LLDP MED Port Settings
The LLDP MED Port Settings page enables the selection of the LLDP-MED TLVs 
and/or the network policies to be included in the outgoing LLDP advertisement for 
the desired interfaces. Network Policies are configured using the LLDP MED 
Network Policy page. 
NOTE If LLDP-MED Network Policy for Voice Application (LLDP-MED Network Policy 
Page) is Auto and Auto Voice VLAN is in operation, then the device automatically 
generates an LLDP-MED Network Policy for Voice Application for all the ports that 
are LLDP-MED enabled and are members of the voice VLAN.
To configure LLDP MED on each port:
STEP 1 Click Administration > Discovery - LLDP > LLDP MED Port Settings.
This page displays the following LLDP MED settings for all ports (only fields not 
described in the Edit page are listed): 
• Location—Whether Location TLV is transmitted.
• PoE—Whether POE-PSE TLV is transmitted. 
• Inventory—Whether Inventory TLV is transmitted.
