Link Layer Discovery
Protocol
LLDP conforms to IEEE
802.1ab and is a neighbor discovery protocol. Each LLDP-enabled device transmits information
to its neighbors, including chassis and port identification, system name and description,
VLAN (Virtual LAN) names, and other selected networking information. The
protocol also specifies timing intervals in order to ensure current information is being
transmitted and received.
