-LLDP
-----
-
-The Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is a vendor-neutral
-link layer protocol in the Internet Protocol Suite used by network devices for
-advertising their identity, capabilities, and neighbors on an IEEE 802 local
-area network, principally wired Ethernet.[1] The protocol is formally referred
-to by the IEEE as Station and Media Access Control Connectivity Discovery
-specified in IEEE 802.1AB and IEEE 802.3-2012 section 6 clause 79.
-
-LLDP performs functions similar to several proprietary protocols, such as
-`Cisco Discovery Protocol`_, `Foundry Discovery Protocol`_,
-Nortel Discovery Protocol and Link Layer Topology Discovery.
-
-Information gathered
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Information gathered with LLDP is stored in the device as a management
-information database (MIB_) and can be queried with the Simple Network
-Management Protocol (SNMP_) as specified in RFC 2922. The topology of an
-LLDP-enabled network can be discovered by crawling the hosts and querying this
-database. Information that may be retrieved include:
-
-* System name and description
-* Port name and description
-* VLAN name
-* IP management address
-* System capabilities (switching, routing, etc.)
-* MAC/PHY information
-* MDI power
-* Link aggregation
-
-Configuration
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-* Enable service with:
-
- :code:`set service lldp`
-
-Options
-*******
-
-* Configure a Define management-address:
-
- :code:`set service lldp management-address <x.x.x.x>`
-
-* Define listening interfaces
-
- :code:`set service lldp interface <all|interface name>`
-
-* LLDPd also implements an SNMP subagent. To Enable SNMP queries of the LLDP
- database:
-
- :code:`set service lldp snmp enable`
-
-* Enable optional/other protocols
-
- :code:`set service lldp legacy-protocols cdp`
-
- Supported legacy protocols:
-
- * ``cdp`` - Listen for CDP for Cisco routers/switches
- * ``edp`` - Listen for EDP for Extreme routers/switches
- * ``fdp`` - Listen for FDP for Foundry routers/switches
- * ``sonmp`` - Listen for SONMP for Nortel routers/switches
-
-
-Display neighbors
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-* Display with:
-
-``show lldp neighbors``
-
-Exemple:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- vyos@vyos:~# show lldp neighbors
- Capability Codes: R - Router, B - Bridge, W - Wlan r - Repeater, S - Station
- D - Docsis, T - Telephone, O - Other
- Device ID Local Proto Cap Platform Port ID

- swA309 eth0 LLDP ? Cisco IOS Software, GigE0/33
-
-
-* Options:
-
- * ``detail`` - Show lldp neighbors detail
- * ``interface`` - Show LLDP for specified interface
-
-Troubleshooting
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Use operational command ``show log lldp`` to display logs.
