6. In WLAN Usage, configure the following:
• In Access Network, select the Tunnel WLAN traffic through Ruckus GRE check box if
you want to tunnel the traffic from this WLAN back to the controller. Tunnel mode enables
wireless clients to roam across different APs on different subnets. If the WLAN has clients
that require uninterrupted wireless connection (for example, VoIP devices), Ruckus Wireless
recommends enabling tunnel mode. When you enable this option, you need to select core
network for tunneling WLAN traffic back to the controller.
If you select the check box, all the WLAN traffic tunnels through the SoftGRE from the
WLAN back to the controller using Standard, Hotspot 2.0 Access, and WeChat
authentications types. If you do not select the check box, WLAN traffic tunnels through
the SoftGRE from the WLAN back to the controller using all of the authentication types.
NOTE: AP zones with IPv6 network configuration settings support tunneling WLAN traffic
through Ruckus GRE tunnel type.
• In Core Network Type (only visible if you selected the Tunnel WLAN traffic through
Ruckus GRE check box), select one of the following core network types:
• Bridge
• L3oGRE
• L2oGRE
• TTG+PDG
• PMIPv6
• Mixed Tunnel Mode
• In Authentication Type, click one of the following options:
• Standard usage (For most regular wireless networks): This is a regular WLAN suitable
for most wireless networks.
• Hotspot (WISPr): Click this option if you want to use a hotspot portal that you previously
created. For instructions on how to create a hotspot service, see Working with Hotspot
(WISPr) Portals.
NOTE: Hotspot (WISPr) applies to WLAN traffic that is tunneled and not tunneled.
• Guest Access: Click this option if you want guest users to use this WLAN. After you
create a WLAN for guest access, you can generate guest passes. For more information,
see Working with Guest Users on page 324.
NOTE: For more information about Hotspot 2.0 online signup, see the Hotspot 2.0
Reference Guide for this release.
• Web Authentication: Click this option if you want to require all WLAN users to complete
a web-based logon to this network every time they attempt to connect. See Working
with Web Authentication Portals.
• Hotspot 2.0 Access: Click this option if you want a Hotspot 2.0 operator profile that
you previously created to use this WLAN. See Working with Hotspot 2.0 Services.
