Configuring Cisco Discovery Protocol

Configuring Cisco Discovery Protocol

Purpose

To review and configure the Cisco discovery protocol. Discovery protocols are used to discover network topology. When enabled, they allow Cisco devices to send periodic PDUs about themselves to neighboring devices. Specifically, this feature enables recognizing PDUs from Cisco phones. A table of information about detected phones is kept by the switch and can be queried by the network administrator.
