CCNAv7 - Enterprise Networking, Security, & Automation (ESNA) - Packet Tracer 10.8.1: CDP/LLDP/NTP
In this comprehensive and exhaustive techtorial on Packet Tracer activity 10.8.1 (Configure CDP/LLDP/NTP), we take a deep dive look at all the semantics around Cisco's proprietary Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP), the IEEE 802.1AB Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP), and the Network Time Protocol (NTP) through the lens of Packet Tracer 10.8.1, Cisco Modeling Labs (CML), and on live Cisco ISRG2 routers! We go over default settings, how to enable and disable CDP/LLDP globally and per-interface, and how LLDP allows you to decouple the transmission of messages from the receiving of messages - something CDP cannot do. Enjoy!
*This techtorial/Packet Tracer activity is all done running Packet Tracer version 7.3.1 (for the Mac) which was recently released! The MINIMUM version you can use for any of the new CCNAv7 curriculum activities is Packet Tracer v7.3.0! Be sure to leave your feedback and questions below and I hope I have earned the privilege of your time!
