Configuring the LLDP chassis-ID-subtype

This section describes the configuration of chassis ID subtype. Chassis ID subtype can be configured as any of the following values:

Note:

While configuring Chassis ID subtype as Chassis component / Port component/ Local, an input string must be given in the command for setting Chassis ID.

At Switch A and Switch B:

  1. Configure LLDP chassis ID subtype by executing the following commands:.

    Type the following:

    • Enter the Global Configuration Mode.
    iS5comm# configure terminal
    • Configure chassis-ID subtype and enable LLDP.
    i5comm(config)# lldp chassis-id-subtype chassis-comp "chassis"
    iS5comm(config)# set lldp enable
    iS5comm(config)# exit
  2. At Switch A: verify the configuration about neighbors learnt on a particular interface.

    Perform the following:

    iS5comm# show lldp local gigabitethernet 0/1

  3. At Switch B, verify the neighbor information learnt on interface gigabitethernet 0/1, by executing the following command.

    Perform the following.

    iS5comm# show lldp neighbors gigabitethernet 0/1 detail
