Hi!
I am using a TPLink Archer C7, V5, with OpenWrt 21.02.3. I have installed lldpd version 1.0.7-1.
After connecting my router to a network that contains a raspberry pi which also has lldpd installed, I can check (through Wireshark) that both the raspberry and the router are sending lldp packets periodically. However, only the rapsberry shows me the router as its neighbor when I issue the command lldpcli show neighbors. The Archer C7 prints a blank list in response to that command. Anyone knows what is going on? Perhaps the router CPU is not receiving the lldp packets?
I appreciate any help.
Did you allow the packets thru your firewall?

Not quite sure how I would do that. The lldp packets are ethernet multicast and are being sent in the LAN network. The openwrt firewall is configured to accept input from LAN zone.

Have similar problems
br-lan with .VLAN# (br-lan.10, br-lan.333 devices)
wan port is connected to Cisco (tagged VLANs)
lan1 port is connected to Linux PC (1 untagged VLAN from br-lan.333)
i can see lldp/cdp info from OWRT on uplink (Cisco) equipment (where tagged VLANs are connected)
and on untagged lan1 port.
I don't have firewall installed at all since this is a dumb AP.
Atleast i can get info on AP on switch, but not when i check cdp/lldp neighours on AP itself.
