4.59 LLDP – LLDP Configuration
The Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is an IEEE 802.1ab standard protocol. The LLDP specified in this standard allows stations attached to an IEEE 802 LAN to advertise, to other stations attached to the same IEEE 802 LAN (for a more detailed explanation of this protocol, see the online help). This page is divided into a global section and a per-port configuration section.
4.59.1 LLDP Parameters
This section allows the user to configure the LLDP Parameters per port:
Tx Interval Set or show the Tx Interval. Valid values are restricted to 5 - 32768 seconds. The switch periodically transmits LLDP frames to its neighbors to keep the network discovery information up-to-date. The interval between each LLDP frame is determined by the Tx Interval value. Tx Hold Set or show the Tx Hold value which is used to determine how long the information in the LLDP frame remains valid (the valid period). Values are restricted to 2 - 10 times. The valid period equals Tx Hold multiplied by Tx Interval seconds. Each LLDP frame stores the valid period to know how long the information in the LLDP frame shall be considered valid.
