Advertising TLVs
You can configure the system to advertise TLVs out of all interfaces or out of specific interfaces.
• If you configure the system globally, all interfaces will send LLDPDUs with the specified TLVs.
• If you configure an interface, only the interface will send LLDPDUs with the specified TLVs.
If LLDP is configured both globally and at interface level, the interface level configuration overrides the
global configuration. To advertise TLVs:
In Figure 30-8, LLDP is enabled globally. R1 and R2 are transmitting periodic LLDPDUs that contain
management, 802.1, and 802.3 TLVs.
