4.3 Zyxel One Network (ZON) Utility

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 through 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 in a computer (Windows
operating system).
