Network Connectivity Device receives an LLDP packet from an
Endpoint that is newly connected to the network.
NOTE
The LLDP-MED fast start mechanism is only intended to run on links
between Network Connectivity devices and Endpoint devices. It does
not apply to links between LAN infrastructure elements, including
between Network Connectivity devices, or to other types of links.

Enabling LLDP-MED
When LLDP is enabled globally, LLDP-MED is enabled if the LLDP-MED capabilities TLV is also
enabled. By default, the LLDP-MED capabilities TLV is automatically enabled. To enable LLDP, refer to
on page 174.
NOTE
LLDP-MED is not enabled on ports where the LLDP operating mode is receive only or transmit only.
LLDP-MED is enabled on ports that are configured to both receive and transmit LLDP packets and have
the LLDP-MED capabilities TLV enabled.
