To do…

Use the command…

Remarks

Set the number of LLDP frames
sent each time fast LLDPDU
transmission is triggered.

lldp fast-count count

Optional

3 by default

Both the LLDPDU transmit interval and delay must be less than the TTL to ensure that the LLDP

neighbors can receive LLDP frames to update information about the device you are configuring before

it is aged out.

Setting an Encapsulation Format for LLDPDUs

LLDPDUs can be encapsulated in Ethernet II or SNAP frames.

z

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

processes an incoming LLDP frame only when it is Ethernet II encapsulated.

z

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

processes an incoming LLDP frame only when it is SNAP encapsulated.

By default, LLDPDUs are encapsulated in Ethernet II frames. If the neighbor devices encapsulate

LLDPDUs in SNAP frames, configure the encapsulation format for LLDPDUs as SNAP to guarantee

normal communication with the neighbors.

Follow these steps to set the encapsulation format for LLDPDUs to SNAP:
