Defining an LLDP-MED network policy
An LLDP-MED network policy defines an Endpoint VLAN configuration (VLAN type and VLAN
ID) and associated Layer 2 and Layer 3 priorities that apply to a specific set of
applications on a port.
Note: This feature applies to applications that have specific real-time network policy
requirements, such as interactive voice or video services. It is not intended to run
on links other than between Network Connectivity devices and Endpoints, and therefore
does not advertise the multitude of network policies that frequently run on an aggregated
link.
To define an LLDP-MED network policy for an Endpoint, enter a command such as the following.
device(config)#lldp med network-policy application voice tagged vlan 99 priority 3 dscp 22 port e 1/2/6
The network policy advertisement will appear similar to the following on the remote
device, and in the CLI display output on the
RUCKUS device (show lldp local-info ).
+ MED Network Policy
Application Type : Voice
Policy Flags : Known Policy, Tagged
VLAN ID : 99
L2 Priority : 3
DSCP Value : 22
Note: Endpoints will advertise a policy as "unknown" in the
show lldp neighbor detail command output, if it is a policy that is required by the Endpoint and the Endpoint
has not yet received it.
Note: In any LLDP-MED configuration with a priority of zero, tagged VLANs cannot be configured.
In this scenario, by design, the configuration defaults to an untagged state, and
the VLAN
associated with the ports is used.
