Configuring LLDP, LLDP-MED, and Wired Location Service
•
If you first configure a network-policy profile on an interface, you cannot apply the switchport
voice vlan command on the interface. If the switchport voice vlan vlan-id is already configured on
an interface, you can apply a network-policy profile on the interface. This way the interface has the
voice or voice-signaling VLAN network-policy profile applied on the interface.
•
You cannot configure static secure MAC addresses on an interface that has a network-policy profile.
•
You cannot configure a network-policy profile on a private-VLAN port.
Enabling LLDP
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enable LLDP:
To disable LLDP, use the no lldp run global configuration command. To disable LLDP on an interface,
use the no lldp transmit and the no lldp receive interface configuration commands.
This example shows how to globally enable LLDP.
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# lldp run
Switch(config)# end
This example shows how to enable LLDP on an interface.
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# interface interface_id
Switch(config-if)# lldp transmit
Switch(config-if)# lldp receive
Switch(config-if)# end
Configuring LLDP Characteristics
You can configure the frequency of LLDP updates, the amount of time to hold the information before
discarding it, and the initialization delay time. You can also select the LLDP and LLDP-MED TLVs to
send and receive.
