13.3.28 Bonjour Services
Access Point Statistics
Bonjour is Apple’s implementation of zero-configuration networking (Zeroconf). Zeroconf is a group of technologies that include
service discovery, address assignment and hostname resolution. Bonjour locates devices such as printers, other computers and
services that these computers offer over a local network.
Bonjour provides a general method to discover services on a local area network (LAN). It allows users to set up a network
without any configuration. Services such as printers, scanners and file-sharing servers can be found using Bonjour. Bonjour only
works within a single broadcast domain. However, with special DNS configuration, it can be extended to find services across
broadcast domains.
To view the available Bonjour Services:
1. Select the Statistics menu from the Web UI.
2. Select System from the navigation pane (on the left-hand side of the screen). Expand a RF Domain and select one of its
connected access points.
3. Select Bonjour Services.
