Figure 26-14.  Configuring LLDPDU Transmit and Receive Mode
Configuring a Time to Live
The information received from a neighbor expires after a specific amount of time (measured in seconds) 
called a Time to Live (TTL). The TTL is the product of the LLDPDU transmit interval (hello) and an 
integer called a multiplier. The default multiplier is 4, which results in a default TTL of 120 seconds. 
Adjust the TTL value—at CONFIGURATION level or INTERFACE level—using the command 
multiplier. 
Return to the default multiplier value using the command 
no multiplier (Figure 26-15).
