Link Layer Discovery Protocol
– 161 –
The management address TLV may also include information about the
specific interface associated with this address, and an object identifier
indicating the type of hardware component or protocol entity associated
with this address. The interface number and OID are included to assist
SNMP applications in the performance of network discovery by
indicating enterprise specific or other starting points for the search,
such as the Interface or Entity MIB.
Since there are typically a number of different addresses associated
with a Layer 3 device, an individual LLDP PDU may contain more than
one management address TLV.
