Bonjour enables the switch and its services to be discovered by using multicast
DNS (mDNS). Bonjour advertises switch services to the network and answers
queries for service types it supports, simplifying network configuration in small
business environments.
The switch advertises the following service types:
•
Cisco-specific device description (csco-sb)—This service enables clients
to discover Cisco switches and other products deployed in small business
networks.
•
Management user interfaces—This service identifies the management
interfaces available on the switch (HTTP).
When a Bonjour-enabled switch is attached to a network, any Bonjour client can
discover and get access to the management interface without prior configuration.
A system administrator can use an installed Internet Explorer plug-in to discover
the switch. The web-based switch configuration utility shows up as a tab in the
browser.
Bonjour works in both IPv4 and IPv6 networks.
To enable the switch to be discovered through Bonjour:
Click Administration > Discovery - Bonjour in the navigation window.
Select Enable.
Click Apply.
