hello (LLDP)

Sets the interval between LLDP hello messages.

Syntax

hello seconds
no hello

Command Default

30 seconds

Parameters

seconds
Valid values range from 4 through 180 seconds.

Modes

LLDP protocol and profile configuration modes

Usage Guidelines

The LLDP hello messages can also be configured for a specific LLDP profile. When you apply an LLDP profile on an interface using the lldp profile command, it overrides the global configuration. If a profile is not present, then the default global profile is used until you create a valid profile.

Enter no hello to return to the default setting.

Examples

To set the time interval to 10 seconds between the transmissions:

device# configure terminal
device (config)# protocol lldp
device(conf-lldp)# hello ?
Possible completions:
<4-180>   Seconds[30 seconds]
device(conf-lldp)# hello 10

To set the time interval to 8 seconds between the transmissions for a specific LLDP profile:

device(conf-lldp)# profile test1
device(config-profile-test1)# hello 8
device(config-profile-test1)#
