The log entry "ZDP: initial port 1 control block" indicates that the Zyxel Device Protocol (ZDP) is initializing the control block for port 1. This message is part of the system's internal process for managing and controlling network ports. It typically means that the device is setting up or resetting the network interface on port 1.

The ZDP will reinitialize in the following scenarios:

  1. When the device is rebooted.
    1.When the LAN interface or Wi-Fi interface is reset.
