The lldp management-address command configures the LLDP management IP address.
The undo lldp management-address command restores the default setting.
By default, the system automatically obtains the management IP address.

Usage Scenario
The management IP address is carried in the management address TLV field of the LLDP packet. It is used by the NMS to identify and manage devices. A management address identifies a device, facilitating the layout of the network topology and network management. To allocate a management address to a neighbor, run the lldp management-address command.
Prerequisites
LLDP has been enabled globally using the lldp enable (system view) command.
The management IP address to be allocated must be a valid unicast IP address existing on the device.
Configuration Impact
After the configuration, the management IP address is added to the management address TLV field of the LLDP packet. The NMS then identifies the device according to the management IP address.
Precautions
If no management address is configured or an invalid management address is configured, the system sets an IP address in the address list as the management address. The system selects the IP address in the following sequence: iMaster NCE-Campus's IP address, loopback interface address, management port address, VLANIF interface address, VBDIF interface address, Layer 3 Ethernet interface address, and Sub-interface. Among the IP addresses of the same type, the system selects the smallest one. If the system fails to find a management IP address, the bridge MAC address is used as the management address.
