Enabling and Disabling MED TLV
The lldp tlv med command is used to control per port LLDP Media End Device (MED) TLVs
transmission in the LLDPDUs on a specific port, a slot, or all ports on a switch. When enabled, the
LLDPDU administrative status must be in the transmit state.
To enable the LLDP-MED TLV LLDPDU transmission on a switch, enter the lldp tlv med command, as
shown:
-> lldp chassis tlv med power enable
To enable the MED TLV on port 4 of slot 4, enter the following command at the CLI prompt:
-> lldp port 4/4 tlv med capability enable
To disable the MED TLV on a switch, enter the lldp tlv med command, as shown:
-> lldp chassis tlv med power disable
To disable MED TLV on port 3 of slot 4, enter the following command at the CLI prompt:
-> lldp port 4/3 tlv med capability disable
To enable the voice application network policy for a MED TLV on the port 3 of slot 4, enter the
following command at the CLI prompt:
-> lldp port 4/3 tlv med network policy 1 enable
To disable a MED TLV voice network policy on the port 3 of slot 4, enter the following command at the
CLI prompt:
-> lldp port 4/3 tlv med network policy 1 disable
Setting the Transmit Interval
To set the transmit time interval for LLDPDUs, enter the lldp transmit interval command. For example,
to set the transmit time interval as 40 seconds, enter:
-> lldp transmit interval 40
Setting the Transmit Hold Multiplier Value
To set the transmit hold multiplier value, enter the lldp transmit hold-multiplier command. For
example, to set the transmit hold multiplier value to 2, enter:
-> lldp transmit hold-multiplier 2
Note: The Time To Live is a multiple of the transmit interval and transmit hold-multiplier.
Setting the Transmit Delay
To set the minimum time interval between successive LLDPDUs transmitted, enter the lldp transmit
delay command. For example, to set the transmit delay value to 20 seconds, enter:
-> lldp transmit delay 20
