LLDP
Enable and configure LLDP
Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) allows Ethernet network devices, such as switches
and routers, to receive and transmit device-related information to directly connected
devices on the network and to store data that is learned about other devices.

Configure the LLDP Parameter Settings
Message TX Hold Multiplier: Sets the hold multiplier value. The hold time multiplier is
multiplied by the transmit interval to give the Time To Live (TTL) that the switch
advertises to the neighbors. The range is from 2 to 10.
Message TX Interval: Sets the transmit interval, which is the interval between regular
transmissions of LLDP advertisements. The range is from 5 to 32768 seconds.
LLDP Reinit Delay: Sets the reinitialization delay, which is the number of seconds that
must elapse after LLDP is disabled on a port before it can be reinitialized. The range is
from 1 to 10 seconds.
LLDP TX Delay: Sets the value of the transmission delay timer, which is the minimum
time interval between transmissions of LLDP advertisements due to a change in LLDP
local information. The range is from 1 to 8192 seconds.
Click Apply to save the settings.
