LLDPD does not show neighbors of neighbors #513

Hi Vicent, Currenly I'm working in a team developing a device that they will be sharing its information using lldp. We are usig your source code and the proposal is to identify all devices in our network. Thanks for your answer. |

That would be a ton of information to exchange on a large network. I prefer it to just show what device I'm directly connected to. Our monitoring system uses SNMP LLDP to map out the network that way. |

Yes, that's correct. Use SNMP to gather all the neighbors. LLDP does not have provision to advertise neighbors of neighbors. |
