able to use the following network policy elements configured on the

client port
• v oice VLAN ID
• 802.1p (Layer 2) QoS
• Diffserv codepoint (DSCP) (Layer 3) QoS
discover and advertise device location data learned from the switch

support emergency call service (ECS—such as E911, 999, and 112)
■
advertise device information for the device data inventory collected

by the switch, including:
• hardware revision
• firmware revision
• software revision
provide information on network connectivity capabilities (for
■
example, a multi-port VoIP phone with Layer 2 switch capability)
support the fast start capability

LLDP-MED on the switches covered in this guide is intended for use with VoIP
endpoints, and is not designed to support links between network
infrastructure devices, such as switch-to-switch or switch-to-router links.
LLDP-MED Endpoint Device Classes. LLDP-MED endpoint devices are,
by definition, located at the network edge and communicate using the LLDP­
MED framework. Any LLDP-MED endpoint device belongs to one of the
following three classes:
Class 1 (Generic Endpoint Devices): These devices offer the basic
■
LLDP discovery services, network policy advertisement (VLAN ID,
Layer 2/802.1p priority, and Layer 3/DSCP priority), and PoE manage­
ment. This class includes such devices as IP call controllers and
communication-related servers.
Class 2 (Media Endpoint Devices): These devices offer all Class 1
■
features plus media streaming capability, and include such devices as
voice/media gateways, conference bridges, and media servers.
