Configuring Audio Video Bridges

Chalet allows you to enable or disable the Audio Video Bridging (AVB) feature to the switch and all ports, and is the equivalent of issuing commands enable avb and enable avb ports [port_list | all] (and their equivalent disable commands). Transmitter and receiver devices must be set up before enabling AVB.

Note

Note

AVB is only supported on a few Summit platforms. For more information, refer to the Using AVB with Extreme Switches guide and the "AVB" section of the ExtremeXOS User Guide.

To enable AVB from Chalet, your switch must be AVB-capable and you must have an existing license. Follow the instructions below to enter the license key and configure the feature.

  1. Select Configure > Audio Video Bridging.
    Click to expand in new window
  2. Enter the AVB license key and click Apply.
    Chalet pushes the license information the switch. Once complete, the page refreshes and displays a list of ports.

    Note

    If you see next to a port, AVB is not functioning on that port. A receiver and transmitter must be properly set up for AVB to function.
  3. Click the Advanced tab to see enable/disable information for gPTP, MSRP, and MVRP.
