3-8.3 LLDP-MED
Configuration
Media endpoint discovery is an enhancement of LLDP, known as LLDP-MED that
provides the following facilities:
Auto-discovery of LAN policies (e.g. VLAN, Layer 2 Priority and
Differentiated services [Diffserv] settings) enabling plug and play
networking.
Device location discovery to allow creation of location databases and in the
case of Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), enhanced 911 services.
Extended and automated power management of power over Ethernet
(PoE) end points.
Inventory management allows network administrators to track their
network devices and determine their characteristics (manufacturer,
software and hardware versions, serial or asset number).
This page allows you to configure the LLDP-MED. This function applies to VoIP
devices which support LLDP-MED.
