  15 Description: implementation of IEEE 802.1ab (LLDP)
  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  .
  22  This implementation provides LLDP sending and reception, supports
  23  VLAN and includes an SNMP subagent that can interface to an SNMP
  24  agent through AgentX protocol.
  25  .
  26  This daemon is also able to deal with CDP, SONMP, FDP and EDP
  27  protocol. It also handles LLDP-MED extension.
