, users, subnets, etc. in easy to understand, at a glance summary formats. It also allows administrators to set thresholds so that they’re informed when traffic exceeds acceptable limits. This helps to prevent after the fact responses to network application performance issues—preventing network downtime and helping to make informed planning decisions.
- EPM is another configuration tool that manages network bandwidth, prioritizes traffic streams and sets network access policies. It is often tied to VoIP technologies as it can ensure that voice calls receive the right QoS. It also provides security functionality as it can quickly roll out filters across devices in order to protect against viruses and worms. The next EPM release will include support for energy saver policies and will be able to facilitate the creation of policies across the network that will dim switches during off peak hours in order to save on energy consumption.
- Expansion on topic and describe how the solutions can be x-sold.
- These questions seem pretty straightforward, but let me explain why you need to ask them: Are you gonna use IPT: there is still a huge replacement going on from traditional (digital) voice to IP based solutions. Is your Netw, QoS enabled: This seems a pretty straightforward question but we have seen enough situations where the customer forgot to turn on QoS! Actually Avaya sold a huge IPT + LAN network to a major SI in EMEA, where during the project they complained about the quality of the voice solutions. It turned out that in their advanced next gen Avaya network, they forgot swithc on the QoS! This is really important to verify Is network stable: I guess every IT manager will tell you it is stable, they do not want to show their dirty laundry to an outsider. But if you ask this to the network administrator, the one that is being called in the middle of the night you may hear a different story. Please be aware that most networks outthere are BASED ON SPANNING TREE resiliency/redundancy solutions! This is key to understand that the reality of many enterprises is to live with a Spanning Tree network in 2010. And most administrators will confirm to you it is not that stable and causes major disruptions. This is what you definitely need to identify in the customer. (we have examples of customers facing bankrupcy because of STP based network outages.... Ask about performance; bring the value of stacking to the table. Non stackables cause bottlenecks. Cost savings are always important, we can prove we are cheaper than the market leader in capex and opex. We can even beat HP if needed.
- Avaya’s Unique Value Proposition How does Avaya uniquely address the most crucial requirements of the Enterprise? First, intelligent components and designs are at the heart of Avaya’s reputation for delivering the most distinguished resiliency model in the industry. Besides being fully scalable across the Enterprise, it has been 3 rd party tested to deliver up to 7 times better resiliency than the market share leader and provides uncompromising end-to-end availability for real-time applications such as IP Telephony. Second, providing dependability and performance only goes so far if the network is not efficient in its service delivery. An efficient network is a better performing network. Avaya’s network is designed with architectures that maximise all resources and investments, doing away with idle or under-utilised links, equipment, and even entire “architectural tiers” delivering up to 20X better performance and 1/3 less equipment. And, last but of course not least, a network that is deterministic and optimised also needs to have the embedded flexibility to seamlessly scale as business demands evolve and grow. Through genuine innovation Avaya provides Industry-leading solutions that maximise capacity utilization, easily accommodate incremental growth, and therefore avoid unnecessary and costly fork-lift upgrades In summary, while Avaya addresses each characteristic uniquely, the most impressive advantage is that Avaya excels at all three simultaneously. We’ll now talk at a high level how we intend to get the message out…
- I wanted to include this next slide for those of you that are not yet selling the Avaya Data portfolio. Here are a few benefits for our Avaya Data channel partners.
- In terms of the landscape, there are really 3 major competitors in this space, Cisco, HP and Juniper. Cisco offers a number of products that support their Stack Wise technology. There are 4 popular model variants that compete against the ERS 4000 and 5000 portfolios. HP offers a huge number of devices in this space; however, a couple of weeks ago they introduced the HP 3800 product which supports Meshed Stacking capabilities. It is a very strong offering in this space and will be in my opinion the strongest competition moving forward.. If HP can resolve some of the internal conflict that is occurring right now between heritage HP and heritage H3C. Juniper also competes in this space primarily with the EX4200. They have largely copied Avaya’s Stackable Chassis and Switch Clustering implementations to provide a resilient stackable solution. However, they have poor bandwidth capacity at the moment – although we believe they are working on a solution that will stack up to a Terabit. They also have an uncompetitive warranty and huge power consumption.
- In terms of where to attack Cisco, definitely attack their inefficient stacking capabilities and their in ability to offer customers the ability to scale capacity as they need it. In competitive situations with the ERS 5000 series products, you can attack the Cisco Catalyst 3750-X from a capacities and a densities perspective. Cisco tends to be very complex to operate and maintain. They have a confusing and expensive licensing model. Many of their features are proprietary. They are not as energy efficient as Avaya and they don’t have the evolution path that we can offer with future support for wireless split plane and the ability to support Virtualized Services. Cisco’s virtualization strategy is also proprietary and focused solely on the Data Center. In terms of areas where you have to defend, mindshare and market share are obviously the most significant hurdles, the feature breadth that Cisco can offer, in particular support for features such as full IPv6 routing capabilities and the warranty that they are able to offer. In terms of silver bullets – we offer 5x and 15x the virtual backplane capacity of Cisco with the ERS 4000 Series and 5000 Series respectively, we offer 25% better energy efficiency, a 50% reduction in TCO over a 5 year time period and with the ERS 5000 Series can offer a solution that is twice as dense with the availability of the only 96-port solution in the market. © 2009 Avaya Inc.

