Organizational Specific Unrecognized LLDP TLVs
The type value for organizational specific TLV is 127.
The system processes each LLDP frame to retrieve the OUI, subtype, and data length, and stores the retrieved data of organizational
specific unrecognized LLDP TLVs in a list. The stored list of organizational TLVs is removed when the neighbor is lost or neighbor ages
out. The software assigns a temporary identification index for each unrecognized organizational specific LLDP TLVs upon receiving more
than one TLV with the same OUI and subtype, but with different organizationally defined information strings.
NOTE:
The system increments the TLV discard counter and does not store unrecognized LLDP TLV information in following
scenarios:
• If there are multiple TLVs with the same information is received
• If DCBX is down on the receiving interface
The organizational specific TLV list is limited to store 256 entries per neighbor. If TLV entries are more than 256, then the oldest entry (of
that neighbor) in the list is replaced. A syslog message appears when the organization specific unrecognized TLV list exceeds more than
205 entries (80 percent of 256) for you to take action. Following shows the syslog message:
Nov 14 03:01:53 %STKUNIT2-M:CP %LLDP-5-LLDP_ORG_UNRECOGNISED_TLV_MAX: Received Organizational
Specific unrecognised TLVs exceeds threshold (205) from Remote Chassis ID: 4c:76:25:f4:ab:00,
Remote Port ID: fortyGigE 1/2/8/1 on interface: Te 2/31/1
Viewing Unrecognized LLDP TLVs
You can view or retrieve the stored unrecognized (reserved and organizational specific) TLVs using the show lldp neighbor
details command.
View all the LLDP TLV information including unrecognized TLVs, using the snmpwalk and snmpget commands.
