Required
Enable LLDP to advertise
management address TLVs
and configure the advertised
management IP address
lldp management-address-tlv
[
ip-address
]
Optional
By default, the management
address is sent through
LLDPDUs, and the
management address is the
main IP address of the
lowest-ID VLAN carried on the
interface. If the VLAN is not
assigned a main IP address,
127.0.0.1 is used.
Setting Other LLDP Parameters
The TTL TLV carried in an LLDPDU determines how long the device information carried in the LLDPDU
can be saved on a recipient device.
You can configure the TTL of locally sent LLDP frames to determine how long information about the
local device can be saved on a neighbor device by setting the TTL multiplier. The TTL is expressed as
follows:
TTL = Min (65535, (TTL multiplier × LLDPDU transmit interval))
As the expression shows, the TTL can be up to 65535 seconds. TTLs greater than it will be rounded
down to 65535 seconds.
Follow these steps to change the TTL multiplier:

Set the number of LLDP frames
sent each time fast LLDPDU
transmission is triggered.
lldp fast-count count
Optional
3 by default
Both the LLDPDU transmit interval and delay must be less than the TTL to ensure that the LLDP
neighbors can receive LLDP frames to update information about the device you are configuring before
it is aged out.
