Step Command

Remarks

2.

Set the TTL multiplier.

lldp hold-multiplier value

The default setting is 4.

3.

Set the LLDPDU transmit

interval.

lldp timer tx-interval interval

The default setting is 30
seconds.

4.

Set the token bucket size for
sending LLDPDUs.

lldp max-credit credit-value

The default setting is 5.

5.

Set the LLDPDU transmit delay. lldp timer tx-delay delay

The default setting is 2 seconds.

6.

Set the number of LLDPDUs
sent each time fast LLDPDU

transmission is triggered.

lldp fast-count count

The default setting is 4.

7.

Set an interval for fast LLDPDU
transmission.

lldp timer fast-interval interval

The default setting is 1 second.

Setting an encapsulation format for LLDPDUs

LLDPDUs can be encapsulated in the following formats: Ethernet II or SNAP frames.

With Ethernet II encapsulation configured, an LLDP port sends LLDPDUs in Ethernet II frames.

With SNAP encapsulation configured, an LLDP port sends LLDPDUs in SNAP frames.

To set the encapsulation format for LLDPDUs to SNAP:

Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2.

Enter Layer 2 or Layer 3
Ethernet interface view or

Layer 2 aggregate interface

view.

interface interface-type interface-number

N/A

3.

Set the encapsulation
format for LLDPDUs to

SNAP.

In Layer 2 or Layer 3 Ethernet interface
view:

lldp [ agent { nearest-customer |

nearest-nontpmr } ] encapsulation snap

In Layer 2 aggregate interface view:

lldp agent { nearest-customer |

nearest-nontpmr } encapsulation snap

By default, Ethernet II
encapsulation format

applies.

NOTE:

LLDP of earlier versions requires the same encapsulation format on both ends to process LLDPDUs. For this
reason, to communicate stably with a neighboring device running LLDP of earlier versions, the local device

should be configured with the same encapsulation format.

Configuring CDP compatibility

When the switch is directly connected to a Cisco device that supports only CDP rather than LLDP, you can

enable CDP compatibility to enable the switch to exchange information with the directly-connected
device.
