Siklu - Etherhaul LLDP

Edited

Description:

The Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is a unidirectional neighbour discovery protocol (as per IEEE 802.1AB).

 

LLDP enables the discovery of accurate physical network topologies, meaning which devices are neighbours and through which ports they connect. It enables the system to discover other network elements that are connected to it, including the discovery of third-party network elements and enables easier integration of links in an LLDP supported networks.

 

How to fix: 

By default, LLDP is enabled on the radio port (Eth 0) and are disabled on the Ethernet ports.

If you disable LLDP on all ports, including the radio, this will pass the LLDP packets transparently over the radio.

If you configure a port to rx-tx this will enable LLDP on that port, or rx / tx for uni directional only traffic.

You can select a VLAN that the LLDP messages will be sent on under the VID settings, default is non (untagged).

Viewing LLDP configuration

Configuring LLDP
