Similar to LLDP, Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) is a link layer protocol for directly
connected neighbors to advertise themselves and their capabilities to each other.
Unlike LLDP, CDP is a Cisco proprietary protocol.
This section describes how to configure CDP and includes the following topics:
•
Configuring CDP Properties
•
Configuring CDP Port Settings
•
Viewing CDP Local Information
•
Displaying CDP Neighbor Information
•
Viewing CDP Statistics
Configuring CDP Properties
Use the CDP Properties page to globally enable CDP on the switch and configure
general CDP parameters.
To define CDP properties:
Click Administration > Discovery CDP > Properties.
Enter the following information:
•
CDP Status—Check Enable to globally enable CDP on the switch.
•
CDP Frames Handling—If CDP is disabled, select the action to be taken if a
packet that matches the selected criteria is received:
-
Bridging—(VLAN-aware flooding) Forwards the packet based on the
VLAN.
-
Filtering—Deletes the packet.
-
Flooding—(VLAN-unaware flooding) Forwards incoming CDP packets to
all the ports excluding the ingress ports.
•
CDP Voice VLAN Advertisement—Check Enable to enable the switch to
advertise the voice VLAN in CDP on all ports that are CDP-enabled, and are
members of the voice VLAN.
