The problem exists when LLDP is not configured but one wants to run the detail command. Running "show lldp neighbors" is not possible when LLDP is not running - so should the the detail command.

vyos@vyos:~$ show lldp neighbors 
Service LLDP is not configured
vyos@vyos:~$ show lldp neighbors detail
