The Display string may be incomplete (no spec)
Look for FIXME in the code :-)
The following information is taken from the Extreme knowledge base
(login required). Search for ESRP.
Note: The information seems to be incorrect in at least one place
(position of Vlan ID).

ESRP Packet Format:
-------------------
@ -82,6 +89,49 @@ EDP is a SNAP encapsulated frame. The top level looks like this:
The top level format is like this:
[ SNAP header ] [ EDP header] [ TLV 0 ] [ TLV 1 ] ... [ TLV N ]
Header format:
1 octet: EDP version
1 octet: reserved
2 octets: length
2 octets: checksum
2 octets: sequence #
8 octets: device id (currently 2 0 octets followed by system mac address)
TLV stands for Type, Length, Value.
Format of a TLV entry:
marker ( 1 octet): Hex 99
type ( 1 octet):
The following types are used:
Null (used as an end signal): 0
Display (Mib II display string): 1
Info (Basic system information): 2
Vlan Info : 5
ESRP : 8
Length: Length of subsequent data(2 octets)
Value: Length octets of data.
Format for Info TLV:
two octets: originating slot #
two octets: originating port #
two octets: Virtual Chassis Id (If originating port is connected to a virtual chassis).
six octets: reserved
four octets: software version
16 octets: Virtual Chassis Id connections
Format for Vlan info:
octet 0: Flags (bit 8 = 1 means this vlan has an IP interface)
octets 1,2,3: reserved.
octets 4,5: vlan Id (0 if untagged)
octets 6,7: reserved.
octets 8 - 11: Vlan IP address.
Rest of value: VLAN name.
Display string is merely length octets of the MIBII display string.
These are the structures you will see most often in EDP frames.
