LLDP Overloading
LLDP adds information as LLDP and LLDP-MED TLVs into the LLDP packets. LLDP
overload occurs when the total amount of information to be included in a LLDP
packet exceed the maximum PDU size supported by an interface.
The LLDP Overloading page displays the number of bytes of LLDP/LLDP-MED
information, the number of available bytes for additional LLDP information, and the
overloading status of every interface.
To view LLDP overloading information:
- Click Administration > Discovery - LLDP > LLDP Overloading. The LLDP
Overloading page opens.
This page displays the following fields for each port:
- Interface--Port identifier.
- Total (Bytes)--Total number of bytes of LLDP information in each packet
- Left to Send (Bytes)--Total number of available bytes left for additional LLDP information in each packet.
- Status--Whether TLVs are being transmitted or if they are overloaded.
- To view the overloading details for a port, select it and click Details. The LLDP
Overloading Details opens.
This page displays the following information for each TLV sent on the port:
- LLDP Mandatory TLVs
- Size (Bytes)--Total mandatory TLV byte size.
- Status--If the mandatory TLV group is being transmitted, or if the TLV group was overloaded.
- LLDP MED Capabilities
- Size (Bytes)--Total LLDP MED capabilities packets byte size.
- Status--If the LLDP MED capabilities packets were sent, or if they were overloaded.
- LLDP MED Location
- Size (Bytes)--Total LLDP MED location packets byte size.
- Status--If the LLDP MED locations packets were sent, or if they were overloaded.
- LLDP MED Network Policy
- Size (Bytes)--Total LLDP MED network policies packets byte size.
- Status--If the LLDP MED network policies packets were sent, or if they were overloaded.
- LLDP MED Extended Power via MDI
- Size (Bytes)--Total LLDP MED extended power via MDI packets byte size.
- Status--If the LLDP MED extended power via MDI packets were sent, or if they were overloaded.
- 802.3 TLVs
- Size (Bytes)--Total LLDP MED 802.3 TLVs packets byte size.
- Status--If the LLDP MED 802.3 TLVs packets were sent, or if they were overloaded.
- LLDP Optional TLVs
- Size (Bytes)--Total LLDP MED optional TLVs packets byte size.
- Status--If the LLDP MED optional TLVs packets were sent, or if they were overloaded.
- LLDP MED Inventory
- Size (Bytes)--Total LLDP MED inventory TLVs packets byte size.
- Status--If the LLDP MED inventory packets were sent, or if they were overloaded.
- Total (Bytes)--Total number of bytes of LLDP information in each packet
- Left to Send (Bytes)--Total number of available bytes left for additional LLDP information in each packet.
