Interface Settings
The attributes listed below apply to both port and trunk interface types.
When a trunk is listed, the descriptions apply to the first port of the trunk.
u Port/Trunk Description – A string that indicates the port or trunk
description. If RFC 2863 is implemented, the ifDescr object should be
used for this field.
u Port/Trunk ID – A string that contains the specific identifier for the
port or trunk from which this LLDPDU was transmitted.
Interface Details
The attributes listed below apply to both port and trunk interface types.
When a trunk is listed, the descriptions apply to the first port of the trunk.
u Local Port/Trunk – Local interface on this switch.
u Port/Trunk ID Type – There are several ways in which a port may be
identified. A port ID subtype is used to indicate how the port is being
referenced in the Port ID TLV.
u Port/Trunk ID – A string that contains the specific identifier for the
