Upgrade
Check the AMX Web site on a regular basis for updates that can be applied to your Ruckus Wireless network
devices — to the NXA-WAPZD1000 and all your NXA-WAP1000 APs. After downloading any update
package to a convenient folder on your administrative PC, you can complete the network upgrade of both the
NXA-WAPZD1000 and APs by following the steps detailed below.
To upgrade the NXA-WAPZD1000 firmware after downloading the update package:
1.
Go to Administer > Upgrade.
2.
Under the Software Upgrade section, click Browse. The Browse dialog box appears.
3.
Browse to the location where you saved the upgrade package, and then click Open.
4.
When the upgrade file name appears in the text field, the Browse button becomes the Upgrade button.
5.
Click Upgrade.
The NXA-WAPZD1000 will automatically log you out of the Browser-Based Configuration Pages, run the
upgrade, and then restart itself. When the upgrade process is complete, the Status LED on the device (FIG. 1)
is steadily lit. You may now log back into the Browser-Based Configuration Pages as Administrator.

available.
Software Upgrade:
Select a location to save a backup of the NXA-WAPZD1000 settings.
Upgrading the NXA-WAPZD1000 and the APs will temporarily disconnect them (and
any associated clients) from the network. To minimize network disruption, performing
the upgrade procedure at an off-peak time is highly recommended.
The full network upgrade is successive in sequence. After the NXA-WAPZD1000 is
upgraded, it will contact each active AP, upgrade it, and then restore it to service.
The AP uses FTP to download firmware updates from the NXA-WAPZD1000. If you
have an access control list (ACL) or firewall between the NXA-WAPZD1000 and the
AP, make sure that FTP traffic is allowed to ensure that the AP can successfully
download the firmware update.
