Enable or disable enhanced TLV support using REST APIs

Enabling or disabling the enableRichTLV parameter determines the information that is advertised in the Chassis ID TLV of LLDP frames sent out by an interconnect. Modifying this parameter impacts any service that queries this information for network topology information, for example attempting to derive network topology based on the contents of LLDPDUs.

Prerequisites

Minimum required session ID privileges: Infrastructure administrator
Virtual Connect 4.30 or higher installed on the interconnect

Enabling enhanced TLV support using REST APIs
Select a logical interconnect URI. `GET /rest/logical-interconnects` Get the logical interconnect using the URI from step 1. `GET /rest/logical-interconnects/{id}` Set `enableRichTLV` to `true`. Update the logical interconnect. `PUT /rest/logical-interconnects/{id}`

Disabling enhanced TLV support using REST APIs
Select a logical interconnect URI. `GET /rest/logical-interconnects` Get the logical interconnect using the URI from step 1. `GET /rest/logical-interconnects/{id}` Set `enableRichTLV` to `false`. Update the logical interconnect. `PUT /rest/logical-interconnects/{id}`
