Configuration Using the Web Interface
Topology Discovery (LLDP)
The ES7510 supports topology discovery or LLDP (IEEE 802.1AB Link Layer Discovery Protocol)
functionality that can help to discovery multi-vendor’s network devices on the same segment by a network
monitoring system (NMS) that supports LLDP functionality.
With LLDP functionality, NMS can easily maintain the topology map, display port ID, port description,
system description, and VLAN ID. Once a link failure occurs, the topology changes the events that can be
updated to the NMS as well. The LLDP Port State can display the neighbor ID and IP learnt from the
connected devices.

LLDP Configuration
LLDP timer
This is the interval time of each LLDP in seconds; valid values
are from 5 to 254. The default is 20 seconds when LLDP is
enabled.
LLDP hold time
The Time to Live (TTL) timer. The LLDP state expires when the
LLDP is not received by the hold time. The default is 120 seconds
when LLDP is enabled. and the range is from 10 to 255.
LLDP Port State
Local Port

Neighbor ID
The MAC address of the peer device on the same network
segment.
Neighbor IP
The IP address of the peer device on the same network segment.
Neighbor VID
The VLAN ID of the peer device on the same network segment.
