remain unused. There is a rather substantial movement to adopt a new version of the Internet
Protocol, IPv6, which would have 128-bits Internet Protocol addresses. This number can be
represented roughly by a three with thirty-nine zeroes after it. However, IPv4 is still the
protocol of choice for most of the Internet.

IPMC

IPMC is an acronym for IP MultiCast.

IP Source Guard

IP Source Guard is a secure feature used to restrict IP traffic on DHCP snooping untrusted ports
by filtering traffic based on the DHCP Snooping Table or manually configured IP Source Bindings.
It helps prevent IP spoofing attacks when a host tries to spoof and use the IP address of another
host.

L

LACP

LACP is an IEEE 802.3ad standard protocol. The Link Aggregation Control Protocol, allows
bundling several physical ports together to form a single logical port.

LLDP

LLDP is an IEEE 802.1ab standard protocol.
The Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) specified in this standard allows stations attached to
an IEEE 802 LAN to advertise, to other stations attached to the same IEEE 802 LAN, the major
capabilities provided by the system incorporating that station, the management address or
addresses of the entity or entities that provide management of those capabilities, and the
identification of the stations point of attachment to the IEEE 802 LAN required by those
management entity or entities. The information distributed via this protocol is stored by its
recipients in a standard Management Information Base (MIB), making it possible for the
information to be accessed by a Network Management System (NMS) using a management
protocol such as the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).

LLDP-MED

LLDP-MED is an extension of IEEE 802.1ab and is defined by the telecommunication industry
association (TIA-1057).

LOC

LOC is an acronym for Loss of Connectivity and is detected by a MEP and is indicating lost
connectivity in the network. Can be used as switch criteria by EPS
