Link Layer Discovery Protocol
Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is used to discover basic information about
neighboring devices on the local broadcast domain. LLDP is a Layer 2 protocol that uses
periodic broadcasts to advertise information about the sending device. Advertised
information is represented in Type Length Value (TLV) format according to the IEEE
802.1ab standard, and can include details such as device identification, capabilities and
configuration settings. LLDP also defines how to store and maintain information gathered
about the neighboring network nodes it discovers.
Link Layer Discovery Protocol - Media Endpoint Discovery (LLDP-MED) is an extension
of LLDP intended for managing endpoint devices such as Voice over IP phones and
network switches. The LLDP-MED TLVs advertise information such as network policy,
power, inventory, and device location details. LLDP and LLDP-MED information can be
used by SNMP applications to simplify troubleshooting, enhance network management,
and maintain an accurate network topology.
