Enabling Lldp Polling; Configuring The Advertisable Tlvs; Configuring The Management Address And Its Encoding Format - HP A3100-8 v2 SI Configuration Manual

Enabling LLDP polling

With LLDP polling enabled, a device searches for local configuration changes periodically. Upon
detecting a configuration change, the device sends LLDPDUs to inform the neighboring devices of the
change.
Follow these steps to enable LLDP polling:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter Ethernet
interface view
or port group
view
Enable LLDP polling and set the polling
interval

Configuring the advertisable TLVs

Follow these steps to configure the advertisable LLDPDU TLVs on the specified port or ports:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter
Ethernet
interface
view or
port group

Configure the advertisable TLVs

Configuring the management address and its encoding format

LLDP encodes management addresses in numeric or character string format in management address
TLVs.
By default, management addresses are encoded in numeric format. If a neighbor encoded its
management address in character string format, you must configure the encoding format of the
management address as string on the connecting port to guarantee normal communication with the
neighbor.
