Synopsis

• This module manages link layer discovery protocol (LLDP) attributes of interfaces on Extreme Networks EXOS platforms.

Parameters

Parameter		Choices/Defaults	Comments
config list / elements=dictionary			The list of link layer discovery protocol interface attribute configurations
	enabled boolean	Choices: no yes	This is a boolean value to control disabling of LLDP on the interface name
	name string / required		Name of the interface LLDP needs to be configured on.
state string		Choices: merged ← replaced overridden deleted	The state the configuration should be left in.

Return Values

Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:

Key	Returned	Description
after list / elements=string	when changed	The resulting configuration model invocation. Sample: The configuration returned will always be in the same format of the parameters above.
before list / elements=string	always	The configuration prior to the model invocation. Sample: The configuration returned will always be in the same format of the parameters above.
requests list / elements=string	always	The set of requests pushed to the remote device. Sample: [{'data': '...', 'method': '...', 'path': '...'}, {'data': '...', 'method': '...', 'path': '...'}, {'data': '...', 'method': '...', 'path': '...'}]
