Licensing Information
The SZ100 comes pre-shipped with 1000 temporary AP Capacity
Licenses, which are valid for a period of 90 days from when the
SZ100 is configured via the initial setup configuration. For
operation beyond 90 days, you MUST buy permanent AP Capacity
licenses. The purchased Licenses MUST be activated for them to
become valid.
The management of the AP Capacity Licenses and the ability to
activate the permanent License will be through the RUCKUS
Support Portal (https://support.ruckuswireless.com). An email
will be sent to the User that is identified on the Purchase Order
and full instructions as to how to activate the Licenses is included
in the email. As a guide, full instructions can be found at https://
support.ruckuswireless.com/activate.
Using the LiMAN (license management) portal on the RUCKUS
Support website, you can assign licenses to or from a SZ100 or
move them to another SZ100 (see a summary of LiMAN features
in
). To physically manage the distribution of licenses from
the Support website to the actual SZ100, do one of the following:
• Connect the SZ100 directly to the Internet.
• Deploy a RUCKUS Local License Server (LLS) within your
network. The LLS must be able to communicate with your
SZ100 and it must be connected to the Internet.
– LLS should first synchronize with the license server in the
cloud to get the required license (as per the SZ100 serial
number)
– Remove licenses from one SZ100 to add to another
NOTE: NOTE: In the event that the SZ100 is not connected to
the Internet and you have not deployed an LLS, you can
download the actual licenses from the Support Portal and
manually upload to the specific SZ100.
