The following is an example of the CLI commands:
LLDP Port Settings
LLDP configuration of a port includes activating LLDP notification on it,
and selecting the optional TLVs that will be sent in the LLDP PDU, in
addition to the mandatory ones.
By setting these properties, it is possible to provide additional types of
information to those network devices that support the LLDP.
To configure LLDP per port:
1 Click Switching > LLDP > LLDP Port Settings in the tree view to
display the LLDP Port Settings: Summary page.
LLDP settings for all ports are displayed.
2 To modify the LLDP settings for a port, click Edit and select the port to be
configured.
3 Select the transmission type on which LLDP is to be configured in the
State field. The possible options are:
• Tx Only — Enables LLDP on transmitting LLDP packets only.
• Rx Only — Enables LLDP on receiving LLDP packets only.
• Tx & Rx — Enables LLDP on transmitting and receiving LLDP
packets.
• Disable — LLDP is disabled on the port.
4 Move the optional TLVs that the switch should advertise from the
Available TLV list to the Optional TLV list. The TLVs advertise the
following:
–
