About LLDP and LLDP-MED

This section contains this conceptual information:

•Understanding LLDP

•Understanding LLDP-MED

Understanding LLDP

The Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) is a device discovery protocol that runs over Layer 2 (the data link layer) on all Cisco-manufactured devices (routers, bridges, access servers, and switches). CDP allows network management applications to automatically discover and learn about other Cisco devices connected to the network.

To support non-Cisco devices and to allow for interoperability between other devices, the switch supports the IEEE 802.1AB LLDP. LLDP is a neighbor discovery protocol that is used for network devices to advertise information about themselves to other devices on the network. This protocol runs over the data-link layer, which allows two systems running different network layer protocols to learn about each other.

LLDP supports a set of attributes that it uses to discover neighbor devices. These attributes contain type, length, and value descriptions and are referred to as TLVs. LLDP supported devices can use TLVs to receive and send information to their neighbors. Details such as configuration information, device capabilities, and device identity can be advertised using this protocol.

The switch supports the following basic management TLVs, which are optional:

•Port description TLV

•System name TLV

•System description TLV

•System capabilities TLV

• Management address TLV

•Power Management TLV

These organizationally specific LLDP TLVs are also advertised to support LLDP-MED.

•Port VLAN ID TLV ((IEEE 802.1 organizationally specific TLVs)

•MAC/PHY configuration/status TLV(IEEE 802.3 organizationally specific TLVs)

Understanding LLDP-MED

LLDP for Media Endpoint Devices (LLDP-MED) is an extension to LLDP that operates between endpoint devices such as IP phones and network devices such as switches. It specifically provides support for voice over IP (VoIP) applications and provides additional TLVs for capabilities discovery, network policy, Power over Ethernet, inventory management, and location information. By default, all LLDP-MED TLVs are enabled.

LLDP-MED supports these TLVs:

•LLDP-MED capabilities TLV

Allows LLDP-MED endpoints to determine the capabilities that the connected device supports and what capabilities the device has enabled.

•Network policy TLV

Allows both network connectivity devices and endpoints to advertise VLAN configurations and associated Layer 2 and Layer 3 attributes for the specific application on that port. For example, the switch can notify a phone of the VLAN number that it should use. The phone can connect into any switch, obtain its VLAN number, and then start communicating with the call control

•Power management TLV

Enables advanced power management between LLDP-MED endpoint and network connectivity devices. Allows switches and phones to convey power information, such as how the device is powered, power priority, and how much power the device needs.

Note Power Management TLV only exchanges power information; it does not perform power negotiation, which is handled by CDP.

•Inventory management TLV

Allows an endpoint to send detailed inventory information about itself to the switch, including information hardware revision, firmware version, software version, serial number, manufacturer name, model name, and asset ID TLV.

•Location TLV

Provides location information from the switch to the endpoint device. The location TLV can send this information:

–Civic location information

Provides the civic address information and postal information. Examples of civic location information are street address, road name, and postal community name information.

–ELIN location information

Provides the location information for a caller. The location is determined by the Emergency location identifier number (ELIN), which is a phone number that routes an emergency call to the local public safety answering point (PSAP) and which the PSAP can use to call back the emergency caller.

Note A switch cannot send LLDP and LLDP-MED simultaneously to an end-point device. By default, a network device sends only LLDP packets until it receives LLDP-MED packets from an end-point device. The network device then sends LLDP-MED packets until it receives only LLDP packets.

Configuring LLDP Characteristics

You can configure the frequency of LLDP updates, the amount of time to hold the information before discarding it, the initialization delay time. You can also select the LLDP and LLDP-MED TLVs for sending and receiving. The location service feature is available only when the switch is running the cryptographic (encrypted) software image.

To configure these characteristics, perform this task:

Note Steps 2 through 5 can be performed in any order.

 
Command
Purpose

Step 1  

Switch# configure terminal

Enters global configuration mode.

Step 2  

Switch(config)# lldp holdtime 
seconds

(Optional) Specifies the amount of time a receiving device should hold the information sent by your device before discarding it.

