G8264CS Application Guide for ENOS 8.4
LLDP on the G8264CS has the following features.
When the LLDP receive option is enabled on a port (see "Enabling or Disabling
LLDP" on page 539), the port may receive the following information from
LLDP‐capable remote systems:
 Chassis Information
 Port Information
 LLDP Time‐to‐Live
 Port Description
 System Name
 System Description
System Capabilities Supported/Enabled

 Remote Management Address
The G8264CS stores the collected LLDP information in the MIB. Each remote
LLDP‐capable device is responsible for transmitting regular LLDP updates. If the
received updates contain LLDP information changes (to port state, configuration,
LLDP MIB structures, deletion), the switch will set a change flag within the MIB for
convenient notification to SNMP‐based management systems.
LLDP information collected from neighboring systems can be viewed in numerous
ways:
 Using a centrally‐connected LLDP analysis server
 Using an SNMP agent to examine the G8264CS MIB
 Using the G8264CS Browser‐Based Interface (BBI)
Using commands on the G8264CS

The following command displays remote LLDP information:
RS 8264CS(config)# show lldp remote-device [<index number>]
To view a summary of remote information, omit the Index number parameter. For
example:
RS 8264CS(config)# show lldp remote-device
