That's what I see arriving:

11:36:38.318202  In 3c:8a:b0:da:67:59 > 01:80:c2:00:00:0e, ethertype 802.1Q (0x8100), length 74: vlan 1, p 5, ethertype LLDP, LLDP, name sw-km337, length 56
        [|LLDP]

If I "delete vlans default vlan-id" on the switch, I'll stop seeing these
frames. BTW on the remote sw-km337 switch, the default vlan is untagged.
