System > LLDP > LLDP Neighbor EEE
This page provides an overview of EEE information exchanged by LLDP.
By using EEE power savings can be achieved at the expense of traffic latency. This latency occurs due to that the
circuits EEE turn off to save power, need time to boot up before sending traffic over the link. This time is called
"wakeup time". To achieve minimal latency, devices can use LLDP to exchange information about their respective
TX and RX "wakeup time", as a way to agree on the minimum wakeup time they need.
The displayed table contains a row for each interface.
If the interface does not support EEE, then it displays as "EEE not supported for this interface".
If EEE is not enabled on particular interface, then it displays as "EEE not enabled for this interface".
If the link partner doesn't support EEE, then it displays as "Link partner is not EEE capable”.
Local Port: The interface at which LLDP frames are received or transmitted.
Tx Tw: The link partner's maximum time that transmit path can hold-off sending data after deassertion of LPI.
Rx Tw: The link partner's time that the receiver would like the transmitter to hold-off to allow time for the receiver
to wake from sleep.
Fallback Receive Tw: The link partner's fallback receive Tw. A receiving link partner may inform the transmitter
of an alternate desired Tw_sys_tx. Since a receiving link partner is likely to have discrete levels for savings, this
provides the transmitter with additional information that it may use for a more efficient allocation. Systems that do
not implement this option default the value to be the same as that of the Receive Tw_sys_tx.
Echo Tx Tw: The link partner's Echo Tx Tw value. The respective echo values will be defined as the local link
partners reflection (echo) of the remote link partners respective values. When a local link partner receives its
echoed values from the remote link partner it can determine whether or not the remote link partner has received,
registered and processed its most recent values. For example, if the local link partner receives echoed
parameters that do not match the values in its local MIB, then the local link partner infers that the remote link
partners request was based on stale information.
Echo Rx Tw: The link partner's Echo Rx Tw value.
Resolved Tx Tw: The resolved Tx Tw for this link. Note : NOT the link partner. The resolved value that is the
actual "tx wakeup time " used for this link (based on EEE information exchanged via LLDP).
Resolved Rx Tw: The resolved Rx Tw for this link. Note : NOT the link partner. The resolved value that is the
actual "tx wakeup time " used for this link (based on EEE information exchanged via LLDP).