- In terms of where to attack them – energy is a great place to start. We can also show that this contributes to a higher Total cost of Ownership. We can attack their lack of an end to end solution and not having any experience in next generation applications such as voice and video. We can attack their warranty, their stacking capabilities and the fact that their implementation is relatively new and they don’t have 12-13 years of deployment experience to build upon. They offer an overlay wireless architecture without any integration and they do not offer any evolution path to supporting Virtualized Services at the Campus Edge. Their virtualization strategy is proprietary and focused solely on the Data Center. In terms of where to defend, Juniper often promotes the values of JunOS and having a single OS for all platforms. One way to defend against this is that having all features on all platforms can slow down performance. Some of Juniper platforms take a very long time to boot up due to the huge software load that needs to be supported. They support rich L3 capabilities including IPv6 and they do support good scalability for a number of their features. In terms of silver bullets – we offer 3x and 10x the virtual backplane capacity of Juniper with the ERS 4000 Series and 5000 Series respectively, we offer 50% better energy efficiency, a 50% reduction in TCO over a 5 year time period and with the ERS 5000 Series can offer a solution that is twice as dense with the availability of the only 96-port solution in the market. © 2009 Avaya Inc. All rights reserved.
- In terms of how to attack – the main area to attack is with regards to the acquisition and the internal politics that is occurring right now between heritage HP and heritage 3Com folks. Their products are not as energy efficient as ours. They do not have a solution that includes next generation applications similar to what we can offer with Avaya Aura and Avaya Flare. They have a confusing WLAN story without any integration into the switching network and no evolution path to extend Virtualized services beyond the Data Center. In terms of where to defend, they are the #2 vendor in the space so have the mindshare and market share. They offer compelling price points, a comprehensive lifetime warranty, rich L3 functionality and good scaling with the new 3800 product. In terms of silver bullets we offer 20% better energy efficiency than HP with the ERS 4000 series, we offer 3x the virtual backplane capacity of the HP 3800 with the ERS 5000 Series and with the ERS 5000 Series we can offer a solution that is twice as dense with the availability of the only 96-port solution in the market. © 2009 Avaya Inc.

- Starting first with Cisco. When the customer needs stacking they will generally lead with the Catalyst 3750-X or at the lower end the Cisco 2960. If a standalone offering is adequate you may see the 3760-X. We’ve included the 3750-E for completeness. You may see it in a few accounts, but it lacks 10 Gig SFP+ support and has less forwarding bandwidth than the 3750-X. The biggest knock against Cisco is their inefficient ring based bus architecture that they use for stacking. It only allows them to utilize 64 Gbps of total stack bandwidth. On the plus side, they have a wide breadth of features and they do have a very good lifetime warranty where they offer next business day delivery of replacement hardware for the life of the product and they offer software updates as part of the warranty as well. © 2009 Avaya Inc. All rights reserved.
- With Juniper they only have one product offering that supports Virtual Chassis capabilities and it’s the Juniper EX 4200. The obvious place to attack Juniper is the stack bandwidth capabilities. They only offer 128 Gbps compared to our 384 with the ERS 4000 Series and 1.152 Terabits with the ERS 5600. Power consumption is a huge issue for them, in our tests and in a separate Tolly test that HP commissioned Juniper utilized almost twice as much power than any other device in this space. They also have some weaknesses in their warranty in that power and fans – which tend to be high failure items are only covered for 5 years.. versus Avaya’s Lifetime coverage. They also only offer shipping of spares within one business – rather than next business day with Avaya. © 2009 Avaya Inc. All rights reserved.
- HP offers a number of platforms for this space; however, strategically we will likely see the 2910 in standalone scenarios and more and more the HP 3800 in stacking opportunities. This switch was introduced at the Fall Networld Interop event at the beginning of this month. Of all the devices in the market, this offering is the most comparable to Avaya’s. They have 9 model variants and they offer 2 additional 10 Gig SFP+ ports on their 48-port models compared to everyone else in the industry. They also offer a very compelling warranty with advanced replacements and next-business day delivery with free software updates. They do not however, have the solutions breadth that we do have do not have the evolution path to WLAN integration and future support for Virtualized Services. Their virtualization strategy is unclear and unfocused having announced support for both TRILL and SPB – it is also solely focused on the Data Center. © 2009 Avaya Inc. All rights reserved.
