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 +:abbr:`CDP (Cisco Discovery Protocol)`, :abbr:`FDP (Foundry Discovery Protocol)`, +:abbr:`NDP (Nortel Discovery Protocol)` and :abbr:`LLTD (Link Layer Topology +Discovery)`. + +Information gathered with LLDP is stored in the device as a :abbr:`MIB +(Management Information Database)` and can be queried with :abbr:`SNMP (Simple +Network Management Protocol)` as specified in :rfc:`2922`. The topology of an +LLDP-enabled network can be discovered by crawling the hosts and querying this +database.
