Enable LLDP to advertise 
management address TLVs 
and configure the advertised 
management IP address 
lldp management-address-tlv 
[ ip-address ] 
Optional 
By default, the management 
address is sent through 
LLDPDUs, and the 
management address is the 
main IP address of the 
lowest-ID VLAN carried on the 
interface. If the VLAN is not 
assigned a main IP address, 
127.0.0.1 is used.  
 
Setting Other LLDP Parameters 
The TTL TLV carried in an LLDPDU determines how long the device information carried in the LLDPDU 
can be saved on a recipient device.  
You can configure the TTL of locally sent LLDP frames to determine how long information about the 
local device can be saved on a neighbor device by setting the TTL multiplier. The TTL is expressed as 
follows: 
TTL = Min (65535, (TTL multiplier × LLDPDU transmit interval)) 
As the expression shows, the TTL can be up to 65535 seconds. TTLs greater than it will be rounded 
down to 65535 seconds.  
Follow these steps to change the TTL multiplier:

Set LLDPDU transmit delay

Set the number of LLDP frames 
sent each time fast LLDPDU 
transmission is triggered.  
lldp fast-count count 
Optional 
3 by default 
 
 
Both the LLDPDU transmit interval and delay must be less than the TTL to ensure that the LLDP 
neighbors can receive LLDP frames to update information about the device you are configuring before 
it is aged out.
