Configuration Overview

You configure LLDP (Link Layer Discovery Protocol) per port, and each port can store received information for a maximum of four neighbors.

Note

Note

LLDP runs with link aggregation.

You can configure LLDP per port.

  1. Enable LLDP on the desired port(s) as described in Enabling and Disabling LLDP.
  2. If you want to change any default timer values, see Configuring LLDP Timers.
  3. Enable the SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) traps and configure the notification interval as described in Configuring SNMP for LLDP.
  4. Configure any optional TLV advertisements as described in Configuring Optional TLV Advertisements.
    Note

    Note

    By default, an LLDP-enabled port advertises the optional system description TLV. By default, all other optional TLVs are not advertised.
