Configuring the Switch
Command Attributes
• LLDP – Enables LLDP globally on the switch. (Default: Enabled)
• Transmission Interval – Configures the periodic transmit interval for LLDP
advertisements. (Range: 5-32768 seconds; Default: 30 seconds)
This attribute must comply with the following rule:
(transmission-interval * holdtime-multiplier) ≤ 65536
• Hold Time Multiplier – Configures the time-to-live (TTL) value sent in LLDP
advertisements as shown in the formula below. (Range: 2-10; Default: 4)
The time-to-live tells the receiving LLDP agent how long to retain all information
pertaining to the sending LLDP agent if it does not transmit updates in a timely
manner. TTL in seconds is based on (refresh-interval * holdtime-multiplier) ≤
65536
Therefore, the default TTL is 4*30 = 120 seconds.
• Delay Interval – Configures a delay between the successive transmission of
advertisements initiated by a change in local LLDP MIB variables.
(Range: 1-8192 seconds; Default: 2 seconds)
The transmit delay is used to prevent a series of successive LLDP transmissions
during a short period of rapid changes in local LLDP MIB objects, and to increase
the probability that multiple, rather than single changes, are reported in each
transmission.
This attribute must comply with the rule: (4 * delay-interval) ≤ transmission-interval
• Reinitialization Delay – Configures the delay before attempting to re-initialize
after LLDP ports are disabled or the link goes down. (Range: 1-10 seconds;
Default: 2 seconds)
When LLDP is re-initialized on a port, all information in the remote systems LLDP
MIB associated with this port is deleted.
• Notification Interval – Configures the allowed interval for sending SNMP
notifications about LLDP MIB changes. (Range: 5-3600 seconds; Default: 5
seconds)
This parameter only applies to SNMP applications which use data stored in the
LLDP MIB for network monitoring or management.
Information about changes in LLDP neighbors that occur between SNMP
notifications is not transmitted. Only state changes that exist at the time of a
notification are included in the transmission. An SNMP agent should therefore
periodically check the value of lldpStatsRemTableLastChangeTime to detect any
lldpRemTablesChange notification-events missed due to throttling or transmission
loss.
• MED Fast Start Count – Configures the amount of LLDP MED Fast Start
LLDPDUs to transmit during the activation process of the LLDP-MED Fast Start
mechanisim. (Range: 1-10 packets; Default: 4 packets)
The MED Fast Start Count parameter is part of the timer which ensures that the
LLDP-MED Fast Start mechanism is active for the port. LLDP-MED Fast Start is
3-184
