Step
4.
Set the token bucket size for
sending LLDP frames.
5.
Set the LLDP frame
transmission delay.
6.
Set the number of LLDP frames
sent each time fast LLDP frame
transmission is triggered.
7.
Set an interval for fast LLDP
frame transmission.

Setting an encapsulation format for LLDP frames

LLDP frames can be encapsulated in the following formats:
Ethernet II—With Ethernet II encapsulation configured, an LLDP port sends LLDP frames in Ethernet
II frames.
SNAP—With SNAP encapsulation configured, an LLDP port sends LLDP frames in SNAP frames.
LLDP of earlier versions requires the same encapsulation format on both ends to process LLDP frames. To
communicate stably with a neighboring device running LLDP of earlier versions, the local device should
be configured with the same encapsulation format.
To set the encapsulation format for LLDP frames to SNAP:
Step
1.
Enter system view.
2.
Enter Layer 2/Layer 3
Ethernet interface view,
management Ethernet
interface view, or Layer
2/Layer 3 aggregate
interface view.
3.
Set the encapsulation
format for LLDP frames to
SNAP.

Configuring CDP compatibility

To make your device work with Cisco IP phones, you must enable CDP compatibility.
CDP compatibility enables your device to receive and recognize CDP packets from a directly-connected
device and send CDP packets to a directly-connected device. The packets that the switch sends to the
neighboring CDP device carry the following elements:
Command
lldp max-credit credit-value
lldp timer tx-delay delay
lldp fast-count count
lldp timer fast-interval interval
Command
system-view
interface interface-type interface-number
In Layer 2, Layer 3, or management
Ethernet interface view:
lldp [ agent { nearest-customer |
nearest-nontpmr } ] encapsulation snap
In Layer 2 or Layer 3 aggregate interface
view:
lldp agent { nearest-customer |
nearest-nontpmr } encapsulation snap
