Protocols And Standards; Recommended Lldp Configuration Procedure - HP 1920 Series User Manual

•
•
This is the fast sending mechanism of LLDP. With this mechanism, the specified number of LLDP frames is
sent successively at the 1-second interval. The mechanism helps LLDP neighbors discover the local device
as soon as possible. Then, the normal LLDP frame transmission interval resumes.
Receiving LLDP frames
An LLDP-enabled port operating in TxRx mode or Rx mode confirms the validity of TLVs carried in every
received LLDP frame. If the TLVs are valid, the information is saved and an aging timer is set. When the
TTL value in the Time to Live TLV carried in the LLDP frame becomes zero, the information ages out
immediately.

Recommended LLDP configuration procedure

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com
A new neighbor is discovered. A new LLDP frame is received carrying device information new to the
local device.
The LLDP operating mode of the port changes from Disable or Rx to TxRx or Tx.

Step
1. Enabling LLDP on ports.
2. Setting LLDP parameters
on ports.
3. Configuring LLDP
globally.
4. Displaying LLDP
information for a port.

Remarks
Optional.
By default, LLDP is enabled on ports.
Make sure LLDP is also enabled globally, because LLDP can work on a port
only when it is enabled both globally and on the port.
Optional.
LLDP settings include LLDP operating mode, packet encapsulation, CDP
compatibility, device information polling, trapping, and advertisable TLVs.
By default:
•
The LLDP operating mode is TxRx.
•
The encapsulation format is Ethernet II.
•
CDP compatibility is disabled.
•
Device information polling and trapping are disabled.
•
All TLVs except the Location Identification TLV are advertised.
Required.
By default, global LLDP is disabled.
To enable LLDP to work on a port, enable LLDP both globally and on the port.
Optional.
You can display the local LLDP information, neighbor information, statistics,
and status information of a port, where:
•
The local LLDP information refers to the TLVs to be advertised by the local
device to neighbors.
•
The neighbor information refers to the TLVs received from neighbors.
