6.1.9.2 LLDP MED Neighbors
This page provides a status overview of all LLDP-MED neighbors. The displayed table contains a row
for each port on which an LLDP neighbor is detected. This function applies to VoIP devices which
support LLDP-MED. The columns hold the following information:
Port
The port on which the LLDP frame was received.
Device Type
LLDP-MED Devices are composed of two primary
Device Types
: Network Connectivity Devices and
Endpoint Devices.
LLDP-MED Network Connectivity Device Definition
LLDP-MED Network Connectivity Devices, as defined in TIA-1057, provide access to the IEEE
802-based LAN infrastructure for LLDP-MED Endpoint Devices. An LLDP-MED Network Connectivity
Device is a LAN access device based on any of the following technologies:
1. LAN Switch / Router
2. IEEE 802.1 Bridge
3. IEEE 802.3 Repeater ( included for historical reasons )
4. IEEE 802.11 Wireless Access Point
5. Any device that supports the IEEE 802.1AB and MED extentions defined by TIA-1057 and can relay
IEEE 802 frames via any method.
