Configuring the Switch
3-110

CLI – This example shows statistics for port 13.
Cabletron Discovery Protocol
The Cabletron Discovery Protocol (CDP) protocol enables a switch to discover the
topology of other CDP-aware devices in the network. The protocol enables each
switch to determine if other CDP-aware switches are adjacent to it. Note that two
switches are adjacent if and only if the following two requirements are satisfied:
1. There exists a Spanning Tree path between them.
2. There exists no other CDP-aware device between the two switches on that
Spanning Tree path.
Globally Configuring CDP
Use the CDP Global Settings screen to configure global settings.
Command Attributes
• Status – Sets the global switch CDP action.
- Enabled – Enables CDP for the switch. Ports will process CDP packets
depending on the port CDP setting.
- Disabled – Disables CDP on the switch. The switch does not send CDP packets
from any port, regardless of the port CDP setting. Any CDP packets received are
flooded to all other ports.
