7.9 LLDP

Use the LLDP sub-menu to share information about the main capabilities of the switch with adjacent devices over the link layer. LLDP (Link Layer
Discovery Protocol) is an 802.1ab standard that enables devices to exchange information such as management address, identity and how they
connect to their neighbors. This information is stored in each device's MIB and can be accessed and collated by a centrally located network man-
agement system for presentation as a topology.

Parameter description
Tx Interval:

Use this field to configure how often this switch transmits LLDP frames to its neighbors. Valid values are from 5 to 32768 seconds.
Tx Hold:

Use this field to configure the Time-To-Live (TTL) field in LLDP frames transmitted by this switch. The TTL determines how long the recipi-
ent considers the information it receives as valid. The TTL is Tx Hold multiplied by Tx Interval seconds. Valid values are from 2 to 10 times.
Tx Delay:

Use this field to configure the minimum time this switch waits to inform neighbors of a configuration change. Valid values are from 1 to 8192
seconds but Tx Delay cannot be longer than 1/4 of Tx Interval.
