Set the CDP compatibility of LLDP:

 

 

Disable—Neither sends nor receives CDPDUs.

 

 

TxRx—Sends and receives CDPDUs.

 

CDP Operating Mode

IMPORTANT:

 

 

 

 

To enable LLDP to be compatible with CDP on the port, you must

 

 

enable CDP compatibility on the Global Setup tab and set the

 

 

CDP operating mode on the port to TxRx.

 

 

Enable LLDP polling and set the polling interval.

 

 

If no polling interval is set, LLDP polling is disabled.

 

LLDP Polling Interval

With the polling mechanism, LLDP periodically detects local

 

 

 

 

configuration changes. If a configuration change is detected,

 

 

an LLDPDU is sent to inform the LLDP neighbors of the change.

 

 

 

 

 

Set the enable status of the LLDP trapping function on the port or

 

 

ports.

 

 

LLDP trapping is used to report to the network management

 

 

station critical events such as new neighbor devices detected

 

LLDP Trapping

and link failures.

 

 

IMPORTANT:

 

 

To avoid excessive traps from being sent when topology is

 

 

instable, you can tune the minimum trap transit interval on the

 

 

Global Setup tab.
