Connecting the admin PC, SZ-100, and Ruckus
Wireless APs to the network
Step 5: Activate the SZ-100’s Licenses
After you set up the SZ-100 and verify that wireless clients are
able to associate with managed APs successfully, you need to
activate and assign the AP and Tunnel Licenses using the
LiMAN (license management) portal on the Ruckus Wireless
Support site.
Before You Begin
You must have a Ruckus Support portal account (including
user name and password). You can use this account to access
general Support site content including software upgrades,
knowledge base articles and technical documents.
If you do not have a Support portal account, you will be
required to register one before continuing with your product
and license activation.
Every capacity and support license that you have purchased
will have its own unique activation code and each must be
activated for the license to become valid. You will receive the
activation code in a separate Support Purchase
Acknowledgment (SPA) email for each license/support license.
Depending on the product, you may receive up to three (3)
different SPA emails for all of your licenses. The first three
characters of the activation code indicate the license type to
which the code is applicable.
