1.0.8

• Fix:
  • Out-of-bound read access when parsing LLDP-MED civic address in
    liblldpctl for malformed fields.
  • Fix memory leak when receiving LLDPU with duplicate fields.
    CVE-2020-27827.
• Changes:
  • Enable "router" capability bit when IPv6 routing is enabled.

1.0.7

• Fix:
  • Do not listen only to LLDP packets on Linux. When an interface is enslaved to an Open vSwitch, incoming packets are missed.

1.0.6

• Fix:
  • Do not loose chassis local information when interface status changes.
  • Fix SNMP walk on lldpRemTable when missing remote system name or description.
  • Remove length limitation on system description and platform.
• Changes:
  • Deprecate use of lldpctl_watch_callback(). Use lldpctl_watch_callback2() instead.
  • Upgrade embedded libevent to 2.1.11-stable
  • Add support of sending LLDP frames on a configured VLAN

1.0.5

• Changes:
  • Interface names are also matched for management addresses.
  • On Linux, only register protocol handler for LLDP when only LLDP
    is enabled.
  • Stricter on LLDP incoming frames validation.
  • Add support for VLAN-aware bridges for Linux (no range support).
  • Add support for 802.3BT (no SNMP support).
  • Add support for millisecond-grained tx-interval (Jean-Pierre Tosoni).
  • Use generic names for VLAN names, instead of interface names (eg
    vlan100 instead of eth1.100).
• Fix:
  • Don't clear chassis TLV on shutdown LLDPDU.
  • Don't require/display powerpairs for Dot3 power when device type
    is PD.

0.7.9

• Changes:
  • Default location for chroot, socket and PID are now configurable
    in ./configure. The default location is based on the value of
    runstatedir which in turn may be based on the value of
    localstatedir which defaults to /usr/local/var. Therefore,
    to get the previous locations, lldpd should be configured with
    ./configure --localstatedir=/var.
• Fixes:
  • Fix configure system bond-slave-src-mac-type local. Also use
    it as default.
• Features:
  • Add support for shutdown LLDPU.
  • Ability to configure IP management pattern from lldpcli.
  • Ability to choose what port ID should be (MAC or interface name).

0.7.8

• Fixes:
  • Don't hard-code default values for system name, system
    description and port description. When the field is not present,
    just don't display it.
  • Fix lldpcli behaviour when suid.
  • On OSX, don't use p2p0 interfaces: it would break WLAN.
  • Fix SNMP support on RHEL.
• Features:
  • Android support
  • Add the possibility to disable privilege separation (lower
    memory consumption, lower security, don't do it).
  • Interfaces can now be whitelisted. For example, ,!eth,!!eth1
    is a valid pattern for all interfaces except eth ones, except
    eth1. Moreover, on exact match, an matching interface
    circumvents most sanity checks (like VLAN handling).
  • Ability to override the hostname.
