8.11 Cloud Management
The Zyxel Nebula Control Center (NCC) is a cloud-based network management system that allows you
to remotely manage and monitor Zyxel Nebula APs, Ethernet switches and security gateways.
The Switch is managed and provisioned automatically by the NCC (Nebula Control Center) when:
• It is connected to the Internet.
• The
Nebula Control Center Discovery feature is enabled.
• It has been registered in the NCC.
This screen displays links to Nebula Control Center Discovery where you can have the Switch search for
the NCC (Nebula Control Center) and to Nebula Switch Registration which has a QR code containing
the Switch’s serial number and MAC address for handy registration of the Switch at NCC.

Select Active to turn on NCC discovery on the Switch. If the Switch has Internet access and has been
registered in the NCC, it will go into cloud management mode.
In cloud management mode, NCC will first check if the firmware on the Switch needs to be upgraded. If
it does, the Switch will upgrade the firmware immediately. If the firmware does not need to be
upgraded, but there is newer firmware available for the Switch, then it will be upgraded according to
the firmware upgrade schedule for the Switch on the NCC. Below is the process for upgrading firmware:
1
Download firmware through the NCC.
2
Upgrade the firmware and reboot.
Note: While the Switch is rebooting, do NOT turn off the power.
Clear Active to turn off NCC discovery on the Switch. The Switch will NOT discover the NCC and remain
in standalone mode.
