  • Page 199: Management Overview

    Ceragon offers the NetMaster network management system (NMS), which provides centralized operation and maintenance capability for the complete range of network elements in an IP-20G system. IP-20G and other Ceragon network elements can also be managed via Ceragon’s PolyView NMS. To facilitate automated network topology discovery via NMS, IP-20G supports the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP).
  • Page 200: Automatic Network Topology Discovery With Lldp Protocol

    Automatic Network Topology Discovery with LLDP Protocol FibeAir IP-20G supports the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP), a vendor- neutral layer 2 protocol that can be used by a station attached to a specific LAN segment to advertise its identity and capabilities and to receive identity and capacity information from physically adjacent layer 2 peers.
