LLDP
8.2.1
Overview
LLDP (Link Layer Discovery Protocol) is defined by IEEE 802.1AB. LLDP can discover devices and detect
topology changes. With LLDP, the Eweb management system can learn the topological connection status, for
example, ports of the device that are connected to other devices, port rates at both ends of a link, and duplex
mode matching status. An administrator can locate and troubleshoot faults quickly based on the preceding
information.
