NOTE: LLDP-MED is not intended to run on links other than between Network Connectivity
Devices and Endpoints, so it does not need to advertise the multitude of network policies that
frequently run on an aggregated link interior to the LAN.
Delete :
Check to delete the policy. It will be deleted during the next save.
Policy ID :
ID for the policy. This is auto generated and shall be used when selecting the polices that
will be mapped to the specific ports.
Application Type :
Intended use of the application types:
1. Voice - for use by dedicated IP Telephony handsets and other similar appliances
supporting interactive voice services. These devices are typically deployed on a separate
VLAN for ease of deployment and enhanced security by isolation from data applications.
2. Voice Signalling (conditional) - for use in network topologies that require a different
policy for the voice signalling than for the voice media. This application type should not be
advertised if all the same network policies apply as those advertised in the Voice
application policy.
3. Guest Voice - support a separate “limited feature-set” voice service for guest users and
visitors with their own IP Telephony handsets and other similar appliances supporting
interactive voice services.
4. Guest Voice Signalling (conditional) - for use in network topologies that require a
different policy for the guest voice signalling than for the guest voice media. This
application type should not be advertised if all the same network policies apply as those
advertised in the Guest Voice application policy.
5. Softphone Voice - for use by softphone applications on typical data centric devices, such
as PCs or laptops. This class of endpoints frequently does not support multiple VLANs, if at
all, and are typically configured to use an “untagged” VLAN or a single “tagged” data
specific VLAN. When a network policy is defined for use with an “untagged” VLAN (see
Tagged flag below), then the L2 priority field is ignored and only the DSCP value is
relevant.
6. Video Conferencing - for use by dedicated Video Conferencing equipment and other
similar appliances supporting real-time interactive video/audio services.
7. Streaming Video - for use by broadcast or multicast based video content distribution and
other similar applications supporting streaming video services that require specific network
policy treatment. Video applications relying on TCP with buffering would not be an intended
use of this application type.
8. Video Signalling (conditional) - for use in network topologies that require a separate
policy for the video signalling than for the video media. This application type should not be
advertised if all the same network policies apply as those advertised in the Video
Conferencing application policy.
Tag :
Tag indicating whether the specified application type is using a “tagged” or an “untagged”
VLAN.
Untagged indicates that the device is using an untagged frame format and does not include
a tag header as defined by IEEE 802.1Q-2003. In this case, both the VLAN ID and the
Layer 2 priority fields are ignored and only the DSCP value is relevant.
Tagged indicates that the device is using the IEEE 802.1Q tagged frame format, and that
both the VLAN ID and the Layer 2 priority values are being used, as well as the DSCP
value. The tagged format includes an additional field, known as the tag header. The tagged
frame format also includes priority tagged frames as defined by IEEE 802.1Q-2003.
VLAN ID :
VLAN identifier (VID) for the port as defined in IEEE 802.1Q-2003.
