NAME lldpd -- Send Link Layer Discovery Protocol packets over ethernet. SYNOPSIS lldpd [-c] [-i interface] [-d] [-f] [-s] DESCRIPTION The lldpd utiliy used to generate Link Layer Discovery Protocol packets and send them over ethernet. The options are as follows: -c Use the config file <path> instead of the default. -i interface set interface, over that packets will be sent -d Set debug verbosity <debug_level> can be any of : A : Enable ALL debug flags. c : Enable CONFIG debug flag. s : Enable STATE debug flag. t : Enable TLV debug flag. i : Enable INT debug flag. n : Enable SNMP debug flag. x : Enable EXCESSIVE debug flag. -f Run in forground mode -s Remove the existing control socket if found (Should only be used in system init scripts!) DIAGNOSTICS When everything is ok, and lldpd program is started with (default) dae- mon mode, it justs daemonises with return code 0. In case of errors they are printed to stderr and program exists with non-zero status. Most errors caused by the fact that the lldpd needs access to /dev/bpf*, so it must be started by root, and Berkeley Packet Filter must be enabled in kernel (by adding pseudo-device bpf into kernel con- figuration).
