5 Transformation of Avaya
WHERE WE ARE TODAY Implemented Business Unit Structure Implemented Operational Management System One Touch Supply Chain Transition Increased Investments in Process and Systems Launched Channel-Centric Go-to-Market Strategy Introduced Channel Enabled Services Strategy NOW WE GO THROUGH NEXT PHASE OF CONVERSATION – WHAT ARE WE DOING TO MAKE OURSELVES EASIER TO DO BUSINESS WITH, FASTER, MORE FLEXIBLE. THE GOAL HERE IS TO CONVINCE OUR CUSTOMERS THAT THEY CAN BET ON US – NOT ONLY WILL WE BE AROUND DUE TO OUR FINANCIAL HEALTH BUT WE ARE CONTINUING TO IMPROVE OUR ABILITY TO COMPETE AND MAKE OURSELVES EASIER TO DO BUS WITH? Take customer through some more detail of our operational efforts to make us easier to do business with, to reduce unnecessary waste and to make us flexible and nimble to be able to respond to the market more quickly. This is a three year transformational change process here at Avaya. Cultural change is the root of this – to create a culture focused on enabling the company to set the pace in the industry. To achieve this requires fundamental changes to our strategy, processes and culture. Cultural change is hard work and takes time … and we have laid out a three phase plan for our team to navigate through this process. Year 1 (2008) – Focused on new strategy and structure to enable execution … and begin the cultural change process. The underlying organization of Avaya was based on old go to market models, silo-ed and not conducive to internal collaboration … combined with a direct oriented go-to-market model. Year 2 (2009) – The system and process changes are foundational and start to take root. Currently rolling out new technologies to improve employee productivity and collaboration … while simplifying ease of doing business with our customers and partners. Effects of the BU begins to innovate in new ways. Portfolio consolidations and common underlying components to drive system simplification. Driving a focus on the business user to understand how communications technology enables these users to improve their productivity and ability to drive revenue for your businesses – this will start to show up later this year. This is where we focus on customer value. Reallocating $ for value creation activities. This is where you will start to see a stronger partner eco-system. Year 3 is when these underlying operational, system and process improvements start to take hold. You should see us start to be easier to do business with. Customer centricity will drive increased satisfaction and loyalty. Our channel should be firing on all cylinders. Innovations focused on the business user are in the market and adding value to customers. This is where we will execute better as a team…set the pace for Retooling the company and competing for #1! A three year transition with multiple changes within the business …. These changes have driven the need to make some changes in leadership so we could accelerate our cultural and process change. The transformation doesn’t end at 3 years. This is a long term process and cultural change. 5 © 2009 Avaya Inc. All rights reserved. 5

28 Continuing aggressive investment in the Portfolio
The Markets We Serve Ethernet Switching Wireless Networking Unified Branch Access Control Unified Management Branch & Remote Enterprise Campus Serving Our Market Avaya’s unique product and value offering allows Avaya the ability to serve the entire Enterprise market from campus to data centre to branch. Avaya’s data networking portfolio is grouped into five broad areas: Ethernet Switching – a range of Modular & Stackable Chassis LAN Switches for Data centre, Core, Edge, and Branch applications Wireless Networking – a complete solution enabling Enterprises to deploy Wireless coverage with a secure, cost-effective and highly scalable infrastructure Unified Branch – a range of Routers and VPN Appliances that provide secure remote connectivity and application support for Branches and individuals Access Control – solutions that integrate with current network infrastructures to provide the central policy decision to enforce role-based Access Control to the network Unified Management – providing support for data and voice networks as well as heterogeneous network infrastructures, simplifying the requirements associated with managing faults, configuration, accounting, performance and security A key element of our portfolio is the ability of our products and solutions to scale across the Enterprise – delivering a consistent set of services to the business regardless of “size” or “geography”. We’ll now take a high level tour of each of the portfolio areas… Data Center Continuing aggressive investment in the Portfolio

29 Avaya’s Unique Value Proposition
