GS752TP v6.0.1.118 not presenting LLDP SystemName to Cisco 3750G
My Netgear GS752TP is connected to a Cisco Catalyst 3750G. Both have System Names set, and LLDP is enabled TX/RX on the connected interface. I can see the CIsco neighbor's System Name, but the Netgear is not presenting its System Name to the Cisco - only the Chassis ID, which is not what I need.
Output from the Cisco:

Is this a bug or a configuration error?

Hi dluechtefeld,
Welcome to our community!
GS752TP only supports standard LLDP. May I know if the NETGEAR switch can recognize other devices in the LLDP? It seems that you are just seeing this from the cisco. Have you checked the NETGEAR if it can see other devices?

Mandatory vs. optional TLV types -> Wikipedia: Link Layer Discovery Protocol - Frame_structure
OK, how do I set the Chassis ID to something more meaningful? The MAC address is not very identifiable.
