Configuring for Network Management Applications

LLDP (Link-Layer Discovery Protocol)

delay interval delays the port’s ability to reinitialize and generate LLDP traffic following an LLDP disable/enable cycle.

Syntax setmib lldpReinitDelay.0 -i < 1 - 10 >

Uses setmib to change the minimum time (reinitialization delay interval) an LLDP port will wait before reinitializing after receiving an LLDP disable command followed closely by

atxonly or tx_rx command. The delay interval commences with execution of the lldp admin-status < port-list > disable command. (Default: 2 seconds; Range: 1 - 10 seconds)

For example, the following command changes the reinitialization delay interval to five seconds:

ProCurve(config)# setmib lldpreinitdelay.0 -i 5

Configuring SNMP Notification Support

You can enable SNMP trap notification of LLDP data changes detected on advertisements received from neighbor devices, and control the interval between successive notifications of data changes on the same neighbor.

Enabling LLDP Data Change Notification for SNMP Trap Receivers.

Syntax [ no ] lldp enable-notification < port-list>

Enables or disables each port in < port-list > for sending notification to configured SNMP trap receiver(s) if an LLDP data change is detected in an advertisement received on the port from an LLDP neighbor. (Default: Disabled)

For information on configuring trap receivers in the switch, refer to “SNMP Notifications” on page 13-17.

For example, this command enables SNMP notification on ports 1 - 5:

ProCurve(config)# lldp enable-notification 1-5
