1About This Installation Guide

This Installation Guide provides information on how to set up the Cable Modem Access

Point (CMAP) on your network. Topics covered in this guide include installation, basic

configuration, operation, and device mounting.

This guide is intended for use by those responsible for installing and setting up network

equipment. Consequently, it assumes a basic working knowledge of local area networking,

cable modem setup and configuration, wireless networking, and wireless devices.

NOTE: The cable modem and access point each have its own independent firmware load

that are updated independently.

Related Documentation

In addition to this guide, each Cable Modem Access Point documentation set includes

the following:

■User Guide: Provides detailed information on how to configure the functions of the

unit. The User Guide is available for download on the Ruckus Wireless Support Web

site at:

http://support.ruckuswireless.com/documents

■Release Notes: Provides late-breaking information about the current software release,

including new features, enhancements, and known issues. If the information in the

Release Notes differs from the information in this guide, follow the instructions in the

Release Notes.

■Online Help: Accessible from the CMAP’s Web interface, the Online Help provides

information that helps you configure the device from the Web interface.

Using ZoneDirector to Manage the CMAP

If you are planning to use a Ruckus Wireless ZoneDirector to manage the CMAP, this guide

describes the required steps that will enable the access point to report to and

communicate with ZoneDirector successfully. Refer to “Configure Option 43 on the DHCP

Server (ZoneDirector Management Only)” on page 16.

Terms Used in This Guide

Before continuing, Ruckus Wireless recommends that you become familiar with the

following terms:

■Access Point (AP): The Wi-Fi component of the Cable Modem Access Point (CMAP).

Unpacking the CMAP

Package Contents

■Cable Modem (or CM): The cable modem component of the Cable Modem Access

Point (CMAP).

■Cable Modem Access Point (or ZF7761CM): The whole unit, which includes the CM

and AP, as well as the power supply.

2Unpacking the CMAP

1. Open the CMAP package, and then carefully remove the contents.

2. Return all packing materials to the shipping box, and put the box away in a dry location.

3. Verify that all items listed in Package Contents below are included in the package.

Check each item for damage. If any item is damaged or missing, notify your authorized

Ruckus Wireless sales representative.

Package Contents

A complete ZoneFlex 7761CM package contains all of the items listed below:

■ZoneFlex 7761CM unit

■Three N-type 5GHz external antennas

■Service Level Agreement / Limited Warranty Statement

■Regulatory Statement

■This Installation Guide

NOTE: The CMAP comes preinstalled with the cable strand interface, which you will use

to mount the assembly onto the cable strand. You only need to attach the three external

antennas to the cable strand interface (after mounting the CMAP on the strand) to

complete the assembly. See “Installing the Antennas” on page 45 for more information.

3Preparing for Installation

This section describes the tasks that you need to perform before proceeding with the

installation. The required tasks depend on whether you are deploying the access point as

a standalone device or as a ZoneDirector-managed device.

■Preconfiguring the Access Point (Standalone Only)

■Configure Option 43 on the DHCP Server (ZoneDirector Management Only)

NOTE: A standalone access point refers to a device that is not managed by Ruckus

Wireless ZoneDirector or Ruckus Wireless FlexMaster.

Preconfiguring the Access Point (Standalone Only)

If you are deploying the access point as a standalone device, Ruckus Wireless strongly

recommends that you preconfigure (or “stage”) the unit before mounting it. It is more

convenient to connect the administrative computer to the access point and configure the

device in the lab than when the device is already mounted on the cable strand.

Preconfiguring the access point requires the following tasks to be completed:

■Step 1: Prepare the Administrative Computer

■Step 2: Supply Power to the CMAP

■Step 3: Log Into the Access Point’s Web Interface

■Step 4: Configure the Wireless Settings

■Step 5: Disconnect the CMAP from the Administrative Computer

■Step 6: Restore the Administrative Computer’s Network Settings

Before starting, prepare the following requirements:

■DC power supply (see DC Power Supply in “Connectors” on page 31)

■One Ethernet cable

■An administrative computer (any computer running Windows that you will use to

preconfigure the access point)

Preparing for Installation

Preconfiguring the Access Point (Standalone Only)

Step 1: Prepare the Administrative Computer

NOTE: The following procedures are applicable if the administrative computer is running

on Windows XP. If you are using a different operating system, refer to the documentation

7. Write down all of the currently active network settings. You will need this information

later when you restore your computer to its current network configuration.

8. On the General tab, Click Use the following IP address, and then configure the IP

address settings with the values listed in Table 2 . For a sample configuration, refer to

Figure 3.

9. Click OK to save your changes and close the Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)
