5.4.5.4.12Overriding a Link Layer Discovery Protocol Configuration
Overriding the Network Configuration
The Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) provides a standard way for a controller or access point to advertise information about
themselves to networked neighbors and store information they discover from their peers.
LLDP is neighbor discovery protocol that defines a method for network access devices using Ethernet connectivity to advertise
information about them to peer devices on the same physical LAN and store information about the network. It allows a device
to learn higher layer management and connection endpoint information from adjacent devices.
Using LLDP, an access point is able to advertise its own identification, capabilities and media-specific configuration information
and learn the same information from connected peer devices.
LLDP information is sent in an Ethernet frame at a fixed interval. Each frame contains one Link Layer Discovery Protocol Data
Unit (LLDP PDU). A single LLDP PDU is transmitted in a single 802.3 Ethernet frame.
To override a profile's LLDP configuration:
1. Select
