5.3 ZyXEL One Network (ZON) Utility Screen
ZON Utility is a program designed to help you deploy and manage a network more efficiently. It
detects devices automatically and allows you to do basic settings on devices in the network without
having to be near it.
The ZON Utility issues requests via ZyXEL Discovery Protocol (ZDP) and in response to the query,
the device responds back with basic information including IP address, firmware version, location,
system and model name in the same broadcast domain. The information is then displayed in the
ZON Utility screen and you can perform tasks like basic configuration of the devices and batch
firmware upgrade in it. You can download the ZON Utility at www.zyxel.com and install it on a PC.
The following figure shows the ZON Utility screen.

5.4 ZON Neighbor Management Screen
The ZON Neighbor Management screen allows you to view and manage the Switch's neighboring
devices more conveniently. It uses Layer Link Discovery Protocol (LLDP) to discover all neighbor
devices connected to the Switch including non-ZyXEL devices. You can perform tasks on the
neighboring devices like login, reboot (turn the power off and then back on again), and reset to
factory default settings in the Neighbor Management screen. For more information on LLDP, see
Section 35.2 on page
