LLDP
The Link Layer Data Protocol (LLDP) provides a link-layer network discovery mode for tracing and rapidly learning Layer-2 network topology changes.
-
Overview of LLDP
-
LLDP is the neighbor discovery protocol defined in IEEE 802.1ab. Using the LLDP technology, the Network Management System (NMS) can rapidly learn the current network topology and topology changes when the network scale increases rapidly.

Limitations and Precautions for LLDP

-
Configuring LLDP
-
This section describes how to configure the basic LLDP functions for the device to collect the information about topology changes.
-
Maintaining LLDP
-
When you maintain LLDP, you can clear relevant statistics and display the configurations.
-
Configuration Example for LLDP
-
This section provides an example for configuring the LLDP function.
