or not these functions are enabled in the switch. The capabilities are
indicated by two octets. Bits 0 through 7 indicate Other, Repeater,
Bridge, WLAN AP, Router, Telephone, DOCSIS cable device, and
station respectively. Bits 8 through 15 are reserved.

which case only mandatory TLVs are used. These are: Chassis subtype
(MAC address), Port subtype (port number), and TTL (time-to-leave).

MED Network Policy

A network policy instructs the connected media endpoint devices as to how to
send traffic, for example, a policy can be created for VoIP phones that
instructs them to:
• Send voice traffic on VLAN 10
• Tag voice traffic with DSCP=63
• Transmit data-traffic to the switch (from the PC connected to the switch
through the VoIP phone) without modification to traffic sent by the PC
(typically, Untagged).
For network policies to be implemented, they must be created and then
associated with ports.
Before policies are defined, the administrator must create the VLANs, and
configure memberships in the VLANs, based on the specification in the
LLDP-MED network policies.
To add a MED network policy:
1 Click Network Administration > Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP)
> MED Network Policy.
Previously-defined network policies are displayed.
