Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) | 551
If LLDP is configured both globally and at interface level, the interface level configuration overrides the
global configuration. To advertise TLVs:
In Figure 25-8, LLDP is enabled globally. R1 and R2 are transmitting periodic LLDPDUs that contain
management, 802.1, and 802.3 TLVs.