Dependable Intelligent components & designs, powerful networking that can be fully trusted to deliver Up to 7X better resiliency 100% Call Completion even during failure scenarios Efficient Improving the effectiveness of a business by creating a simpler & more effective network 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 3rd 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 is one that delivers superior value for the investment. Avaya offers industry-leading energy-efficiency that spans the entire portfolio – from Data Center to Desktop -- delivering immediate reduction in utility charges related to direct power consumption and indirect cooling. That combined with the total cost of ownership advantage by virtue of highly-competitive product and maintenance pricing as well as operational efficiencies delivers superior value to the business. In summary, while Avaya addresses each characteristic uniquely, the most impressive advantage is that Avaya excels at all three simultaneously. Let look a little deeper how Avaya delivers on these three imperatives… Up to 20X better performance Pioneered best-practice design, saving 1/3 equipment Cost Effective Networking that is deterministic & optimized, and one that delivers superior value for money Up to 50% better TCO Up to 40% more energy-efficient 29

30 3,000 User Campus LAN Cost Comparison
The Bottom Line 5-Year cost comparison of Avaya & Cisco Systems provides telling results Cisco premium can be over 100% Up-front CAPEX is the largest cost comparison component Maintenance and support is not insignificant Power consumption is becoming a consideration And Now for The Bottom Line Avaya commissioned independent research to determine the extent of our cost-effective value proposition; covering a series of Campus LAN and Branch Office WAN scenarios, ranging from small through to large. The results are stark: taking into consideration the costs typically associated with deploying and operating a network (including purchasing, maintenance, and operations) Avaya consistently delivers exceptional value when compared side-by-side to our main rival. The Avaya advantage ranges from 43% for a large Campus LAN (and 37% for a mid-sized LAN) to 50% for a Branch Office WAN environment. Further savings will also be realised by virtue of Avaya’s proven energy-efficiency advantage which has been measured at up to 40% across the full range of products and devices, from Data Center through to Desktop. 3,000 User Campus LAN Cost Comparison 30

31 Ethernet Switching Highlights High performance resiliency
Pioneering Switch Cluster high-availability solution 2nd largest Core installed- based 1st & only to break through the Terabit Stackable boundary True end-to-end high- availability solution Recently refreshed portfolio Modular Chassis Core Ethernet Switching Avaya’s Ethernet Switching product line provides complete coverage, ranging from entry-level Branch Office, to high-performance Wiring closet and Data Center Server aggregation, through to Network Core applications. The range has been progressively refreshed with new hardware options and software functionality constantly developed; most recently we’ve supplemented with the ERS 5600 models that deliver the Industry’s first and only Terabit-capable Stacking solution. As mentioned earlier, a key feature is “Switch Clustering”, the capability pioneered by Avaya to virtualise the network Core and provide our unique combination of sub-second high availability with optimised performance. Despite attempts by our rivals to imitate, we continue to enjoy clear leadership due to a wealth of experience (hard-earned over the last 6 or 7 years) and our ability to cost-effectively deploy resilient solutions for small, medium and large network sizes. Complementing this is our Industry-leading range of advanced “Stackable Chassis” fixed-format Switches: delivering all of the advantages typically associated with a Modular Chassis Switch, but without the high price. Further background: Avaya’s ‘Switch Clustering’ capability is built using technology that is unique to our products (Split Multi-Link Trunking), yet it is fully interoperable with 3rd Party Switches, Servers, Appliances, and Routers. What this delivers is a series of benefits that are genuinely differentiated; whilst it may be possible to simulate certain individual elements, there is no competitive offering that can rival the combined capabilities, particularly in terms of simplicity and efficiency. Delivers end-to-end application availability Non-proprietary solution that extends beyond Switches to Servers, etc. This means that the high-availability is not limited to only the Switching network (the Switches themselves and their direct links), but to the total network; importantly also extended to attached Servers, Appliances, and WAN Routers, etc. All competing offers are based on interaction within the Switch domain, and crucially do not extend to the application hosts themselves. Technically-speaking: almost every other rival offering is based around variations of the Spanning Tree Protocol; however this is limited to the actual Switches and is not supported by other devices (Servers, etc). By excluding Servers from the active resiliency technology, these solutions cannot extend availability to the applications themselves. Avaya’s Switch Clustering is independent of STP and extends to support any device that utilises Link Aggregation, a technology that is both