3.8.4 LLDP-MED Neighbors
This section provides a status overview of all LLDP-MED neighbors. The table contains a row for each port on which an LLDP
neighbor is detected. This function applies to VoIP devices that support LLDP-MED.
Web Interface
To show LLDP-MED neighbor:
1. Click LLDP-MED Neighbor.
2. Click Refresh for manual update Web screen.
3. Click Auto-refresh for auto-update Web screen.
Figure 3-46: The LLDP-MED Neighbor Information screen
NOTE: If your network supports LLDPMED without any devices, then the table will show “No LLDP-MED neighbor information
found”.
Parameter Description
• Port: The port on which the LLDP frame was received.
• Device Type:
- LLDP-MED Devices are comprised of two primary Device Types: Network Connectivity Devices and Endpoint Devices.
- LLDP-MED Network Connectivity Devices, as defined in TIA-1057, provide access to the IEEE 802-based LAN infrastructure for
LLDP-MED Endpoint Devices. An LLDP-MED Network Connectivity Device is a LAN access device based on any of the following
technologies:
1. LAN Switch/Router
2. IEEE 802.1 Bridge
3. IEEE 802.3 Repeater (included for historical reasons)
4. IEEE 802.11 Wireless Access Point
5. Any device that supports the IEEE 802.1AB and MED extensions defined by TIA-1057 and can relay IEEE 802 frames via any
method.
• LLDP-MED Endpoint Device Definition:
LLDP-MED Endpoint Devices, as defined in TIA-1057, are located at the IEEE 802 LAN network edge, and participate in IP
communication service using the LLDP-MED framework.
Within the LLDP-MED Endpoint Device category, the LLDP-MED scheme is broken into further Endpoint Device Classes, as
defined in the following. Each LLDP-MED Endpoint Device Class is defined to build upon the capabilities defined for the previous
Endpoint Device Class. For example will any LLDP-MED Endpoint Device claiming compliance as a Media Endpoint (Class II) also
support all aspects of TIA-1057 applicable to Generic Endpoints (Class I), and any LLDP-MED Endpoint Device claiming compli-
ance as a Communication Device (Class III) will also support all aspects of TIA-1057 applicable to both Media Endpoints (Class II)
and Generic Endpoints (Class I).
