Caution: To ensure the former neighbor information is not lost owing to aging
when receiving next LLDP frame, the timeout time should be longer than the LLDP
packet transmit interval.
1.3.3 Configuring Timer
You can control the interval of the switch to transmit message by configuring the
timer of LLDP.
Run the following command in global configuration mode to configure timer of
LLDP:

1.3.4 Configuring Reinit
LLDP information will be forwarded automatically in two conditions: first, the status
or value of one or more information elements (management objects) change; second,
the sending timer timeouts. A single information change cause the LLDP packet is
forwarded and a series of information change may cause many LLDP frames
forwarded, but a frame can only report one change. For avoiding this, the web
management defines the interval of two continuous LLDP frames. You can control the
interval of the switch to continuously transmit two messages by configuring reinit of
LLDP.
Run the following command in global configuration mode to configure reinit of
LLDP:
