The switch automatically advertises the policy according to your configuration;
however, you must also manually configure the switch to use that policy.

Setting LLDP MED Network Policy

An LLDP-MED network policy is a related set of configuration settings identified
by a network policy number. This set is loaded into an LLDP-MED TLV, and sent to
devices connected to the switch. This information is used by the connected
device to send traffic, as specified in the network policy. For example, a policy can
be created for VoIP phones that instructs them to:
• Send voice traffic on VLAN 10
• Tag voice traffic with DSCP=63
• Transmit data-traffic to the switch (from the PC connected to the switch
through the VoIP phone) without modification to traffic sent by the PC
(typically, Untagged).
Network policies are associated with ports by using the LLDP MED Port Settings
Page. (An administrator must create the VLANs, and configure memberships in the
VLANs based on the specification in the LLDP-MED network policies.)
