User Guidelines
The actual Time-To-Live (TTL) value of LLDP frames is calculated by the
following formula:
TTL = min(65535, LLDP-Timer * LLDP-hold-multiplier)
For example, if the value of the LLDP timer is 30 seconds, and the value of
the LLDP hold multiplier is 4, then the value 120 is encoded in the TTL field
of the LLDP header.
