Abstract
Methods, apparatuses, systems, and computer program products that may be based on MoCA protocols for discovering MoCA devices in a MoCA network include causing a first MoCA device to periodically send the device specific information to a second MoCA device in the MoCA network. The information may be sent, for example in a link-layer discovery protocol (LLDP) message in which the information is encoded in a type-length value (TLV) message. The information may include a MAC address of the first MoCA device, an IP address of the first MoCA device, vendor identification information, hardware identification information, hardware version information, software identification information, a software version, a name of the first MoCA device, a location of the first MoCA device, a MoCA node assigned to the first MoCA device, or the like.
