Disable Bonjour for Discovery

By default, the Bonjour protocol is enabled on the switch to allow for native discovery on macOS devices.
For additional security, you can disable Bonjour on the switch, preventing macOS devices from discovering
the switch.
To disable Bonjour on the switch:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired network connection, or connect directly to a switch that is off-network using
an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see

Manage the Auto Denial of Service Mode

Automatic denial of service mode (Auto DoS mode) enables all the DoS features. By default, Auto DoS
mode is enabled but you can disable it. We recommend that you keep the Auto DoS mode enabled.
The TCP and UDP ports are always enabled, but you can shut down individual ports (see
Speed and the Port Status on page 51).
