Quidway S3500 Series Ethernet Switches
Description
Using ntdp explore command, you can start topology information collection when you
wants to collect network topology information. NTDP will collect the NDP information of
every device and all of their neighboring connections in the specified network scope.
The administrator device or network management system will learn the network
topology according to the information to manage and monitor the devices.
Example
# Start the topology collection.
<Quidway> ntdp explore

Parameter
hop-value: Indicate the maximum hops that the device collected can be away from the
topology collecting device, ranging from 1 to 16. By default, the value is 3.
Description
Using ntdp hop command, you can configure a limit to the hops for topology collection
to collect the topology information of the devices among determined range, so that
infinitive collection can be avoided. Using undo ntdp hop command, you can restore
the default value. The limit is performed through controlling permitted hops from the
originating of collection. For example, if you set a limit of 2 to the hop number, only the
switches 2 hops away from the first switch transmitting the topology collection request
will be collected.
This command is only effective on the topology-collecting device. The broader
collection scope requires more memory of the topology-collecting device.
Example
# Set a limit of 5 hops for topology collection.
[Quidway] ntdp hop 5
