Rysz Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 (edited) LLDP for UNRAID (6.10+) A plugin that integrates a Link Layer Discovery Protocol service into UNRAID systems (speaking LLDP, CDP, FDP, SONMP and EDP). LLDP allows you to know exactly on which port is a server (and reciprocally). LLDP is an industry standard protocol designed to supplant proprietary Link-Layer protocols. The goal of LLDP is to provide an inter-vendor compatible mechanism to deliver Link-Layer notifications to adjacent network devices. What's the most common use case? Image: https://lldpd.github.io/ You have a managed switch with tons of cables and you're not sure which port your Unraid machine is connected to. The plugin allows the Unraid machine to advertise itself to the switch so ideally you'll see that it's connected on port X. How to install? Community Applications. 🙂 or via Direct Link: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/desertwitch/LLDP-unRAID/main/plugin/ulldpd.plg How does it work? After installation LLDP is disabled by default and waiting for your configuration. All necessary steps to configure and use the plugin are explained in the GUI (Settings ➔ LLDP). How to contribute? https://github.com/desertwitch/LLDP-unRAID ... and of most importantly - please do test and report back here! Edited February 26 by Rysz 1 Quote Link to comment

BVD Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Looks like the release notes are missing: Checked the github and doesn't appear to be posted there either, though looking at the commits it seems like it should just be something like "verify no LLDP service is running during install/upgrade" I think?

Yeah it was just a very minor change in the positioning of some statements in the installation and removal processes - sorry, I missed the release note. 🙂 I've added the release notes now, you probably won't see them because you've already checked for updates, but other users will see them.
