lldp tlv-enable dot3-tlv

Function

The lldp tlv-enable dot3-tlv command sets to advertise the TLVs defined by the IEEE 802.3 working group.

The undo lldp tlv-enable dot3-tlv command sets the TLVs defined by the IEEE 802.3 working group disabled on an interface.

By default, an interface advertises all TLVs defined by the IEEE 802.3 working group.

Format

lldp tlv-enable dot3-tlv { all | eee | link-aggregation | mac-physic | max-frame-size | power }

undo lldp tlv-enable dot3-tlv { all | eee | link-aggregation | mac-physic | max-frame-size | power }

Parameters

Parameter	Description	Value
all	Indicates to advertise all TLVs defined by the IEEE 802.3 working group.	-
eee	Indicates to advertise EEE (Energy Efficient Ethernet) TLV. EEE is supported only when the switch has only one neighbor.	-
link-aggregation	Indicates to advertise Link Aggregation TLV.	-
mac-physic	Indicates to advertise MAC/PHY Configuration/Status TLV.	-
max-frame-size	Indicates to advertise Maximum Frame Size TLV.	-
power	Indicates to advertise Power Via MDI TLV.	-

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

In LLDP, all device information is encapsulated in Link Layer Discovery Protocol data units (LLDPDUs), which are then sent to neighbors. An LLDPDU contains a variety of TLVs. In a TLV, T indicates the information type, L indicates the information length, and V indicates the value or the content to be sent.

Devices exchange LLDPDUs carrying TLVs to obtain neighbor information. The TLVs that can be encapsulated in an LLDP packet include basic TLVs, TLVs in the IEEE 802.1 format, TLVs in the IEEE 802.3 format, and MED TLVs.

Basic TLVs are essential for managing network devices. The TLVs in the IEEE 802.1 format, TLVs in the IEEE 802.3 format, and MED TLVs are defined by standardization organizations and other organizations, which are used to enhance the network device management. You can determine whether to advertise the IEEE 802.1 format, TLVs in the IEEE 802.3 format, and MED TLVs.

Devices on both ends can have different TLV types configured. You only need to configure TLV types according to networking requirements.

Prerequisites

LLDP has been enabled globally using the lldp enable command.
LLDP has been enabled on the interface using the lldp enable command.

Precautions

If the all parameter is not specified, only one type of TLV can be advertised. To advertise multiple types of TLVs, run this command multiple times.

An Ethernet interface supports this command no matter whether it works in Layer 2 or Layer 3 mode.

Example

# Configure GigabitEthernet0/0/1 to advertise the Link Aggregation TLV in the IEEE 802.3 format.
