Command Usage
• The management address protocol packet includes the IPv4 address of the switch. If no
management address is available, the address should be the MAC address for the CPU or for
the port sending this advertisement.
• The management address TLV may also include information about the specific interface
associated with this address, and an object identifier indicating the type of hardware
component or protocol entity associated with this address. The interface number and OID are
included to assist SNMP applications to perform network discovery by indicating enterprise
specific or other starting points for the search, such as the Interface or Entity MIB.
• Since there are typically a number of different addresses associated with a Layer 3 device, an
individual LLDP PDU may contain more than one management address TLV.
• Every management address TLV that reports an address that is accessible on a port and
protocol VLAN through the particular port should be accompanied by a port and protocol VLAN
TLV that indicates the VLAN identifier (VID) associated with the management address reported
by this TLV.
