Today’s one of the most admired network service “E-mail” has been modernized the concept of how to communicate worldwide with simplicity and speed without spending extra money. However, to run this service on a computer system or any other end device, e-mail is needed some specific applications as well as services such as application layer protocol “Post Office Protocol” (POP).
In the first article we said some basic things about LLDP protocol and what is he doing. In this part, we will show all commands that can be inserted into Juniper router to make it run LLDP.
