The number of LLDP frames transmitted on the port.

TLVs Discarded
Each LLDP frame can contain multiple pieces of information, known as TLVs (TLV is
short for "Type Length Value"). If a TLV is malformed, it is counted and discarded.


Ports
The displayed table contains a row for each port. The columns hold the following
information:



Neighbors Added
Shows the number of new entries added since switch reboot.

Neighbors Deleted


Frames Discarded
If an LLDP frame is received on a port, and the switch's internal table has run full, the
LLDP frame is counted and discarded. This situation is known as "Too Many
Neighbors" in the LLDP standard. LLDP frames require a new entry in the table when
the Chassis ID or Remote Port ID is not already contained within the table. Entries
are removed from the table when a given port's link is down, an LLDP shutdown
frame is received, or when the entry ages out.

Frames Received In Error


Frames In


Frames Out
