	address string		This argument sets the management address from LLDP.
	enabled boolean	Choices: no yes	This argument is a boolean value to enabled or disable LLDP.
	hold_multiplier integer		Specify the number of seconds that LLDP information is held before it is discarded. The multiplier value is used in combination with the interval value.
	interval integer		Frequency at which LLDP advertisements are sent (in seconds).
	transmit_delay integer		Specify the number of seconds the device waits before sending advertisements to neighbors after a change is made in local system.
state string		Choices: merged ← replaced deleted	The state of the configuration after module completion.

Notes

Note

• This module requires the netconf system service be enabled on the remote device being managed.

Examples

# Using merged
# Before state:
# -------------
# user@junos01# # show protocols lldp
#
- name: Merge provided configuration with device configuration
  junos_lldp_global:
    config:
      interval: 10000
      address: 10.1.1.1
      transmit_delay: 400
      hold_multiplier: 10
    state: merged

# After state:
# -------------
# user@junos01# show protocols lldp
# management-address 10.1.1.1;
# advertisement-interval 10000;
# transmit-delay 400;
# hold-multiplier 10;

# Using replaced
# Before state:
# -------------
# user@junos01# show protocols lldp
# management-address 10.1.1.1;
# advertisement-interval 10000;
# transmit-delay 400;
# hold-multiplier 10;

- name: Replace provided configuration with device configuration
  junos_lldp_global:
    config:
      address: 20.2.2.2
      hold_multiplier: 30
      enabled: False
    state: replaced

# After state:
# -------------
# user@junos01# show protocols lldp
# disable;
# management-address 20.2.2.2;
# hold-multiplier 30;

# Using deleted
# Before state:
# -------------
# user@junos01# show protocols lldp
# management-address 20.2.2.2;
# hold-multiplier 30;

- name: Delete lldp configuration (this will by default remove all lldp configuration)
  junos_lldp_global:
    state: deleted

# After state:
# -------------
# user@junos01# # show protocols lldp
#
