Local Counters

The displayed table contains a row for each port. The columns hold the following information:

Object

Description

Port

The port on which LLDP frames are received or transmitted.

Tx Frames

The number of LLDP frames transmitted on the port.

RX Frames Discarded

If an LLDP frame is received on a port, and the switch's internal table has run full,

the LLDP frame is counted and discarded. This situation is known as "Too Many

Neighbors" in the LLDP standard. LLDP frames require a new entry in the table

when the Chassis ID or Remote Port ID is not already contained within the table.

Entries are removed from the table when a given port links down, an LLDP

shutdown frame is received, or when the entry ages out.

Rx Frame Errors

The number of received LLDP frames containing some kind of error.

Rx Frames Total

The number of LLDP frames received on the port.

Rx Frames TLVs

Discarded

Each LLDP frame can contain multiple pieces of information, known as TLVs

(TLV is short for "Type Length Value"). If a TLV is malformed, it is counted and

discarded.

Rx Frames TLVs

Unrecognized

The number of well-formed TLVs, but with an unknown type value.

Rx Frames Ageouts

Each LLDP frame contains information about how long time the LLDP

information is valid (age-out time). If no new LLDP frame is received within the

age out time, the LLDP information is removed, and the Age-Out counter is

incremented.

4.10.3 Local Information

Use the LLDP Local Information screen to display information about the Managed Switch, such as its MAC address, chassis

ID, system capabilities, system description, management IP address, and port information.
