Hello Simon, I call the LLDP transmit function lldp_raw(struct netif *netif, const struct eth_addr *ethsrc_addr) with the MAC address of the port. So if there are multiple ports each with its MAC address, then that can be resolved by the 2nd argument of the function.
Also if we put the use restriction of a single port, wouldn't that work also?
