Example coordinate-based location configuration
The following shows an example coordinate-based location configuration for the Sears Tower, at the
following location.
103rd Floor
233 South Wacker Drive
Chicago, IL 60606
The above configuration shows the following:
• Latitude is 41.87884 degrees north (or 41.87884 degrees).
• Longitude is 87.63602 degrees west (or 87.63602 degrees).
• The latitude and longitude resolution of 18 describes a geo-location area that is latitude
41.8769531 to latitude 41.8789062 and extends from -87.6367188 to -87.6347657 degrees
longitude. This is an area of approximately 373412 square feet (713.3 ft. x 523.5 ft.).
• The location is inside a structure, on the 103rd floor.
• The WGS 84 map was used as the basis for calculating the location.
Example coordinate-based location advertisement
The coordinate-based location advertisement will appear similar to the following on the remote
device, and in the CLI display output on the Brocade device (show lldp local-info).
Configuring civic address location
When you configure a media Endpoint location using the address-based location, you specify the
location the entry refers to, the country code, and the elements that describe the civic or postal
address.
To configure a civic address-based location for LLDP-MED, enter commands such as the following
at the Global CONFIG level of the CLI.
Brocade(config)#lldp med location-id civic-address refers-to client country US
elem 1 CA elem 3 “Santa Clara” elem 6 “4980 Great America Pkwy” elem 24 95054 elem
27 5 elem 28 551 elem 29 office elem 23 “John Doe”
Syntax: [no] lldp med location-id civic-address refers-to elem country country code elem CA type
value [elem CA type value] [elem CA type value]....
refers-to elem describes the location that the entry refers to. Specify one of the following:
Brocade(config)#lldp med location-id coordinate-based latitude 41.87884
