Description
Rapid startup and Emergency Call Service Location Identification Discovery of endpoints
is a critically important aspect of VoIP systems in general. In addition, it is best to advertise
only those pieces of information which are specifically relevant to particular endpoint types
(for example only advertise the voice network policy to permitted voice-capable devices),
both in order to conserve the limited LLDPU space and to reduce security and system
integrity issues that can come with inappropriate knowledge of the network policy.
With this in mind LLDP-MED defines an LLDP-MED Fast Start interaction between the
protocol and the application layers on top of the protocol, in order to achieve these related
properties. Initially, a Network Connectivity Device will only transmit LLDP TLVs in an
LLDPDU. Only after an LLDP-MED Endpoint Device is detected, will an LLDP-MED
