Avaya G250 Manual Do Utilizador

This chapter describes the Policy Based Routing function in Avaya G250/G350/G450 Manager 
and how to use it to add, modify, and delete policies and rules. It includes the following sections: 

●

 - An overview of the different views in Avaya G250/G350/

G450 Policy Based Routing.

●

 - A detailed description of the Tree View including how to navigate 

between the different levels of the tree.

●

 - A detailed description of the Table View including a description of 

the table fields, instructions on adding, modifying, and deleting policies and rules, and a 
description of the different tabs and options.

●

 - A description of address wildcards, and instructions on how to 

use them in Avaya G250/G350/G450 Policy Based Routing.

●

 - A description of the IP Simulate function, and instructions 

on activating and using the IP Simulate function to simulate the effect of rules on 
information packets.

Policy Based Routing allows implementation of routing policies that selectively cause packets to 
take different paths. For example, in cases where the Avaya G250/G350/G450 Device has two 
WAN interfaces - Serial and xDSL - you can specify that voice packets be sent over the Serial 
link, and data packets over xDSL. Thus, it is only the voice packets, which require high QoS, 
that are sent over the more expensive Serial link.

Avaya Policy Based Routing has two main views. These views provide you with information 
about the network, and enable you to manage policies and rules. 

Avaya Policy Based Routing’s two main views are: 

●

The Tree View - Provides a hierarchical view of the device types in the network, the IP 
addresses of the devices in the network, the modules in the devices, and the existing 
policies. Refer to 

●

The Table View - Provides information about the contents of the elements in the Tree 
View. You can add, modify, and delete policies, composite actions, and rules in the Table 
View. Refer to
