11 | Description: implementation of IEEE 802.1ab (LLDP) |
| 12 | This implementation provides LLDP sending and reception, supports | |
| 13 | VLAN and includes an SNMP subagent that can interface to an SNMP | |
| 14 | agent through AgentX protocol. | |
| 15 | . | |
| 16 | LLDP is an industry standard protocol designed to supplant | |
| 17 | proprietary Link-Layer protocols such as Extreme's EDP (Extreme | |
| 18 | Discovery Protocol) and CDP (Cisco Discovery Protocol). The goal of | |
| 19 | LLDP is to provide an inter-vendor compatible mechanism to deliver | |
| 20 | Link-Layer notifications to adjacent network devices. | |
| 21 | . | |
| 031118c4 | 22 | This daemon is also able to deal with CDP, FDP, SONMP and EDP |
| b193e97e | 23 | protocol. It also handles LLDP-MED extension. |
