LLDP

The Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) allows network managers to troubleshoot and
enhance network management by discovering and maintaining network topologies over multi-
vendor environments. LLDP discovers network neighbors by standardizing methods for network
devices to advertise themselves to other system, and to store discovered information. Device
discovery information includes:
• Device Identification
• Device Capabilities
• Device Configuration
The advertising device transmits multiple advertisement message sets in a single LAN packet. The
multiple advertisement sets are sent in the packet Type Length Value (TLV) field. LLDP devices
must support chassis and port ID advertisement, as well as system name, system ID, system
description, and system capability advertisements.
The LLDP menu enables configuration of LLDP parameters and contains the following options:
• "Basic"
• "Advanced"