basic and ubiquitous. Devices that attach to the Switch Cluster create a virtual connection using multiple physical links, this provides resiliency together with additional capacity. Solutions that scale Enterprise-wide Cost-effective solutions for every network size; Not limited to top-of-the-range product Business processes that demand high-availability are typically also deployed company-wide; therefore it is imperative to deliver consistent levels of resiliency across the entire network. Avaya is uniquely positioned in being able to offer the same capability, built using the same technology, in a broad range of platforms that scale in both price and performance matching various requirements across the network. This enables the consistent delivery of a network that is itself consistently delivering end-to-end application availability, regardless of location or size. Technically-speaking: Avaya’s Switch Clustering to built on the basis of the Split Multi-Link Trunking protocol, and with only minor implementation variations it is a available on four different product families: ERS 1600 Series fixed-format standalone Switches, ERS 5000 Series fixed-format Stackable Switches, ERS 8300 mid-tier Modular Switch, and ERS 8600 premium Modular Switch. The only technology to rival Switch Clustering (Cisco’s Virtual Switching System, which is a direct copy of the underlying philosophy) is only available on the top-of-the-range version of the top-of-the-range Modular Switch, making it economically unfeasible to deploy network-wide. Simplified solution; hardware, software, configuration, & maintenance A capability that is not easily replicated, that is simple to deploy, & does not require complex and/or expensive products The various capabilities and benefits that Switch Clustering provides are delivered without complexity, without the need for expensive hardware or software, and without the need for complex configuration or on-going maintenance. This ensures that the business benefits are not ‘purchased at any price’; indeed Switch Clustering uniquely combines both simplicity with cost-effectiveness. While some of the individual capabilities can be simulated using other techniques and/or a myriad of additional products, this approach only adds cost and complexity. Technically-speaking: just one example, Switch Clustering delivers User pre-session load-sharing access all Uplinks from the Access Switch to the Core; this capability is automatically enabled without the need for any additional hardware, software, or configuration. To attempt to replicate this level of capability in a STP-based network, it would need to have multiple VLANs with MSTP/RSTP configured, a Layer 3-enabled Switch with Routing and ECMP configured, any even then this solution would be limited to pre-VLAN load-sharing only (not pre-session). Sub-second failover & recovery Delivers the necessary availability plus facilitates in-service maintenance and optimised performance Switch Clustering is probably best known for delivering sub-second failover and recovery, and whilst this remains an extremely important and valid feature it’s not necessarily a feature that is unique to us. What Avaya continues to deliver in this area is a degree of network recovery which also facilitates in-service maintenance. The deterministic nature of Switch Clustering empowers network operators to compartmentalise the network, making essential services even more resilient, and allowing for individual failures to be repaired in real time, without service restoration work impacting on collateral components or applications. Technically-speaking: enhancements to STP – namely Rapid Reconfiguration – can be aggressively configured to deliver similar levels of failover performance. However all flavours of STP remain tied to the concept of detecting and acting upon changes to the network topology. This makes a network extremely sensitive to the reliability and availability of particular devices (Root Bridges, etc). Avaya’s Switch Clustering is built around the concept of mirrored devices and virtualised capabilities, such that an entire Switch can be removed (through failure, or for emergence or routine maintenance) without any loss of overall application availability. Stackable Ethernet Switches have become increasingly popular in the Wiring Closet, and are often selected in preference to Chassis-based alternatives. Price will often have a significant influence on decisions, especially when the multiplying factor of numerous Closets translates into the potential for a very large delta. However not all ‘Stackable Switches’ are created equal. Not all provide a genuine alternative option to the Chassis, and not all deliver the performance, resiliency, and ease of operations crucial in an Enterprise environment; some are not even truly Stackable. Avaya’s portfolio of Stackable Switches is the result of the progressive evolution of a number of historically innovative products. A common thread that links the portfolio is a truly resilient, high-performance Stacking architecture – Flexible Advanced Stacking Technology (FAST) – this is what makes Avaya genuinely unique, and genuinely different to competitive offerings. Virtual hot-swap capability Enables in-service maintenance & restoration This crucial serviceability and operability feature ensures that any unit failure can be quickly and easily rectified. It is a hot-swap capability pioneered in Modular Switches, and now also available on Avaya’s Stackable Switches, made possible by virtue of intelligent virtualisation of the Stacking connections. Enabling immediate like-for-like unit replacement without impacting the remaining Stack functionality and traffic, and without complex engineering intervention empowers Operators to deploy our Stackable solutions just as they would a Chassis. Technically-speaking: When a failure occurs the neighbouring Switches will automatically wrap their Stack connections ensuring that collateral Users are not impacted. The failed unit is simply disconnected from the Stack and a like unit – without any pre-staging of software or configuration – can be inserted, cabled, and powered-up. The Automatic Unit Replacement (AUR) process then self-manages any necessary downloads to the new Switch and then brings it online; all of this without the need for an Engineer to configure or manage a thing. No single point-of-failure Distributed power and forwarding With a Chassis solution this has meant N+1 Power Supplies and even redundant Switching Fabrics. With our Stackables it is much the same but without the cost penalty: each unit has an independent Switching Fabric, and as each ‘Switching Module’ has an independent power supply it means that there is no one single point-of-failure. Adding a Redundant Power option further enhances the overall resiliency of the solution. Any individual element failure is equivalent to the failure of a single Module within a Chassis. Technically-speaking: Frame Forwarding decisions are distributed across each independent Switching Fabric. When a frame forwarding decision results in the need to forward the frame to another Switch in the Stack, the Stack forwarding algorithm determines whether the frame will traverse the up or down Stack link, or possibly both. More general Stack management functions are performed by a ‘Base Unit’ (BU), which selected as part of initialising the Stack. Once normal operations have been established, if the BU (Unit 1) fails or is rebooted, the next Switch (Unit 2) will take over as Temporary BU (TBU) and remain as such until either it is reset or the entire Stack is reset. If only Unit 2, as TBU, fails or is reset (but entire Stack is not reset), then the TBU status will transfer to the Unit 3, the next downstream unit in the cascade. High-capacity virtual backplane Industry-leading, pay-as-you-grow scalable capacity With a Chassis solution it’s been a given that performance comes as a natural function of design and price. With our Stackables we’ve been able to combine non-blocking internal switching fabrics with high-speed stacking architectures to deliver a truly high performance solution. The Avaya FAST architecture is not bound by the limitations and constraints facing other Vendors (such as Token Sharing/Passing systems, or basic Cascading), and has been specifically designed to scale proportionally as new member Switches are added to the Stack; as more ports are added and the requirement for more bandwidth grows. Technically-speaking: A Di-Directional Shortest-Path Traffic Forwarding capability is at the heart of our resilient Stacking architecture, ensuring that the shortest, most optimal forwarding path is selectively chosen for each unique data flow. There is none of the unwieldy logical Ring or Token technology that Competitors use, but a star-based distributed forwarding topology that allows traffic to flow either ‘upstream’ or ‘downstream’ simultaneously from every Switch in the Stack, optimising both performance and resiliency. The various implementations of FAST scale capacity according to the market positioning of the different product lines. Ranging from 4Gbps per Switch and up to 32Gbps per Stack for the entry-level ERS 2500 Series, and on up to 144Gbps / 1.152Tbps for the premium ERS 5600 Series. Avaya delivers Industry-leading Stacking capacity in all market segments. Simplified implementation & management Automatic software & configuration control, and centralised management With a Chassis solution it is simply a case of adding a new Module, adding configuration, and connecting devices. With our Stackables it is much the same: simply cable-in a new Stack member, extend the appropriate configuration – the Stack is managed as a single network entity. Technically-speaking: The Automatic Unit Replacement (AUR) feature is the process that delivers the Agent Image software, the Configuration file, and the Diagnostic Image software to any additional or replacement Switch; it self-manages any necessary downloads to the new Switches and then brings it online. The entire Stack operates, appears, and is managed as a single network entity, with specific Stack IP and MAC Addresses. Access Stackable Chassis 31
