LLDP
Configuring LLDP on an AP
17-11
AP name
When the Generate dynamic system names option is enabled on the Controllers >>
Network > Discovery protocols page, the system name of the AP will be replaced with a
dynamically generated name that you define.
Specify how the dynamically generated name will be created. You can use regular text in
combination with placeholders to create the name. Placeholders are automatically expanded
each time the name is regenerated.
If the placeholders cause the generated name to exceed 32 characters, it is truncated.
Placeholders
%RN: System name of the neighboring device to which the port is connected, obtained
via the System Name TLV. Since this is an optional TLV, if it is not available, the Chassis
ID TLV is used instead.
%RP: Port description of the port on the neighboring device to which the local port is
connected, obtained via the Port Description TLV. Since this is an optional TLV, if it is not
available, the Port ID TLV is used instead.
%SN: The AP serial number.
%IP: The AP IP address. An IP address can require up to 15 characters
(nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn).
Important
Once a system name is dynamically changed by this feature, there is no way to automatically
return to the original system name.
Application type profiles
Application type profiles are used to define configuration settings which can be applied to the
Application Type field in a Network Policy TLV on a MSM317 switch port.
The Network Policy TLV enables the MSM317 switch port to send configuration information
to voice devices such as IP phones. To configure use of the Network Policy TLV, select
Controlled APs >> Configuration > Switch ports > {switch-port].
Application type
This release only supports the Voice application type.
VLAN ID
Specify a VLAN ID for this profile. This VLAN will be assigned to the switch port.
VLAN tagging
Tagged: The VLAN is tagged.
Untagged: The VLAN is untagged.
