– Password Strength
For password strength enforcement.
This section allows configuring the following parameters:
Password Min Length - minimum password length (0 to 16 characters). Default is

Password Min Difference - minimum password difference between characters (0
to 5). Default is 1.

LLDP
The Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is a unidirectional neighbor discovery protocol
(as per IEEE 802.1AB).
LLDP performs periodic transmissions of the system's capabilities to the connected
stations. LLDP frames are not forwarded, but are constrained to a single link. The
information distributed by the protocol is stored in a topology data base. This
information can be retrieved by the user in order to easily resolve the network’s
physical topology and its associated stations.
LLDP enables the discovery of accurate physical network topologies, meaning which
devices are neighbors and through which ports they connect. It enables the EtherHaul to
discover other network elements that are connected to it, including the discovery of
third-party network elements, and enables easier integration of EtherHaul links in an
LLDP supported networks.
