Introduction 1

Overview of the Ruckus Wireless Access Point

Congratulations on your purchase of the Ruckus Wireless AP!

Ruckus Wireless APs are the industry's most easy to use, yet robust and feature-rich

Wi-Fi APs designed to bring power and simplicity together for large-scale indoor

deployments.

Your Ruckus Wireless AP uses BeamFlex, a patented antenna technology from Ruckus

Wireless that allows wireless signals to navigate around interference, extend wireless

signal range, and increase speeds and capacity for wireless networks. The BeamFlex

antenna system consists of an array of high-gain directional antenna elements that allow

Ruckus Wireless APs to find quality signal paths in a changing environment, and sustain

the baseline performance required for supporting data, audio and video applications.

Your Ruckus Wireless AP can be deployed in standalone mode with or without a

FlexMaster (FM) manager, or as part of the Ruckus Wireless Smart WLAN system, in

which it can be managed by a Ruckus Wireless ZoneDirector or SmartZone controller.

NOTE For more information on the Ruckus Wireless system (including Ruckus Wireless

controllers and FlexMaster server), BeamFlex, and other Ruckus Wireless technologies,

visit www.ruckuswireless.com.

Unpacking the Ruckus Wireless AP

location.

Controller Discovery and Standalone Operation

Ruckus Wireless ZoneFlex Access Points can operate in either standalone mode, be

managed by FlexMaster server, or be managed by any of the Ruckus controller products.

How Standalone APs Learn Controller Addresses

If your AP will be managed by a controller, you will need some way to ensure that the

AP can discover the controller on the network. There are several different ways to do

this, and the specific controller user documents contain more details on discovery for

that particular controller product family.

This section provides a brief overview of the options available for controller discovery.

Ruckus Cloud

ZoneFlex APs discover Ruckus Cloud controllers by querying the Ruckus Cloud AP

Registrar (ap-registrar.ruckuswireless.com) via HTTPS to learn the Ruckus Cloud address.

APs will search for a Ruckus Cloud controller more frequently after initial boot up, and

less frequently after the first 14 days.

Standalone APs will query the Registrar with the following frequency:

AP UptimeQuery Frequency

1 hours ~ 48 hours5 minutes

2 days ~ 14 days1 hour

14 days ~ forever12 hours

SmartZone

APs discover SmartZone controllers using any of the following methods:

•mDNS discovery on local IP subnet

•DHCP Option 43 sub-option 6

•DHCPv6 Option 17 sub-option 6

•DHCPv6 Option 52
