The IP Availability Manager discovers LLDP enabled devices, and the global data structure is loaded with the connection details. This data structure is processed during the post-processing phase in the IP Availability Manager. The IP Availability Manager runs the ic-lldp-post-processor.asl file to do the post-processing.
NetworkConnections, TrunkCable, and Cable connections are created in the IP Availability Manager which processes the global data structure based on data gathered during discovery.
