By setting the TTL multiplier, you can configure the TTL of locally sent LLDPDUs, which determines how
long information about the local device can be saved on a neighboring device. The TTL is expressed by
using the following formula:
TTL = Min (65535, (TTL multiplier × LLDPDU transmit interval))
As the expression shows, the TTL can be up to 65535 seconds. TTLs greater than 65535 will be rounded
down to 65535 seconds.
Follow these steps to change the TTL multiplier:

3 by default.
NOTE:
To ensure that LLDP neighbors can receive LLDPDUs to update information about the current device before
it is aged out, configure both the LLDPDU transmit interval and delay to be less than the TTL.
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 and
only processes incoming, Ethernet II encapsulated LLDPDUs.
• With SNAP encapsulation configured, an LLDP port sends LLDPDUs in SNAP frames and only
processes incoming, SNAP encapsulated LLDPDUs.
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:
