Supported TLVs in LLDP
LLDPDUs include mandatory and optional TLVs. The following
table lists the mandatory TLVs that the firewall supports:
Mandatory TLVs | TLV Type | Description |
---|---|---|
Chassis ID TLV | 1 | Identifies the firewall chassis. Each firewall
must have exactly one unique Chassis ID. The Chassis ID subtype
is 4 (MAC address) on Palo Alto Networks ® models will
use the MAC address of Eth0 to ensure uniqueness. |
Port ID TLV | 2 | Identifies the port from which the LLDPDU
is sent. Each firewall uses one Port ID for each LLDPDU message
transmitted. The Port ID subtype is 5 (interface name) and uniquely
identifies the transmitting port. The firewall uses the interface’s
ifname as the Port ID. |
Time-to-live (TTL) TLV | 3 | Specifies how long (in seconds) LLDPDU information
received from the peer is retained as valid in the local firewall
(range is 0-65,535). The value is a multiple of the LLDP Hold Time
Multiplier. When the TTL value is 0, the information associated
with the device is no longer valid and the firewall removes that
entry from the MIB. |
End of LLDPDU TLV | 0 | Indicates the end of the TLVs in the LLDP
Ethernet frame. |
The following table lists the optional TLVs that the Palo Alto
Networks firewall supports:
Optional TLVs | TLV Type | Purpose and Notes
Regarding Firewall Implementation |
---|---|---|
Port Description TLV | 4 | Describes the port of the firewall in alpha-numeric
format. The ifAlias object is used. |
System Name TLV | 5 | Configured name of the firewall in alpha-numeric
format. The sysName object is used. |
System Description TLV | 6 | Describes the firewall in alpha-numeric
format. The sysDescr object is used. |
System Capabilities | 7 | Describes the deployment mode of the interface,
as follows:
|
Management Address | 8 | One or more IP addresses used for firewall
management, as follows:
If
no management IP address is provided, the default is the MAC address
of the transmitting interface. Included is the interface number
of the management address specified. Also included is the OID of
the hardware interface with the management address specified (if
applicable). If more than one management address is specified,
they will be sent in the order they are specified, starting at the
top of the list. A maximum of four Management Addresses are supported. This
is an optional parameter and can be left disabled. |