The range is 0 to 65535 seconds; the default is 120 seconds.

Step 3  

Switch(config)# lldp reinit

(Optional) Specific the delay time in seconds for LLDP to initialize on any interface.

The range is 2 to 5 seconds; the default is 2 seconds.

Step 4  

Switch(config)# lldp timer seconds

(Optional) Sets the transmission frequency of LLDP updates in seconds.

The range is 5 to 65534 seconds; the default is 30 seconds.

Step 5  

Switch(config)# lldp tlv-select

(Optional) Specifies the LLDP TLVs to send or receive.

Step 6  

Switch(config)# copy running-config 
startup-config

Saves your entries in the configuration file.

Step 7  

Switch(config)# lldp med-tlv-select

(Optional) Specifies the LLDP-MED TLVs to send or receive.

Note Use the no form of each of the LLDP commands to return to the default setting.

This example shows how to configure a holdtime of 120 second, a delay time of 2 seconds and an update frequency of 30: 

Switch# configure terminal

Switch(config)# lldp holdtime 120

Switch(config)# lldp reinit 2

Switch(config)# lldp timer 30

Switch(config)# end

 
   
 
    
   
 This example shows how to transmit only LLDP packets: 
 
    
   
 
    
switch# configure terminal

 
   
 
    
   
 
    
siwtch(config)# no lldp receive

 
   
 
    
   
 
    
switch(config)# end

 
   
 
    
   
 
    
 
   
 
    
   
 If you want to receive LLDP packets again, do the following: 
 
    
   
 
    
switch# configure terminal

 
   
 
    
   
 
    
siwtch(config)# lldp receive

 
   
 
    
   
 
    
switch(config)# end

 Disabling and Enabling LLDP on an Interface 
 
    
   
 LLDP is disabled globally on all supported interfaces. You must enable LLDP globally to allow a device to send LLDP packets. However, no changes are required at the interface level. 
 
    
   
 You can configure the interface to selectively not to send and receive LLDP packets with the 
no lldp transmit and no lldp receive commands. 
 
   
 
     
   
 
   
 
    
   
 Note If the interface is configured as a tunnel port, LLDP is automatically disabled. 
 
   
 
    
   
 To disable LLDP on an interface, perform this task:

Switch(config-if)# end

 
   
 
     
    
    
    
   
 Configuring LLDP-MED TLVs 
 
    
   
 By default, the switch only sends LLDP packets until it receives LLDP-MED packets from the end device. The switch continues to send LLDP-MED packets until it only receives LLDP packets. 
 
    
   
 By using the lldp interface configuration command, you can configure the interface not to send the TLVs listed in Table 24-2.

 Configuring LLDP Power Negotiation 
 
    
   
 Starting with Cisco IOS Release 12.2(54)SG, Catalyst 4500 series switches can perform inline power negotiation using LLDP as specified in the IEEE 802.3at standard. (The LLDP TLV used is
DTE Power-via-MDI TLV.) With this feature, inline powered devices based on the IEEE standard can be powered in the PoE+ power range (12.95W to 25.5W at the device end) by the switch on PoE+ supported modules. 
 
   
 
     
   
 
   
 
    
   
 Note To verify inline power utilization negotiated by using LLDP using the LLDP-MED TLV, use the 
show lldp neighbors detail command. To verify inline power utilization negotiated by using the IEEE 802.3at TLV, use the show power inline interface detail command. The show power inline interface detail command does not display power negotiated with LLDP. 
 
   
 
   
 
     
   
 
   
 
    
   
 Note When an inline powered device that performs power negotiation using multiple protocols (CDP/LLDP 802.3at/LLDP-MED) is connected to a switch, the switch "locks" to the first protocol packet (CDP or LLDP) that contains the power negotiation TLV. The LLDP 802.3at power negotiation TLV overrides the LLDP-MED power negotiation TLV if both are received by the switch. If the administrator needs to use any single protocol for power negotiation each time, he needs to administratively disable the other power negotiation protocols on the switch interface or the end device. 
 
   
 
    
   
 To enable LLDP power negotiation, perform this task:
