Enable LLDP Voice Authentication on a Specific Port

About this task

Perform this procedure to enable Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) voice authentication of IP phones on a port.

You cannot manually enable LLDP voice authentication on an Auto-sense-enabled port. If the system detects a phone on an Auto-sense port, then “eapol voice lldp-auth” configuration is automatically applied on the port that connects to the phone. This procedure applies to ports with Auto-sense disabled.

Procedure

  1. Enter GigabitEthernet Interface Configuration mode:

    enable

    configure terminal

    interface GigabitEthernet {slot/port[/sub-port][-slot/port[/sub-port]][,...][slot/all][all]}

    Note

    Note

    If the platform supports channelization and the port is channelized, you must also specify the sub-port in the format slot/port/sub-port.

  2. Enable LLDP voice authentication on a specific port:

    eapol voice lldp-auth

Example

Enabling LLDP voice authentication on a specific port:

Switch:1>enable
Switch:1#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch:1(config)#interface gigabitEthernet 1/2
Switch:1(config-if)#eapol voice lldp-auth

Variable Definitions
