Chapter 31 Configuring LLDP, LLDP-MED, and Wired Location Service
How to Configure LLDP, LLDP-MED, and Wired Location Service
• For wired location to function, you must first enter the ip device tracking global configuration
command.
LLDP-MED TLVs
By default, the switch only sends LLDP packets until it receives LLDP-MED packets from the end
device. It then sends LLDP packets with MED TLVs. When the LLDP-MED entry has been aged out, it
only sends LLDP packets.
By using the lldp interface configuration command, you can configure the interface not to send the TLVs
listed in this table.
