GFK-2571A Chapter 7 Network Management 7-9
Management Address TLV
The Management Address is the address associated with the local LLDP agent that may be used to
reach higher layers within the device to assist with LLDP operations. Typically, this indicates how to
reach the LLDP MIB. The Management Address TLV contains three fields: Management Address,
Interface Number, and Object Identifier (OID).
Management Address
The Management Address indicates the management address of this device. For the RX3i PNC, the
management address is the IP address of the device.
IPv4 address of this device
Interface Number
The Interface Number identifies a specific interface or port at the specified management address.
Thus the interface number varies with the network port number. The RX3i Controller uses the
current network port number.
Management port number (1-max nework ports)
Object Identifier (OID)
The OID specifies a MIB object (typically the LLDP MIB) in ASN.1 format that is reachable at the
specified management address and interface number. A length of zero means that an OID is not
provided. The OID value is internally assigned by, and meaningful only to, the LLDP device.
