User Manual Managed Switches

From the switch's web interface, users have the option of either enabling or disabling the LLDP, as
well as setting the LLDP transmit interval (as shown in the figure below). In addition, users are able to
view each switch's neighbor-list, which is reported by its network neighbors. Most importantly,
enabling the LLDP function allows a Network Management Software to automatically display the
network's topology as well as system setup details such as VLAN, and Trunking for the entire
network.
