Hi, I have a QLogic Corp. QLogic 2x1GE+2x10GE QL41162HMRJ CNA network card. This network card comes with it's own lldp implementation inside their management firmware. Running two lldp agents seems to create several issues (http://lists.us.dell.com/pipermail/linux-poweredge/2018-July/051860.html). The QLogic engineers said I need to disable lldpad in the operating system. This leads me here, what is lldp actually used for within ovirt? If it is actually needed how could I deal with a card that does not support lldpad but rather has it's own implementation? Greetings Klaas

LLDP information is provided on REST-API and UI, see https://ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/network/lldp/ for details. LLDP is optional. It is save to mask lldpad. For this reason lldpad is just "wanted", but not "required" by supervdsmd.
If it is actually needed how could I deal with a card that does not support lldpad but rather has it's own implementation?
