LLDP configuration
Maximum number of LLDP neighbors
You can change the limit of the number of LLDP neighbors for which LLDP data will be retained, per
device as well as per port.
Specifying the maximum number of
LLDP neighbors per device
You can change the maximum number of neighbors for which LLDP data will be retained for the
entire system.
For example, to change the maximum number of LLDP neighbors for the entire device to 26, enter
the following command.
Brocade(config)#lldp max-total-neighbors 26
Syntax: [no] lldp max-total-neighbors <value>
Use the [no] form of the command to remove the static configuration and revert to the default
value of 392.
where <value> is a number between 16 and 8192. The default number of LLDP neighbors per
device is 392.
Use the show lldp command to view the configuration.
Specifying the maximum number of
LLDP neighbors per port
You can change the maximum number of LLDP neighbors for which LLDP data will be retained for
each port. By default, the maximum number is four and you can change this to a value between
one and 64.
For example, to change the maximum number of LLDP neighbors to six, enter the following
command.
Brocade(config)#lldp max-neighbors-per-port 6
Syntax: [no] lldp max-neighbors-per-port <value>
Use the [no] form of the command to remove the static configuration and revert to the default
value of four.
where <value> is a number from 1 to 64. The default is number of LLDP neighbors per port is four.
Use the show lldp command to view the configuration.
Enabling LLDP SNMP notifications and Syslog messages
SNMP notifications and Syslog messages for LLDP provide management applications with
information related to MIB data updates and general status.
When you enable LLDP SNMP notifications, corresponding Syslog messages are enabled as well.
When you enable LLDP SNMP notifications, the device will send traps and corresponding Syslog
messages whenever there are changes to the LLDP data received from neighboring devices.
