Configuring Global LLDP Packet Controls

The commands in this section configure the aspects of LLDP operation that
apply the same to all ports in the switch.
Enabling or Disabling LLDP Operation on the Switch. Enabling LLDP
operation (the default) causes the switch to:
■ Use active, LLDP-enabled ports to transmit LLDP packets describing itself
to neighbor devices.
Add entries to its neighbors table based on data read from incoming LLDP
■
advertisements. (3400cl/6400cl switches can also add entries to the neigh­
bors table based on data read from incoming CDP advertisements.)
Syntax [ no ] lldp run
Enables or disables LLDP operation on the switch. The no form
of the command, regardless of individual LLDP port configu­
rations, prevents the switch from transmitting outbound
LLDP advertisements, and causes the switch to drop all LLDP
advertisements received from other devices. The switch pre-
serves the current LLDP configuration when LLDP is disabled.
After LLDP is disabled, the information in the LLDP neighbors
database remains until it times-out. (Default: Enabled)
For example, to disable LLDP on the switch:
HPswitch(config)# no lldp run
Configuring for Network Management Applications
LLDP (Link-Layer Discovery Protocol)
The blank IpAddress field indicates that the
default IP address will be advertised from this
port. (Refer to page 14-42: "Configuring a
Remote Management Address for Outbound
