  Description     : implementation of IEEE 802.1ab

The OpenLLDP project aims to provide a comprehensive implementation of
the IEEE standard 802.1AB Link Layer Discovery Protocol. LLDP is an
industry standard protocol designed to supplant proprietary Link-Layer
protocols such as Extreme's EDP (Extreme Discovery Protocol) and CDP
(Cisco Discovery Protocol).

The goal of LLDP is to provide an inter-vendor compatible mechanism to
deliver Link-Layer notifications to adjacent network devices.
