History
Version 9.4(0.0) Introduced on the S4810, S4820T, S6000, Z9000, and MXL
Switch.
Usage
Information
The configuration is cached and sent to LLDP only in one of the following
conditions:
1) The port-channel connecting the two VLT domains, across DC, must be a VLT
LAG
2) The protocol lldp command is globally enabled
3) The proxy-gateway LLDP configuration is applied.
However, “proxy-gateway lldp” configuration is sent to the Layer 2 application.
When LLDP sends an IPC reply message, SWPQ is created towards LLDP to send
further updates to LLDP. When the proxy gateway peer-domain-link port-channel
command is provisioned, the configuration is sent to LLDP if the port-channel is a
VLT port-channel. However it will not check whether the port-channel is up or
down. LLDP determines the addition and removal of LAG ports and transmits LLDP
packets out accordingly.
