In general, if your network has VLANs deployed already, you should apply VLAN
configuration to Ruckus APs so that the configuration across the network is consistent.
Configuring NTP Server and Management VLAN
A Network Time Protocol (NTP) Server should be configured to ensure that the AP
maintains the correct time.
NTP Server
The default Ruckus Wireless NTP Server (ntp.ruckuswireless.com) can be used if you
do not have an NTP server on your network.
If you want the AP to contact a different NTP server, you can do so by going to
Configuration > Internet and entering the host name in NTP Server at the top of the
page.
Management VLAN
CAUTION! Changing the Management VLAN causes you to be immediately
disconnected from the web interface if the computer you are using is not on the same
VLAN. Do not change the Management VLAN unless your admin PC is on the same
VLAN. Otherwise, you will be disconnected and unable to connect again without factory
resetting the AP.
If you want to place this AP's management traffic into a management VLAN, enter the
VLAN ID in the Management VLAN field and then click Update Settings.
Default IP Addressing Behavior
By default, the AP is configured to automatically obtain an IPv4 address from a DHCP
server on the network.
If the AP does not detect a DHCP server, it automatically assigns itself the static IP
address 192.168.0.1 to make it easier for you to preconfigure and deploy it on your
network.
For IPv6, the Auto Configuration setting serves the same purpose as DHCP. The default
static IPv6 address is fc00::1.
Obtaining and Assigning an IP Address
There are three methods of assigning IP addresses to the AP.
See the following topics for the IP address assignment method you wish to use:
• DHCP / Auto Configuration on page 94
• Configuring Static IP on page 95
• Configuring PPPoE on page 96
