Configuring LLDP
LLDP (Linker Layer Discovery Protocol) is a vendor-neutral Link Layer protocol, which allows systems to
receive and/or transmit device-related information from/to directly connected devices on the network that
are also using the protocol , and store the information about other devices.
When LLDP feature is enabled on systems, the systems periodically advertise their own information to the
directly connected LLDP-enabled switch. The systems can also receive LLDP packets from the connected
switch and obtain their VLAN IDs, and then start communications with the call control. The switch assigns
a VLAN ID to the endpoint through the LLDP protocol.
