Table 22-5

IEEE 802.3 organizationally specific TLVs

Type

Description

MAC/PHY Configuration/Status

Contains the bit-rate and duplex capabilities of the sending port,

support for auto negotiation, enabling status of auto negotiation,

and the current rate and duplex mode.

Power Via MDI

Contains the power supply capability of the port, including the

Power over Ethernet (PoE) type, which can be Power Sourcing

Equipment (PSE) or Powered Device (PD), PoE mode, whether

PSE power supply is supported, whether PSE power supply is

enabled, and whether the PoE mode is controllable.

Link Aggregation

Indicates the aggregation capability of the port (whether the link is

capable of being aggregated), and the aggregation status (whether

the link is in an aggregation).

Maximum Frame Size

Indicates the supported maximum frame size. It is now the MTU of

the port.

Power Stateful Control

Power state control configured on the sending port, including the

power type of the PSE/PD, PoE sourcing/receiving priority, and

PoE sourcing/receiving power.

The Power Stateful Control TLV is defined in IEEE P802.3at D1.0. The later versions no longer
support this TLV. H3C devices send this type of TLVs only after receiving them.

LLDP-MED TLVs

LLDP-MED TLVs provide multiple advanced applications for voice over IP (VoIP), such as basic
configuration, network policy configuration, and address and directory management. LLDP-MED TLVs
provide a cost-effective and easy-to-use solution for deploying voice devices in Ethernet. LLDP-MED
TLVs are shown in

Table 22-6

Table 22-6

LLDP-MED TLVs

Type

Description

LLDP-MED Capabilities

Allows a network device to advertise the LLDP-MED TLVs it supports

Network Policy

Allows a network device or terminal device to advertise VLAN ID of the

specific port, VLAN type, and the Layer 2 and Layer 3 priorities for

specific applications

Extended Power-via-MDI

Allows a network device or terminal device to advertise power supply

capability. This TLV is an extension of the Power Via MDI TLV.
