Synopsis 

This module provides configuration management of interface LLDP parameters in devices running SONiC.
It is intended for use in conjunction with global LLDP.

Parameters 

Parameter	Comments
config list / elements=dictionary	The set of link layer discovery protocol interface attribute configurations
enable boolean	This argument is a boolean value to enable or disable LLDP. This command is supported only on physical interfaces and not on logical interfaces. Choices: `false` `true`
med_tlv_select dictionary	This command can be used to select whether to advertise the LLDP-MED TLVs or not. By default the LLDP-MED TLVs are advertised. This command is supported only on physical interfaces and not on logical interfaces.
network_policy boolean	This command can be used to select whether to advertise network-policy LLDP-MED TLVs or not. By default network-policy LLDP-MED TLVs are advertised. Choices: `false` `true`
power_management boolean	This command can be used to select whether to advertise power-management LLDP-MED TLVs or not. By default power-management LLDP-MED TLVs are advertised. Choices: `false` `true`
mode string	By default both transmit and receive of LLDP frames is enabled. This command can be used to configure either in receive only or transmit only mode. This command is supported on physical and logical interfaces. Choices: `"receive"` `"transmit"`
name string / required	Interface name in which LLDP needs to be configured on.
tlv_select dictionary	This command can be used to select whether to advertise the LLDP 802.3at or bt power management TLVs or not. By default this TLV is advertised. This command is supported only on physical interfaces and not on logical interfaces.
power_management boolean	This command can be used to select whether to advertise power-management LLDP TLVs or not. By default power-management LLDP TLVs are advertised. Choices: `false` `true`
tlv_set dictionary	This command can be used to configure an IPv4 or IPv6 management address that will be used to advertise by LLDP on an interface This command is supported only on physical interfaces and not on logical interfaces.
ipv4_management_address string	To configure IPv4 management address for LLDP in A.B.C.D format
ipv6_management_address string	To configure IPv6 management address for LLDP in A:B::C:D format
state string	The state specifies the type of configuration update to be performed on the device. If the state is “merged”, merge specified attributes with existing configured attributes. For “deleted”, delete the specified attributes from existing configuration. For “replaced”, replaces lldp interface configuration of the specified interfaces with provided configuration. For “overridden”, overrides all on-device lldp interface configurations with the provided configuration. Choices: `"merged"` ← (default) `"deleted"` `"replaced"` `"overridden"`
