LLDP Basic TLVs Settings

TLV stands for Type-length-value, which allows the specific sending information as a TLV element within LLDP
packets. This window is used to enable the settings for the Basic TLVs Settings. An active LLDP port on the Switch
always included mandatory data in its outbound advertisements. There are four optional data types that can be
configured for an individual port or group of ports to exclude one or more of these data types from outbound LLDP
advertisements. The mandatory data type includes four basic types of information (end of LLDPDU TLV, chassis ID
TLV, port ID TLV, and Time to Live TLV). The mandatory data types cannot be disabled. There are also four data
types which can be optionally selected. These include Port Description, System Name, System Description and
System Capability.
