Setup Guide

The software assigns a temporary identication index for each unrecognized organizational specic LLDP TLVs upon receiving more than
one TLV with the same OUI and subtype, but with dierent organizationally dened 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 specic 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 specic 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 specic) TLVs using the show lldp neighbor
details command.
View all the LLDP TLV information including unrecognized TLVs, using the snmpwalk and snmpget commands.
Viewing the LLDP Conguration
To view the LLDP conguration, use the following command.
• Display the LLDP conguration.
