CAUTION!
Security hazard – risk of unauthorized access and/or exploitation. LLDP is not secure by definition.
Avoid enabling LLDP on devices connected to external networks. Siemens recommends using LLDP
only in secure environments operating within a security perimeter.
NOTE
LLDP is implemented to keep a record of only one device per Ethernet port. Therefore, if there are
multiple devices sending LLDP information to a switch port on which LLDP is enabled, information
about the neighbor on that port will change constantly.
The following sections describe how to configure and manage LLDP:
•
Section 5.38.1, "Configuring LLDP"
•
Section 5.38.2, "Viewing Global Statistics and Advertised System Information"
•
Section 5.38.3, "Viewing Statistics for LLDP Neighbors"
•
Section 5.38.4, "Viewing Statistics for LLDP Ports"
Section 5.38.1
Configuring LLDP
To configure the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP), do the following:
1.
Make sure the CLI is in Configuration mode.
Navigate to switch » net-discovery » lldp and configure the following parameter(s) as required:
2.
Parameter
enabled
tx-interval { tx-interval }
tx-hold { tx-hold }
reinit-delay { reinit-delay }
tx-delay { tx-delay }
Configuring LLDP
Description
Synopsis: true or false
Default: true
Enables the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP). Note that
LLDP is enabled on a port when LLDP is enabled globally and
along with enabling per port setting in the Port LLDP Parameters
menu.
Synopsis: An integer between 5 and 32768
Default: 30
The interval at which Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP)
frames are transmitted on behalf of this LLDP agent.
Synopsis: An integer between 2 and 10
Default: 4
The multiplier of the Tx Interval parameter that determines the
actual time-to-live (TTL) value used in an LLDPDU. The actual
TTL value can be expressed by the following formula: TTL =
MIN(65535, (Tx Interval * Tx Hold))
Synopsis: An integer between 1 and 10
Default: 2
The delay in seconds from when the value of the Admin Status
parameter of a particular port becomes 'Disbled' until re-
initialization will be attempted.
Synopsis: An integer between 1 and 8192
Default: 2
