LLDP and LLDP-MED Support

Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) and Link Layer Discovery Protocol Media Endpoint Discovery
(LLDP-MED) are supported on RealPresence Group Series systems. LLDP is a vendor-neutral link layer
protocol in the Internet Protocol Suite used by network devices to advertise their identity and capabilities
on an IEEE 802 local area network (LAN). This protocol runs over the data-link layer only, allowing
connected systems running different network layer protocols to discover information about each other.
LLDP-MED is an extension of LLDP.
Examples of applications that use information discovered by LLDP include:
• Network topology - A network management system (NMS) can accurately represent a map of the
network topology.
• Inventory - A management system can query a switch to learn about all the devices connected to
that switch. The LLDP protocol is formally specified in standards document IEEE 802.1AB.
