I would like to disable CDP and have noticed it is referenced in certain CLI commands in the CLI reference. However, I have been unable to find how it might be disabled globally. Is there a command to achieve this?

I guess you mean LLDP.
I know it can be disabled per interface but there seem to be a way to disable it globally.

Hope it helps.
@AEK I mean CDP. I already disabled LLDP.
So you disabled all FortiLink negotiation?
Well, if you don't need any other Fortinet equipment, that should be ok.. ;)
I don't think FortiGate supports CDP.
I know FortiSwitch does.
I'm currious: Why?
In my 30 years of working with network equipment, CDP & LLDP is one of the most valuable features in troubleshooting many issues. Especially getting remote knowledge of what equipment is connected where to what ports.
I guess because CDP is proprietary and LLDP is standard.
He already disabled LLDP.. ;)
Hello,
CDP is not listed in the list of supported RFCs:
Could you please elaborate which documentation you are referring to?
Hi @abarushka the Fortigate CLI reference manual, CDP is referenced for the management-interface parameter for config switch-controller lldp-settings. The description for the parameter states, "Primary management interface to be advertised in LLDP and CDP PDUs".
