capable Network Connectivity Device start to advertise LLDP-MED TLVs in outgoing
LLDPDUs on the associated port. The LLDP-MED application will temporarily speed up
the transmission of the LLDPDU to start within a second, when a new LLDP-MED
neighbour has been detected in order share LLDP-MED information as fast as possible to
new neighbours.
Because there is a risk of an LLDP frame being lost during transmission between
neighbours, it is recommended to repeat the fast start transmission multiple times to
increase the possibility of the neighbours receiving the LLDP frame. With Fast start
repeat count it is possible to specify the number of times the fast start transmission would
be repeated. The recommended value is 4 times, given that 4 LLDP frames with a 1
second interval will be transmitted, when an LLDP frame with new information is received.
It should be noted that LLDP-MED and the LLDP-MED Fast Start mechanism is only
intended to run on links between LLDP-MED Network Connectivity Devices and Endpoint
Devices, and as such does not apply to links between LAN infrastructure elements,
including Network Connectivity Devices, or other types of links.

Any LLDP-MED Device is operating as a specific type of LLDP-MED Device, which
may be either a Network Connectivity Device or a specific Class of Endpoint Device, as
defined below.
A Network Connectivity Device is a LLDP-MED Device that provides access to the
IEEE 802 based LAN infrastructure for LLDP-MED Endpoint Devices
An LLDP-MED Network Connectivity Device is a LAN access device based on any of
the following technologies :
1. LAN Switch/Router
2. IEEE 802.1 Bridge
3. IEEE 802.3 Repeater (included for historical reasons)
