What is a difference between CDP and LLDP?
- CDP can gather information from routers, switches, and wireless APs, whereas LLDP can only gather information from routers and switches.
- CDP can obtain both Layer 2 and Layer 3 information, whereas LLDP can only obtain Layer 2 information.
- CDP is a proprietary protocol, whereas LLDP is a vendor-neutral protocol.
- CDP is enabled on an interface using two commands, whereas LLDP requires only one command.
