Link Local Protocol Filtering (LLPF) allows the switch to filter out multiple proprietary protocol PDUs, such as Port Aggregation Protocol (PAgP), if the problems occur with proprietary protocols running on standards-based switches. If certain protocol PDUs cause unexpected results, LLPF can be enabled to prevent those protocol PDUs from being processed by the switch.
NOTE: The LLPF feature is not supported on all platforms.
Use the Link Local Protocol Filtering Configuration page to enable or disable the filtering of various proprietary protocols. To access the Link Local Protocol Filtering Configuration page, click System > LLPF > Link Local Protocol Filtering Configuration in the navigation menu.
