- Link Layer Discovery Protocol daemon
/usr/lib/lldpd
svc:/network/lldp:default
lldpd is a system daemon that implements the Link Layer Discovery Protocol as specified in IEEE Std. 802.1AB. The daemon also manages LLDP agents on physical datalinks. Please see lldpadm(1M) for more information on administering LLDP on LLDP agents.
The lldpd daemon is controlled through the service management facility (SMF) service instance:
svc:/network/lldp:default
This means, svcadm(1M) must be used to start, stop, restart, and refresh this daemon. This daemon is disabled by default. To enable LLDP on any of the physical datalinks, this daemon should be running.
The lldpd daemon is a project private interface and has no user-accessible options.
Example 1 Enabling the Daemon
The following command enables the lldpd daemon.
# svcadm enable network/lldp # svcs network/lldp STATE STIME FMRI online Jan_26 svc:/network/lldp:default
Example 2 Disabling the Daemon
The following command disables the lldpd daemon.
# svcadm disable network/lldp # svcs network/lldp STATE STIME FMRI disabled 5:11:35 svc:/network/lldp:default
