Enabling Lldp Polling; Configuring The Tlvs To Be Advertised; Configuring The Management Address - 3Com 4500 PWR 26-Port Configuration Manual

Enabling LLDP Polling

With LLDP polling enabled, a device checks for local configuration changes periodically. Upon detecting
a configuration change, the device sends LLDP frames to inform the neighboring devices of the change.
Follow these steps to enable LLDP polling:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter Ethernet interface view
Enable LLDP polling and set
the polling interval

Configuring the TLVs to Be Advertised

Follow these steps to configure the LLDPDU TLVs to be advertised out the specified port or ports:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter Ethernet interface
view
Configure the TLVs to be
advertised

Configuring the Management Address

The management address of a device is used by the network management system to identify and
manage the device for topology maintenance and network management. The management address is
encapsulated in the management address TLV. LLDP encodes management addresses in numeric
format in management address TLVs.
Make sure that a neighbor also encodes its management address in numeric format to guarantee
normal communication with the neighbor.
Follow these steps to configure a management address to be advertised on a port:
To do...
Enter system view
Use the command...
