Setting an encapsulation format for LLDP frames
LLDP frames can be encapsulated in the following formats:
•
Ethernet II—With Ethernet II encapsulation configured, an LLDP port sends LLDP frames in Ethernet
II frames.
•
SNAP—With SNAP encapsulation configured, an LLDP port sends LLDP frames in SNAP frames.
LLDP of earlier versions requires the same encapsulation format on both ends to process LLDP frames. To
successfully communicate with a neighboring device running LLDP of earlier versions, the local device
must be configured with the same encapsulation format.
To set the encapsulation format for LLDP frames to SNAP:

3.
Set the encapsulation
format for LLDP frames to
SNAP.
•
In Layer 2/Layer 3 Ethernet interface
view or management Ethernet interface
view:
lldp [ agent { nearest-customer |
nearest-nontpmr } ] encapsulation snap
•
In Layer 2/Layer 3 aggregate interface
view:
lldp agent { nearest-customer |
nearest-nontpmr } encapsulation snap
By default, Ethernet II
encapsulation format
applies.
