Only CDP TLVs that can be mapped into a corresponding field in the LLDP

neighbors table are decoded. All other TLVs are discarded ( Unrecognized CDP

TLVs and discarded CDP frame are not shown in the LLDP statistic. Only ). CDP

TLVs are mapped into LLDP neighbors table as shown below.

CDP TLV "Device ID" is mapped into the LLDP "Chassis ID" field.

CDP TLV "Address" is mapped into the LLDP "Management Address" field. The

CDP address TLV can contain multiple addresses, but only the first address is

shown in the LLDP neighbors table.

CDP TLV "Port ID" is mapped into the LLDP "Port ID" field.

CDP TLV "Version and Platform" is mapped into the LLDP "System Description"

field.

Both the CDP and LLDP supports "system capabilities", but the CDP capabilities

cover capabilities that are not part of the LLDP. These capabilities are shown as

"others" in the LLDP neighbors table.

If all ports have CDP awareness disabled the switch forwards CDP frames

received from neighbor devices. If at least one port has CDP awareness enabled

all CDP frames are terminated by the switch.

Note: When CDP awareness for a port is disabled the CDP information isn't

removed immediately, but will be removed when the hold time is exceeded.

Port Descr

Optional TLV: When checked the "port description" is included in LLDP

information transmitted.

Sys Name

Optional TLV: When checked the "system name" is included in LLDP information

transmitted.

Sys Descr

Optional TLV: When checked the "system description" is included in LLDP

information transmitted.

Sys Capa

Optional TLV: When checked the "system capability" is included in LLDP

information transmitted.

The system capabilities identifies the primary function(s) of the system and

whether or not these primary functions are enabled. The information advertised

by this TLV is described in IEEE 802.1AB.

Mgmt Addr

Optional TLV: When checked the "management address" is included in LLDP

information transmitted.

The management address protocol packet includes the IPv4 address of the

switch. If no management address is available, the address should be the MAC

address for the CPU or for the port sending this advertisement. The management

address TLV may also include information about the specific interface associated

with this address, and an object identifier indicating the type of hardware

component or protocol entity associated with this address
