The ZON Utility issues requests via ZDP and in response to the query, the Zyxel device responds with basic
information including IP address, firmware version, location, system and model name. 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 computer.
63.11.1 LLDP
LLDP is a layer-2 protocol that allows a network device to advertise its identity and capabilities on the
local network. It also allows the device to maintain and store information from adjacent devices which
are directly connected to the network device. This helps you discover network changes and perform
necessary network reconfiguration and management.
63.11.2 ZON Commands
The following table describes the commands available for ZON. You must use the configure
terminal
command to enter the configuration mode before you can use these commands.
63.11.3 ZON Examples
This example enables LLDP discovery and displays whether LLDP discovery is enabled on the Zyxel
Device.

COMMAND DESCRIPTION
zon lldp server
Activates LLDP discovery on the Zyxel Device.
This allows you to use Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) for
discovering and configuring LLDP-aware devices in the same
broadcast domain as the Zyxel Device that you are logged into using
the web configurator.
zon lldp server tx-hold
<1..10>
Sets the multiplier used to calculate the TTL (Time To Live) value for the
transmitted LLDP packets. The TTL value determines how long the
device information can be saved on the neighbors.
LLDP TTL = the multi pl er * the LLDP transmission interval
zon lldp server tx-interval
<1..600>
Sets the interval (in seconds) at which the Zyxel Device sends a LLDP
packet to the neighbor.
zon zdp server
Activates ZDP discovery on the Zyxel Device.
show zon lldp neighbors
Displays the Zyxel Device’s neighboring devices via LLDP.
show zon lldp server config
Displays the LLDP settings.
show zon lldp server
statistics
Displays the LLDP traffic statistics.
show zon lldp server status
Displays whether LLDP discovery is enabled.
show zon zdp server status
