802.1AB Integration
802.1AB Integration provides the ability to configure 802.1AB (LLDP) parameters to allow
improved provisioning of Avaya IP handsets
Support for Avaya proprietary 802.1AB (LLDP) TLVs, which include:
o Enables the switch to provision the Phone via TLVs rather than DHCP/TFTP method
o Improved provisioning capabilities by allowing the switch to configure: call-server, file-
server, poe-conservation, dot1q-framing
o The switch can report on currently used parameters per port as well as listing the
Phones in-use IP parameters.
o Integrates with Avaya Energy Saver, so that when Energy Saver is activated, the
poe-conservation parameter is dynamically changes to maximum to drive further
power savings.
802.1AB Defaults
The 802.1AB New Default Parameters feature will change default 802.1AB (LLDP)
parameters to improved day 1 out of the box operation for Voice and UC applications.
The New default values should be the equivalent of:
4500 (config-if) # lldp config-notification
4500 (config-if) # lldp status txAndRx config-notification
4500 (config-if) # lldp tx-tlv local-mgmt-addr port-desc sys-desc sys-name
