Hi Jason

First, thanks for your feedback, good to see somebody eventually makes use of
this port - and finds bugs...

I remember that I added command_args=${lldpd_flags} expectring I "somehow"
explicitely needed passing the arguments given in lldpd_flags to make use of
it. - After reading rc.subr(8) I agree with you that this is bogus, I'll ask a
commiter to apply your patch.

In the meantime: I don't have LLDP or CDP-capable network equipment within
reach while writing this message so I tried to see what happens with a FreeBSD
VM with 2 nics using the -I switch. I tried also on the CLI simply: "lldpd -d
-I em0" and expected lldpd to only send over em0 not em1. Then tcpdump told me
that lldp packages was sending over both em0 and em1. Neither did I see
something that remotely looked like a CDP packet when launching lldpd with -c
switch.

It would be nice if you could you confirm this behaviour, if this is a
(FreeBSD) issue and not myself looking at it the wrong way I'll point upstream
a this.

Thanks again,
Mathieu
