NAME

       LLDP-MED - Show / manipulate MED TLV configurations

SYNOPSIS

       lldptool -t -i ethx -V [ TLV_TYPE ] enableTx

       lldptool -T -i ethx -V [ TLV_TYPE ] enableTx = { yes | no }

       lldptool -T -i ethx -V LLDP-MED devtype = { class1 | class2 | class3 | none }

       lldptool -t -i ethx -V LLDP-MED devtype

TLV_TYPE  :  = {LLDP-MED | medCap | medPolicy | medLoc | medPower | medHwRev | medFwRev | medSwRev | medSerNum |
       medManuf | medModel | medAssetID }

DESCRIPTION

       The LLDP-MED extensions support the Link Layer Discovery Protocol for Media Endpoint Devices  defined  in
       the  ANSI/TIA-1057-2006 document. Each TLV can be configured as a class1 , class2 or class3 device. Class
       I devices are the most basic class of Endpoint Device, Class II devices support media stream capabilities
       and Class III devices directly support end users of the IP communication  system.  See  ANS-TIA-1057  for
       clarification of class types.

ARGUMENTS
