Description-en: Link Layer Discovery Protocol Implementation (Runtime)
The lldpad package is an implementation of the Link Layer Discovery
Protocol (LLDP). It originated from Intel's Data Center Bridging (DCB)
software - the dcbd package. The lldpad package adds LLDP support
for all ports in addition to DCB Exchange protocol (DCBX) support on DCB
capable ports (as was provided by dcbd). Also, support for additional
LLDP TLVs has been added.
.
DCB is a collection of emerging standards-based technologies designed to
allow Ethernet to support multiple types of traffic classes in the Data
Center. The DCBX functionality of this package is designed to work with
the DCB kernel interface (dcbnl in rtnetlink) that is included in the Linux
kernel 2.6.29 or higher. The Intel ixgbe driver supports the dcbnl interface.
.
This package contains lldpad runtime binaries.
