Advertising TLVs
You can configure the system to advertise TLVs out of all interfaces or out of specific interfaces.
If you configure the system globally, all interfaces send LLDPDUs with the specified TLVs.
If you configure an interface, only the interface sends LLDPDUs with the specified TLVs.
If you configure LLDP both globally and at interface level, the interface level configuration overrides the global configuration.
To advertise TLVs, use the following commands.
1. Enter LLDP mode.
CONFIGURATION or INTERFACE mode

advertise {dcbx-appln-tlv | dcbx-tlv | dot3-tlv | interface-port-desc | management-tlv |
