Add an option to configure LLDP operation mode (receive, transmit, both, or none)
Closed, ResolvedPublicFEATURE REQUEST
Actions

Description

  • LLDP is a stateless protocol which does not necessitate sending to receive advertisements
  • There are multiple scenarios such as provider peering links in which it is advantageous to receive LLDP but not disclose internal information to the provider
  • set service lldp interface ifaceX receive-only should expose this behavior to users wherein lldpd will not send on the designated interface but will still receive (and utilize/expose/etc) link partner advertisement

I would prefer if both disabled, all, rx-only and tx-only setting could be applied.

Something like (could select a better naming if needed):

set service lldp interface ifaceX disabled
set service lldp interface ifaceX receive-and-transmit
set service lldp interface ifaceX receive-only
set service lldp interface ifaceX transmit-only
