LLDP Commands
In this chapter
Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is used to discover basic information about neighboring
devices on the local broadcast domain. LLDP is a Layer 2 protocol that uses periodic broadcasts to
advertise information about the sending device. Advertised information is represented in Type
Length Value (TLV) format according to the IEEE 802.1ab standard, and can include details such as
device identification, capabilities and configuration settings. LLDP also defines how to store and
maintain information gathered about the neighboring network nodes it discovers.
