The Administrative Process
Note:
The only exception to this sequence is in the case of VLAN IDs. In the case of VLAN IDs, LLDP settings of VLAN IDs are the absolute authority. Then the usual sequence applies. For the L2QVLAN and L2Q system values, LLDP settings of VLAN IDs are the absolute authority only if the LLDP task receives the VLAN IDs before DHCP, and the DHCP client of the telephone is activated at all. If the LLDP task receives the VLAN IDs after DHCP negotiation, several criteria must be successful before the telephone accepts VLAN IDs from LLDP. For more information, see Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) on page 101.
