LLDP inventory collection

Collect LLDP inventory information.

there are three things I'm interested in being collected for inventory purposes:

a) LLDP neighbors

node, interface, remote-chassis-id, remote port, remote SystemName

b) LLPD power discovery

to detect over-committed PoE provisioning on a switch

  • I have a lot of non-cisco devices and LLDP is an important network prototcol for these manufacturers.  CDP is a Cisco only protocol so other manufacturers are unlikely to use it without paying to do so.  Some have licensed it after building a CDP > LLDP compatibility mode.
