Service Location Protocol Configuration
Service Location Protocol (SLP) enables networked devices to request/announce
services over a local area network without prior configuration. In an SLP
environment, devices may have the following roles:
 User Agents (UA) are devices requesting services.
 Service Agents (SA) are devices providing services.
 Directory Agents (DA) are devices caching services provided by SAs. When
present in an SLA setup, DAs mediate all communication between UAs and
SAs.
When SLP is enabled, the RackSwitch G8332 behaves as a Service Agent providing
systems management services.
