Configuration

Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is defined in the IEEE 802.1AB, which is an emerging standard
providing a solution for the configuration issues caused by expanding LANs. LLDP specifically defines a
standard for Ethernet network devices such as switches, routers and wireless LAN access points to
advertise information about themselves to other nodes on the network and store the information they
discover. LLDP runs on all 802 media. The protocol runs over the data-link layer only, allowing two systems
running different network layer protocols to learn about each other.

This allows the administrator to enable or disable LLDP function.

LLDP Interval

This allows the administrator to set the interval of advertising the switch’s
information to other nodes on the network.
