NOTE
This feature applies to applications that have specific real-time network policy requirements, such as
interactive voice or video services. It is not intended to run on links other than between Network
Connectivity devices and Endpoints, and therefore does not advertise the multitude of network policies
that frequently run on an aggregated link.
To define an LLDP-MED network policy for an Endpoint, enter a command such as the following.
device(config)#lldp med network-policy application voice tagged vlan 99 priority 3
dscp 22 port e 2/6
The network policy advertisement will appear similar to the following on the remote device, and in the
CLI display output on the Brocade device (
show lldp local-info
).
+ MED Network Policy
Application Type : Voice
Policy Flags : Known Policy, Tagged
VLAN ID : 99
L2 Priority : 3
DSCP Value : 22
NOTE
Endpoints will advertise a policy as "unknown" in the
show lldp neighbor detail
command output, if it
is a policy that is required by the Endpoint and the Endpoint has not yet received it.

Application type can be one of the following:
•
guest-voice
- Limited voice service for guest users and visitors with their own IP telephony handsets
or similar devices that support interactive voice services.
•
guest-voice-signaling
- Limited voice service for use in network topologies that require a different
policy for guest voice signaling than for guest voice media.
•
softphone-voice
- Softphone voice service for use with multi-media applications that work in
association with VoIP technology, enabling phone calls direct from a PC or laptop. Softphones do not
