3. Allow LLDP to advertise the
management address in
LLDP frames and configure
the advertised management
address.
• In Layer 2 Ethernet interface
view or management Ethernet
interface view:
lldp [ agent
{ nearest-customer |
nearest-nontpmr } ] tlv-enable
basic-tlv
management-address-tlv
[ ipv6 ] [ ip-address ]
• In Layer 3 Ethernet interface
view:
lldp [ agent
{ nearest-customer |
nearest-nontpmr } ] tlv-enable
basic-tlv
management-address-tlv
[ ipv6 ] [ ip-address ] | interface
loopback interface-number ]
• In Layer 2/Layer 3 aggregate
interface view:
lldp agent { nearest-customer
| nearest-nontpmr } tlv-enable
basic-tlv
management-address-tlv
[ ipv6 ] [ ip-address ]
By default:
• Nearest bridge agents
and nearest customer
bridge agents can
advertise the
management address in
LLDP frames.
• Nearest non-TPMR
bridge agents cannot
advertise the
management address in
LLDP frames.
The device supports only the
numeric encoding format for
IPv6 management addresses.
4. Set the encoding format of
the management address to
string.
• In Layer 2/Layer 3 Ethernet
interface view or management
Ethernet interface view:
lldp [ agent
{ nearest-customer |
nearest-nontpmr } ]
management-address-format
string
• In Layer 2/Layer 3 aggregate
interface view:
lldp agent { nearest-customer
| nearest-nontpmr }
management-address-format
string
By default, the encoding
format of the management
address is numeric.
Setting other LLDP parameters
The Time to Live TLV carried in an LLDPDU determines how long the device information carried in
the LLDPDU can be saved on a recipient device.
By setting the TTL multiplier, you can configure the TTL of locally sent LLDPDUs. The TTL is
expressed by using the following formula:
TTL = Min (65535, (TTL multiplier × LLDP frame transmission interval + 1))
As the expression shows, the TTL can be up to 65535 seconds. TTLs greater than 65535 will be
rounded down to 65535 seconds.
To set LLDP parameters:
