General system information for LLDP
Except for the system description, the Brocade device will advertise the following system information
when LLDP is enabled on a global basis:
• Management address
• Port description
• System capabilities
• System description (not automatically advertised)
• System name
Management Address
A management address is normally an IPv4 or IPv6 address that can be used to manage the device.
Management address advertising has two modes: default, or explicitly configured. The default mode is
used when no addresses are configured to be advertised for a given port. If any addresses are
configured to be advertised for a given port, then only those addresses are advertised. This applies
across address types, so for example, if just one IPv4 address is explicitly configured to be advertised
for a port, then no IPv6 addresses will be advertised for that port (since none were configured to be
advertised), even if IPv6 addresses are configured within the system.
