System name

The system name is the system administratively assigned name, taken from the sysName MIB object
in MIB-II. The sysName MIB object corresponds to the name defined with the CLI command
hostname .

By default, the system name is automatically advertised when LLDP is enabled on a global basis. To
disable this advertisement, enter a command such as the following.

device(config)#no lldp advertise system-name ports e 2/4 to 2/12

The system name will appear similar to the following on the remote device, and in the CLI display
output on the Brocade device (show lldp local-info ).

System name: "FCX624SHPOE-ADV Router"

Syntax:[no] lldp advertise system-name ports ethernet port-list | all

802.1 capabilities

Except for the VLAN name, the Brocade device will advertise the following 802.1 attributes when
LLDP is enabled on a global basis:

• VLAN name (not automatically advertised)
• Untagged VLAN ID

VLAN name

The VLAN name TLV contains the name and VLAN ID of a VLAN configured on a port. An LLDPDU
may include multiple instances of this TLV, each for a different VLAN.

To advertise the VLAN name, enter a command such as the following.

device(config)#lldp advertise vlan-name vlan 99 ports e 2/4 to 2/12

The VLAN name will appear similar to the following on the remote device, and in the CLI display
output on the Brocade device (show lldp local-info ).

VLAN name (VLAN 99): "Voice-VLAN-99"

Syntax:[no] lldp advertise vlan-name vlan vlan ID ports ethernet port-list | all

Forvlan ID , enter the VLAN ID to advertise.

Untagged VLAN ID

The port VLAN ID TLV advertises the Port VLAN Identifier (PVID) that will be associated with
untagged or priority-tagged frames. If the port is not an untagged member of any VLAN (i.e., the port is
strictly a tagged port), the value zero will indicate that.

By default, the port VLAN ID is automatically advertised when LLDP is enabled on a global basis. To
disable this advertisement, enter a command such as the following.

device(config)#no lldp advertise port-vlan-id ports e 2/4 to 2/12

The untagged VLAN ID will appear similar to the following on the remote device, and in the CLI display
output on the Brocade device (show lldp local-info ).

Port VLAN ID: 99
