Bonjour for a System in Layer 3 Mode
In Layer 3 mode, each interface (VLAN, port, or LAG) can be assigned an IP
address. When Bonjour is enabled, the switch can send Bonjour Discovery
packets on all interfaces that have IP addresses. (Go to IP Configuration >
Management and IP Interface > IPv4 Interface to configure an IP address to an
interface.) You can enable Bonjour Discovery for individual interfaces.
If a interface, such as a VLAN, is deleted, Goodbye packets are sent to deregister
services the switch is advertising from the neighboring cache table within the
local network. (See the Bonjour Discovery Interface Control Table on
Administration > Discovery - Bonjour page. If the available services are changed,
those changes are advertised, deregistering services that are turned off and
registering services that are turned on. If an IP address is changed, that change is
advertised.
By default, Bonjour is enabled on all interfaces that are members of the
Management VLAN.
If Bonjour is disabled, the switch does not send any Bonjour Discovery
advertisements and it does not listen for Bonjour Discovery advertisements sent
by other devices.
To configure Bonjour when the switch is in Layer 3 mode:
STEP 1 Click > Administration > Discovery - Bonjour. The
Discovery-Bonjour Page
opens.
STEP 2 Select the interfaces to be enabled or disabled and added to or deleted from the
Bonjour Discovery Interface Control table. Bonjour Discover can only enabled on
interfaces with an IP address.
STEP 3 Click Add to enable an interface and add it to the Bonjour Discovery Interface
Control table.
