I’m a Linux user, how can I detect my switch on the network?

I've a lot of DHCP clients on my network, is there an easy way to discover the zyxels switches for linux users?

Hi @davidargor

To discover your Zyxel switch on the network using a Linux system, you can use Nmap, a powerful network scanning tool. It allows you to scan your network and identify devices connected to it, including your Zyxel switches.

For example, you can run the following command in your terminal to scan your network:
sudo nmap -sn <your-network-range>

Replace <your-network-range> with your network's IP range, such as 192.168.1.0/24. This will return a list of devices, and you can identify your Zyxel switches by their IP address or MAC address.
