3.8.4 LLDP-MED Neighbors

This section provides a status overview of all LLDP-MED neighbors. The table contains a row for each port on which an LLDP neighbor is detected. This function applies to VoIP devices that support LLDP-MED.

Web Interface

To show LLDP-MED neighbor:

1.Click LLDP-MED Neighbor.

2.Click Refresh for manual update Web screen.

3.Click Auto-refresh for auto-update Web screen.

Figure 3-46: The LLDP-MED Neighbor Information screen

NOTE: If your network supports LLDPMED without any devices, then the table will show “No LLDP-MED neighbor information found”.

Parameter Description

•Port: The port on which the LLDP frame was received.

•Device Type:

-LLDP-MED Devices are comprised of two primary Device Types: Network Connectivity Devices and Endpoint Devices.

-LLDP-MED Network Connectivity Devices, as defined in TIA-1057, provide access to the IEEE 802-based LAN infrastructure for LLDP-MED Endpoint Devices. An LLDP-MED Network Connectivity Device is a LAN access device based on any of the following technologies:

1.LAN Switch/Router

2.IEEE 802.1 Bridge

3.IEEE 802.3 Repeater (included for historical reasons)

4.IEEE 802.11 Wireless Access Point

5.Any device that supports the IEEE 802.1AB and MED extensions defined by TIA-1057 and can relay IEEE 802 frames via any method.

•LLDP-MED Endpoint Device Definition:

LLDP-MED Endpoint Devices, as defined in TIA-1057, are located at the IEEE 802 LAN network edge, and participate in IP communication service using the LLDP-MED framework.

Within the LLDP-MED Endpoint Device category, the LLDP-MED scheme is broken into further Endpoint Device Classes, as defined in the following. Each LLDP-MED Endpoint Device Class is defined to build upon the capabilities defined for the previous Endpoint Device Class. For example will any LLDP-MED Endpoint Device claiming compliance as a Media Endpoint (Class II) also support all aspects of TIA-1057 applicable to Generic Endpoints (Class I), and any LLDP-MED Endpoint Device claiming compli- ance as a Communication Device (Class III) will also support all aspects of TIA-1057 applicable to both Media Endpoints (Class II) and Generic Endpoints (Class I).
