Device class
Device class advertised by the local device:
• Connectivity device—An intermediate device that provide network connectivity.
• Class I—A generic endpoint device. All endpoints that require the discovery
service of LLDP belong to this category.
• Class II—A media endpoint device. The class II endpoint devices support the
media stream capabilities and the capabilities of generic endpoint devices.
• Class III—A communication endpoint device. The class III endpoint devices
directly support end users of the IP communication system. Providing all
capabilities of generic and media endpoint devices, Class III endpoint devices
are used directly by end users.
