Implementing Cisco IP Switched Networks (CCNP SWITCH, legacy) — Question 68

Which option describes a limitation of LLDP?

Answer options

• A. LLDP cannot provide information about VTP.
• B. LLDP does not support TLVs.
• C. LLDP can discover only Windows servers.
• D. LLDP can discover up to two devices per port.

Correct answer:

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as LLDP does not provide information about VTP, which is specific to Cisco's VLAN Trunking Protocol. Option B is incorrect because LLDP does support TLVs (Type-Length-Value structures). Option C is false as LLDP is capable of discovering devices across various operating systems, not just Windows. Option D is also incorrect since LLDP can discover multiple devices beyond just two per port.
