LLDP (Link Layer Discover Protocol), it provides a method for switches, routers and access points to
advertise their identification, configuration and capabilities to neighboring devices that store the data
in a MIB, and to learn information about neighboring devices.
LLDP-MED (Link Layer Discovery Protocol for Media Endpoint Devices) is an extension to LLDP
that operates between endpoint devices such as IP phones or switches.
LLDP-Media Endpoint Discovery (LLDP-MED) is an enhancement to LLDP with the following
features:
Auto Discovery: Autodiscovery of LAN policies (such as VLAN, Layer 2 priority, and DiffServ
settings) and capability to enable a plug and play networking.
Device Location: Device location discovery for the creation of location databases.
Power Management: Extended and automated power management of Power over Ethernet
(PoE) endpoints.
Inventory Management: Inventory management, which lets network administrators track
network devices and determine their characteristics such as the manufacturer, software and
hardware versions, and serial and asset numbers.
