Field Description
LLDP Enable Select to enable or disable the AP from broadcasting LLDP
information. LLDP is disabled by default.
Announcement Interval[s] Enter the time (in seconds) between successive LLDP packets
that the AP advertises.
If changes to the AP’s configuration do not impact the LLDP
i
nformation, the AP sends a new LLDP packet according to this
a
nnouncement interval setting. You can enter an interval between
5 and 32,768 seconds. The default interval is 30.
Announcement Delay[s] The length of time (in seconds) that new packet delivery is
delayed.
If a change to the AP configuration occurs which impacts the
LLDP information,
the AP sends an updated LLDP packet. The
announcement delay is the length of time that delays the new
packet delivery. The delay provides an opportunity for any other
potential configuration changes to be included in the same packet
delivery. The announcement delay helps minimize LLDP packet
traffic. Set the Announcement Delay to a value up to 1/4 the value
of the Announcement Interval. For example, if the Announcement
Interval is set to 32,768, you can set the Announcement Delay up
to 8192. The default delay is 2.
Time to Live Displays how long (in seconds) the
receiving device considers the
previously sent information packet to be accurate.
The Ti
me to Live value is sent in each LLDP packet. The
receiving LLDP device retains the information from the LLDP
packet for the duration of the Time to Live value. If no other LLDP
packets arrive after that period, the information is considered stale
and then discarded.
The AP software calculates Time to Li
ve value as four times the
Announcement Interval value.
