Configure the LLDP Chassis-ID Subtype

You can configure the chassis ID subtype with any of the following values:

• Chassis component

• Interface alias

• Port component

• MAC address

• Network address

• Intereface name

• Local

While configuring the chassis-ID subtype as a chassis component, port component, or local setting, you must include an input string in the command for setting the chassis ID.

1. At both switches, configure the LLDP chassis ID subtype.

   SEFOS# configure terminal
   SEFOS(config)# lldp chassis-id-subtype chassis-comp "chassis"
   SEFOS(config)# set lldp enable
   SEFOS(config)# end

2. At switch 1, review the local system information on extreme-ethernet 0/1.

   SEFOS# show lldp
   ...
   Chassis Id SubType            : Chassis Component
   Chassis Id                : chassis

3. At switch 2, review the detailed information of the learned, remote entry on extreme-ethernet 0/1.

   SEFOS# show lldp neighbors extreme-ethernet 0/1 detail
   ...
   Chassis Id SubType            : Chassis Component
   Chassis Id                : chassis
