LLDP
(Link Layer Discovery Protocol)
Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is a vendor-neutral protocol used by network devices to advertise their identity, capabilities, and neighbors on a local area network (LAN). LLDP operates at the data link layer of the OSI model.
LLDP is useful for network mapping, troubleshooting, and ensuring interoperability between devices from different manufacturers. It is defined by the IEEE 802.1AB standard and is widely supported in switches, routers, and other networking equipment. LLDP enhances network visibility and simplifies management tasks.
