Installing the AP
Step 1: Preconfiguring the AP
Ruckus Wireless Indoor AP 100.2.0 User Guide, 800-70892-001 Rev A 82
Configuring the AP for Management by ZD
When your Ruckus Wireless network is managed by a ZD controller, you can
manage APs using the controller rather than individually logging into each AP’s Web
interface. If ZoneDirector is installed on the network, then follow the instructions in
the ZoneDirector User Guide and connect the AP to your network. The AP finds the
ZD, and then downloads the ZD-compatible AP image from the controller.
NOTE The AP must have some way of obtaining an IP address (IPv4 DHCP or IPv6
Auto Configuration).
Configuring the AP for Standalone Operation or for
Management by FM
This section describes the steps you need to complete to set up the AP in standalone
mode or to be managed by a Ruckus Wireless FlexMaster server, if you have one
installed on the network. Continue with the following:
1. Collecting the Required Materials
2. Preparing the Administrative Computer
3. Connecting the AP to the Administrative Computer
4. Logging Into the AP’s Web Interface
5. Configuring the Wireless Settings
6. Disconnecting the AP from the Administrative Computer
7. Restoring the Administrative Computer’s Network Settings (Optional)
1. Collecting the Required Materials
