Step Command Remarks
4. Configure the encoding
format of the management
address as a character string.
lldp management-address-format
string
Optional.
By default, the management
address is encapsulated in numeric
format.
Setting other LLDP parameters
The Time to Live TLV carried in an LLDPDU determines how long the device information carried in the
LLDPDU can be saved on a recipient device.
By setting the TTL multiplier, you can configure the TTL of locally sent LLDPDUs, which determines how
long information about the local device can be saved on a neighboring device. The TTL is calculated with
the following formula:
TTL = Min (65535, (TTL multiplier × LLDPDU transmit interval))
As shown in the expression, the TTL can be up to 65535 seconds. TTLs greater than 65535 will be
rounded down to 65535 seconds.
Configuration restrictions and guidelines
• To make sure that LLDP neighbors can receive LLDPDUs to update information about the current
device before it ages out, configure both the LLDPDU transmit delay to be less than the TTL.
• It is a good practice to set the LLDPDU transmit interval to be no less than four times the LLDPDU
transmit delay.
• If the LLDPDU transmit delay is greater than the LLDPDU transmit interval, the device uses the
LLDPDU transmit delay as the transmit interval.
