Configure LLDP Delay Time: 5 Seconds

D.

-> lldp holdtime seconds: Specify the amount of time a receiving device should hold the information from your device before discarding it lldp reinit delay: Specify the delay time in seconds for LLDP to initialize on an interface.

-> lldp timer rate: Set the sending frequency of LLDP updates in seconds Reference: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/lan/catalyst3560/software/release/12-2_55_se/configuration/guide/3560_scg/swlldp.html.

The correct command to configure an LLDP delay time of 5 seconds is option D. lldp reinit 5.

LLDP (Link Layer Discovery Protocol) is a vendor-neutral protocol used to discover information about directly connected devices. The LLDP timer determines how frequently the device sends out LLDP advertisements. The hold time is the amount of time that the receiving device should consider the information received from the sending device as valid.

Option A. lldp timer 5000 sets the LLDP timer to 5000 seconds, which is equivalent to almost 83 minutes. This is much longer than the default LLDP timer of 30 seconds and is not a recommended configuration.

Option B. lldp holdtime 5 sets the LLDP hold time to 5 seconds. This means that the receiving device will consider the information received from the sending device as valid for 5 seconds. However, this command does not affect the LLDP timer or the delay time.

Option C. lldp reinit 5000 sets the delay time between LLDP reinitialization to 5000 seconds, which is equivalent to almost 83 minutes. This is also not a recommended configuration.

Option D. lldp reinit 5 sets the delay time between LLDP reinitialization to 5 seconds. This means that if the LLDP advertisement is lost, the device will wait for 5 seconds before re-sending the advertisement. This command affects the delay time, which is what the question is asking for.

Therefore, the correct command to configure an LLDP delay time of 5 seconds is option D. lldp reinit 5.
