Usage Guidelines CDP Version 2 has three additional type-length values (TLVs): they are VTP Management Domain
Name, Native VLAN, and full/half-Duplex.

Examples In the following example, CDP Version 2 advertisements are diabled on the router:
Router#show cdp
Global CDP information:
Sending CDP packets every 60 seconds

Sending CDPv2 advertisements is enabled
Router#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Router(config)#no cdp advertise-v2
Router(config)#end
Router#show cdp
Global CDP information:
Sending CDP packets every 60 seconds
Sending a holdtime value of 180 seconds
Sending CDPv2 advertisements is not enabled
Router#

Related Commands Command Description

cdp enable Enables CDP on a supported interface.
cdp run Reenables CDP on a Cisco device.

 CDP Commands
cdp enable

cdp enable
To enable Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) on an interface, use the cdp enable interface configuration
command. To disable CDP on an interface, use the no form of this command.

cdp enable

no cdp enable

Syntax Description This command has no arguments or keywords.

Defaults Enabled at the global level and on all supported interfaces.

Command Modes Interface configuration

Command History Release Modification

10.3 This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines CDP is enabled by default at the global level and on each supported interface in order to send or receive
CDP information. However, some interfaces, such as ATM interfaces, do not support CDP.

Note The cdp enable, cdp timer, and cdp run commands affect the operation of the IP on demand routing
feature (that is, the router odr global configuration command). For more information on the router
odr command, see the “On-Demand Routing Commands” chapter in the Cisco IOS IP and IP
Routing Command Reference.

Examples In the following example, CDP is disabled on the Ethernet 0 interface only:
Router#show cdp
Global CDP information:
Sending CDP packets every 60 seconds
Sending a holdtime value of 180 seconds
Sending CDPv2 advertisements is enabled
Router#config terminal
Router(config)#interface ethernet 0
Router(config-if)#no cdp enable

Related Commands Command Description

cdp run Reenables CDP on a Cisco device.
cdp timer Specifies how often the Cisco IOS software sends CDP updates.
router odr Enables on-demand routing on a hub router.

 CDP Commands
cdp holdtime

cdp holdtime
To specify the amount of time the receiving device should hold a Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) packet
from your router before discarding it, use the cdp holdtime global configuration command. To revert to
the default setting, use the no form of this command.

cdp holdtime seconds

no cdp holdtime

Syntax Description seconds Specifies the hold time to be sent in the CDP update packets.

Defaults 180 seconds

Command Modes Global configuration

Command History Release Modification

10.3 This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines CDP packets are sent with a time to live, or hold time, value. The receiving device will discard the CDP
information in the CDP packet after the hold time has elapsed.
You can set the hold time lower than the default setting of 180 seconds if you want the receiving devices
to update their CDP info more rapidly.
The CDP hold time must be set to a higher number of seconds than the time between CDP transmissions,
which is set using the cdp timer command.

Examples In the following example, the CDP packets being sent from the router are configured with a hold time of
60 seconds.
Router(config)#cdp holdtime 60

Related Commands Command Description

cdp timer Specifies how often the Cisco IOS software sends CDP updates.
show cdp Displays global CDP information, including timer and hold-time
information.

 CDP Commands
cdp log mismatch duplex

cdp log mismatch duplex

To display the log of duplex mismatches generated by the Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) on Ethernet
interfaces on a router, use the cdp log mismatch duplex command in global configuration or interface
configuration mode. To disable the display of duplex messages on all Ethernet interfaces, use the no form
of this command.

cdp log mismatch duplex

no cdp log mismatch duplex

Syntax Description This command has no arguments or keywords.

Defaults The router reports duplex mismatches from all Ethernet interfaces.

Command Modes Global configuration

Interface configuration

Command History Release Modification

12.0 This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines When you enter the cdp log mismatch duplex command in global configuration mode, duplex
mismatches are displayed on all Ethernet interfaces on the router. When you enter this command in
interface configuration mode, only duplex mismatches for the specified Ethernet interface are displayed.
If the cdp log mismatch duplex command is disabled in global configuration mode, it cannot be
configured per interface using interface configuration mode.
Duplex mismatch can occur only on Ethernet interfaces.

Examples The following example of the cdp log mismatch duplex command in global configuration mode enables
the display of duplex messages from all Ethernet interfaces on the router:
Router(config)# cdp log mismatch duplex

The following example of the cdp log mismatch duplex command in interface configuration mode
enables only the display of duplex messages that may be generated from Ethernet interface 2/1:
Router(config-if)# interface ethernet2/1

Router(config-if)# cdp log mismatch duplex

The following is sample output from the show running-config command. The bold text shows that the
cdp log mismatch duplex command is disabled globally.
Router# show running-config

 CDP Commands
cdp run

cdp run
To enable Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP), use the cdp run global configuration command. To disable
CDP, use the no form of this command.

cdp run

no cdp run

Syntax Description This command has no arguments or keywords.

Defaults Enabled

Command Modes Global configuration

Command History Release Modification

10.3 This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines CDP is enabled on your router by default, which means the Cisco IOS software will receive CDP
information. CDP also is enabled on supported interfaces by default. To disable CDP on an interface, use
the no cdp enable interface configuration command.

Note Becuase ODR (on demand routing) uses CDP, the cdp enable, cdp timer, and cdp run commands
affect the operation of the router odr global configuration command. For more information on the
router odr command, see the Release 12.2 Cisco IOS IP Command Reference, Volume 2 of 3:
Routing Protocols document.

Examples In the following example, CDP is disabled globally, then the user attempts to enable CDP on the Ethernet
0 interface:
Router(config)#no cdp run
Router(config)#end
Router#show cdp
% CDP is not enabled
Router#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Router(config)#int eth0

% Cannot enable CDP on this interface, since CDP is not running

 CDP Commands
cdp timer

cdp timer
To specify how often the Cisco IOS software sends Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) updates, use the
cdp timer global configuration command. To revert to the default setting, use the no form of this
command.

cdp timer seconds

no cdp timer

Syntax Description seconds Specifies how often the Cisco IOS software sends CDP updates.

Defaults 60 seconds

Command Modes Global configuration

Command History Release Modification

10.3 This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines The trade-off with sending more frequent transmissions is providing up-to-date information versus using
bandwidth more often.

Note The cdp enable, cdp timer, and cdp run commands affect the operation of the IP on demand routing
feature (that is, the router odr global configuration command). For more information on the router
odr command, see the “On-Demand Routing Commands” chapter in the Cisco IOS IP and IP
Routing Command Reference.

Examples In the following example, CDP updates are sent every 80 seconds, less frequently than the default setting
of 60 seconds. You might want to make this change if you are concerned about preserving bandwidth.
cdp timer 80

Related Commands Command Description

cdp enable Enables CDP on a supported interface.
cdp holdtime Specifies the amount of time the receiving device should hold a CDP packet
from your router before discarding it.
cdp timer Specifies how often the Cisco IOS software sends CDP updates.
