LLDP-DCBX configuration
Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is a IEEE standard for collecting and distributing device
information. Data Center Bridging Exchange (DCBX) extends LLDP by providing a protocol for
discovering, initializing, and managing CEE-compliant devices.
There are two configuration procedures:
Configuring global LLDP characteristics.
Configuring an LLDP profile.
Configuring global LLDP characteristics
Configuring at the global level enables you to apply changes to every port.
Use the following procedure to configure the global LLDP characteristics.
1.
Select the
CEE
tab on the
Switch Administration
panel.
2.
Select the
LLDP-DCBX
tab.
3.
