New Qpkg in Qnapclub Store: lldpd
Implementation of IEEE 802.1ab (LLDP, Link Layer Discovery Protocol)

lldpd is a 802.1ab implementation (LLDP) to help you locate neighbors of all your equipments.

Why using lldpd

LLDP allows you to know exactly on which port is a server (and reciprocally).

LLDP is an industry standard protocol designed to supplant proprietary Link-Layer protocols such as EDP or CDP. The goal of LLDP is to provide an inter-vendor compatible mechanism to deliver Link-Layer notifications to adjacent network devices.

lldpd is an ISC-licensed implementation of LLDP for various Unixes. It also supports some proprietary protocols.

<u>qpkg implementation :</u>

add in $PATH command lldpcli, lldpctl, lldpd
lldpd daemon is started automatically on start (with basic feature)

many optimisation/option are possible
