LLDP Configuration
Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is defined in the IEEE 802.1AB. It is an
emerging standard which provides a solution for the configuration issues caused by
expanding LANs. LLDP specifically defines a standard method for Ethernet network
devices such as switches, routers and wireless LAN access points to advertise
information about themselves to other nodes on the network and store the information
they discover. LLDP runs on all 802 media. The protocol runs over the data-link layer
only, allowing two systems running different network layer protocols to learn about each
other.
LLDP Protocol: Pull down the selection menu to disable or enable LLDP function.
LLDP Interval: Set the interval of advertising the switch’s information to other nodes.
