Managing LLDP on a Global Basis

LLDP is enabled by default on individual ports.

You can enable support for tagged LLDP packets, change the maximum number of LLDP neighbors per device and per port.

  1. Enter the configure terminal command to access global configuration mode. 
    device# configure terminal
  2. (Optional) Enable support for tagged LLDP packets. 
    device(config)# lldp tagged-packets process
    By default, RUCKUS devices do not accept tagged LLDP packets from other vendor devices.

    When enabled, the device accepts incoming LLDP tagged packets if the VLAN tag matches with a configured VLAN on the port, the default VLAN for a tagged port, and the configured untagged VLAN for a dual-mode port.

  3. (Optional) Specify the maximum number of LLDP neighbors per device. 
    device(config)# lldp max-total-neighbors 26
    This example changes the maximum number of LLDP neighbors for the entire device to 26.
  4. (Optional) Specify the maximum number of LLDP neighbors per port . 
    device(config)# lldp max-neighbors-per-port 6
    This example changes the maximum number of LLDP neighbors per port to 6.

This following example enables support for tagged LLDP packets and change the maximum number of LLDP neighbors per device and per port. 

device# configure terminal
device(config)# lldp tagged-packets process
device(config)# lldp max-total-neighbors 26
device(config)# lldp max-neighbors-per-port 69
