You and I are on the same task today - i've just discovered LLDP and investigating it with a vengeance!

 

Unfortunately I don't know a helpful answer to your question yet.

Open Powershell and type it in.

 

If that doesn't work, try...

Import-Module netldpagent

 

and then try typing the command in again.

 

If that doesn't work, ask again.

Import-Module : The specified module 'netldpagent' was not loaded because no valid module file was found in any module

directory.

What OS are you on and what PS version?

Import-Module : The specified module 'netldpagent' was not loaded because no valid module file was found in any module

directory.

Need to have the following Windows features enabled/ installed:-

• Data Center Bridging
  
• DataCenterBridging LLDP Tools

This should work for Windows 10...

 

If (!(Get-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName 'DataCenterBridging').State -eq 'Enabled') {
   Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName 'DataCenterBridging'
}

Get-NetAdapter | Where-Object { $_.Name -like "*Ethernet*" -and $_.Status -eq 'Up' } | ForEach { Enable-NetLldpAgent -NetAdapterName $_.Name -Verbose }

Thank you that seems to work.

[tri_94]

I haven't found much information on Enable-NetLldpAgent anywhere when looking online and i was wondering if you knew anything else about it's parameters. I'm not very proficient with powershell, but i'm hoping that NetlldpAgent can output the computer's hostname under the SysName or ChassisId instead of the Mac Address. I know that $env:computername can be used to parse the hostname, but i don't know how to feed it into the NetLldpAgent. Any idea?

[HPlum78]

So @Netvic I am going to in the first instance say that get-help is your friend here (get-help enable-netlldpagent or get-netlldpagent). But just for you here is the online documentation https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/netldpagent/enable-netlldpagent?view=win10-ps or

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/netldpagent/get-netlldpagent?view=win10-ps

 

I am not 100% clear on what your after from the netlldpagent commands but get-computerinfo may help.
