LLDP

Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) configuration manages global LLDP behavior on NX-OS devices. Settings include holdtime multiplier, reinitialization delay, transmit interval, TLV selection, port ID subtype format, chassis ID MAC override, and port-channel member LLDP participation.

Examples

Example 1: Basic LLDP with custom timers

nxos:
  devices:
    - name: LEAF1
      configuration:
        feature:
          lldp: true
        lldp:
          holdtime: 120
          reinit: 2
          timer: 30

Example 2: LLDP with short port ID subtype for interoperability

nxos:
  devices:
    - name: LEAF1
      configuration:
        feature:
          lldp: true
        lldp:
          holdtime: 120
          timer: 30
          portid_subtype: short
          chassis_id: true

Example 3: LLDP with port-channel member participation and TLV selection

nxos:
  devices:
    - name: LEAF1
      configuration:
        feature:
          lldp: true
        lldp:
          holdtime: 120
          reinit: 2
          timer: 30
          portid_subtype: long
          port_channel: true
