Lldpdu Transmitted By Sip Deskphones - Avaya 9608 Administrator's Manual

Administering Telephone Options
The transmission and reception of LLDP is specified in IEEE 802.1AB-2005. The 9600 Series
IP Telephones use Type-Length-Value (TLV) elements specified in IEEE 802.1AB-2005, TIA
TR-41 Committee - Media Endpoint Discovery (LLDP-MED, ANSI/TIA-1057), and Proprietary
elements. LLDP Data Units (LLDPDUs) are sent to the LLDP Multicast MAC address
(01:80:c2:00:00:0e).
9600 Series IP Telephones running SIP Release 2.0 and later software support IEEE 802.1AB if
the value of the configuration parameter LLDP_ENABLED is "1" (On) or "2" (Auto). If the value
of LLDP_ENABLED is "0" (off), the transmission and reception of Link Layer Discovery Protocol
(LLDP) is not supported. When the value of LLDP_ENABLED is "2", the transmission of LLDP
frames will not begin until or unless an LLDP frame is received, and the first LLDP frame will be
transmitted within 2 seconds after the first LLDP frame is received. Once transmission begins,
an LLDPDU will be transmitted every 30 seconds.
Note:
There could be a delay of up to 30 seconds in deskphone initialization if the file
Note:
server address is delivered by LLDP and not by DHCP.
These deskphones:
do not support LLDP on the secondary Ethernet interface.
●
will not forward frames received with the 802.1AB LLDP group multicast address as the
●
destination MAC address between the Ethernet line interface and the secondary Ethernet
interface.
A 9600 Series IP Telephone initiates LLDP after receiving an LLDPDU message from an
appropriate system. Once initiated, the deskphones send an LLDPDU every 30 seconds with
the contents described in
