Displaying LLDP-MED Neighbor Information

Use the LLDP-MED Neighbor Information page (click Monitor, LLDP, LLDP-MED Neighbors) to display
information about a remote device connected to a port on this switch which is advertising LLDP-MED TLVs,
including network connectivity device, endpoint device, capabilities, application type, and policy.

NXA-ENET8-2POE Gigabit Ethernet Layer 2 PoE Switch
The port on which an LLDP frame was received.
LLDP-MED devices are comprised of two primary types:
LLDP-MED Network Connectivity Devices - as defined in TIA-1057, provide
access to the IEEE 802 based LAN infrastructure for LLDPMED Endpoint
Devices. An LLDP-MED Network Connectivity Device is a LAN access device
based on any of the following technologies:
LAN Switch/Router
IEEE 802.1 Bridge
IEEE 802.3 Repeater (included for historical reasons)
IEEE 802.11 Wireless Access Point
Any device that supports the IEEE 802.1AB and MED extensions defined by
TIA-1057 and can relay IEEE 802 frames via any method.
LLDP-MED Endpoint Device - Within this category, the LLDP-MED scheme is
broken into further Endpoint Device Classes, as defined in the following.
Each LLDP-MED Endpoint Device Class is defined to build upon the
capabilities defined for the previous Endpoint Device Class. For example will
any LLDP-MED Endpoint Device claiming compliance as a Media Endpoint
(Class II) also support all aspects of TIA-1057 applicable to Generic
Endpoints (Class I), and any LLDP-MED Endpoint Device claiming
compliance as a Communication Device (Class III) will also support all
aspects of TIA-1057 applicable to both Media Endpoints (Class II) and
Generic Endpoints (Class I).
LLDP-MED Generic Endpoint (Class I) - Applicable to all endpoint products that
require the base LLDP discovery services defined in TIA-1057, however do not
support IP media or act as an end-user communication appliance. Such devices
may include (but are not limited to) IP Communication Controllers, other
communication related servers, or any device requiring basic services as
defined in TIA-1057.
Discovery services defined in this class include LAN configuration, device
location, network policy, power management, and inventory management.
LLDP-MED Media Endpoint (Class II) - Applicable to all endpoint products that
have IP media capabilities however may or may not be associated with a
particular end user. Capabilities include all of the capabilities defined for the
previous Generic Endpoint Class (Class I), and are extended to include aspects
related to media streaming. Example product categories expected to adhere to
this class include (but are not limited to) Voice / Media Gateways, Conference
Bridges, Media Servers, and similar.
Discovery services defined in this class include media-type specific network
layer policy discovery.
