A Sup720 running SXI with subinterfaces will send LLDP frames in each
VLAN it seems, or at least that's what a neighboring 3560 seems to
think:

 Switch1#show lldp nei

     (R) Router, (B) Bridge, (T) Telephone, (C) DOCSIS Cable Device
     (W) WLAN Access Point, (P) Repeater, (S) Station, (O) Other

The Sup720 will see just one neighbor:

 SomeRouter#show lldp neighbors Gi4/6
 Capability codes:
     (R) Router, (B) Bridge, (T) Telephone, (C) DOCSIS Cable Device
     (W) WLAN Access Point, (P) Repeater, (S) Station, (O) Other

This is a bit annoying IMHO.
