Setting the System Time
The NXA-WAPZD1000 does not have an internal clock, and if the device is rebooted, it will lose the current
time given to it by the configuring PC. Time-sensitive features--such as time-based WLANs and Smart
Redundancy--will not function properly if the time is incorrect. Therefore, pointing the device to an NTP
(Network Time Protocol) server, is recommended.
To link your NXA-WAPZD1000 to an NTP server:
1.
Go to Configure > System.
2.
The System Time features have the following options:
Refresh: Click this to update the NXA-WAPZD1000 display (a static snapshot) from the internal
clock.
Synch Time with your PC Now: If needed, click this to update the internal clock with the current
time settings from your administration PC.
Use NTP... (Enabled by default): Clear this check box to disable this option, or enter the DNS name
or IP address of your preferred NTP server to use a different one.
3.
Click Apply to save the results of any resynchronization or NTP links.
Setting the Country Code
Different countries and regions maintain different rules that govern which channels can be used for wireless
communications. Setting the Country Code to the proper regulatory region ensures that your network does not
violate local and national regulatory restrictions, and the Browser-Based Configuration Pages can be used to
define the country code for all APs under its control.
To set the Country Code to the proper location:
1.
Go to Configure > System.
2.
Locate the Country Code section, and choose your location from the pull-down menu.
3.
Click Apply to save your settings.
Enabling Management via FlexMaster
If you have a Ruckus Wireless FlexMaster server installed on the network, you can enable FlexMaster
management to centralize monitoring and administration of the NXA-WAPZD1000 and other supported
devices. The NXA-WAPZD1000 supports the following FlexMaster-deployed tasks:
Firmware upgrade for both the NXA-WAPZD1000 and the APs that report to them
Reboot
Backup of NXA-WAPZD1000 settings
When the FlexMaster management option is enabled, you will still be able to access the Browser-Based
Configuration Pages to perform other management tasks. By default, FlexMaster management is disabled.
To enable FlexMaster management
1.
Click Configure > System.
2.
Scroll down to the bottom of the page.
3.
If you see + Network Management (section is collapsed) at the bottom of the page, click the Network
Management link to expand the section.
4.
Under FlexMaster Management (bottom of the page), select the Enable management by FlexMaster
check box.
5.
In URL, type the FlexMaster DNS host name or IP address of the FlexMaster server.
6.
In Interval, type the time interval (in minutes) at which the device will send status updates to the
FlexMaster server. The default interval is 15 minutes.
7.
Click Apply. The message Setting Applied appears.
Configuring SNMP Support
The NXA-WAPZD1000 provides support for Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) v2, which
allows you to query NXA-WAPZD1000 information, such as system status, WLAN list, AP list, and clients
list, and to set a number of system settings. You can also enable SNMP traps to receive immediate notifications
for possible AP and client issues.
