Description

Capabilities

LLDP-MED capabilities are specific to LLDP-MED devices. Advertisement of this TLV by

endpoints enables LLDP-MED-capable network connectivity devices to determine

support of LLDP-MED by endpoints that they are connecting to.

Device Type

A specific type of LLDP-MED device, which can be either a network connectivity device

or a specific class of endpoint device.

Location

Format

Shows the specific Location ID data format being delivered in the Location ID field.

Location ID

Three Location ID data formats are defined:

•

Coordinate-based LCI data format

•

Civic Address LCI data format

•

ECS ELIN data format

Power Type

Shows whether LLDP-MED device transmitting the LLDPDU is a Power Sourcing Entity

(PSE) or Power Device (PD).

Power

Source

The power source being utilized by a PSE or PD device.

Power

Priority

The priority of the PD type device to the power being supplied by the PSE type device, or

the power priority associated with the PSE type device's port that is sourcing the power

through MDI.

Policies

Network policy is associated with multiple sets of application types supported on a given

port.

•

Application Type

. Integer value indicating the primary function of the applications

defined for this network policy, advertised by an endpoint or network connectivity

device.

•
