Installing LLDP plug-ins

When the VRM component is deployed, you must install an LLDP plug-in for topology calculation.

An LLDP plug-in contains the following packages:

• lldp-agent-redhat.zip

• lldp-agent-ubuntu.zip

• lldp-agent-windows.zip

Packages lldp-agent-redhat.zip and lldp-agent-ubuntu.zip apply to KVM servers and the lldp-agent-windows.zip package applies to Microsoft Hyper-V servers.

Before you install the LLDP plug-ins, save and decompress the packages to the target servers.

Make sure the lldp-agent-windows.zip package is saved to a non-system disk.

	IMPORTANT: Do not delete the folder where the decompressed installation packages are located after LLDP agent installation because DHCP plug-ins will not be uninstalled completely.
