CHAPTER 14
Monitor: LLDP
14.1 Overview

Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP), defined as IEEE 802.1ab, enables LAN devices that support
LLDP to exchange their configured settings. This helps eliminate configuration mismatch issues.

maintain and store information from adjacent devices which are directly connected to the network
device.
