• The actual time-to-live value used in LLDP frames can be expressed by the following formula: TTL =
min(65535, LLDP-Timer * LLDP-HoldMultiplier). For example, if the value of LLDP timer is '30', and
the value of the LLDP hold multiplier is '4', then the value '120' is encoded in the TTL field in the
LLDP header.
