Chapter 3: Getting Started
Out of the Box Configuration of ZoneDirector
When Ruckus Wireless gear is unpacked, the first piece of equipment that needs to be
configured is the ZoneDirector. The goal of the initial setup is to give the ZoneDirector a name
and to assign an IP address or tell it to use DHCP. Upon completion of the initial setup, the
ZoneDirector can be managed from any computer on the network by browsing to the device's IP
address.
1 Unpack and plug in the ZoneDirector.
2 Cable the ZD to the Ethernet.
3 Using a PC on the same LAN, open a browser and connect to the ZD using IP address
192.168.0.2 (default IP address of the Zone Director).
4 Run the
ZD’s setup wizard.
5 Alternatively, the 3000 and 5000 models have a console serial port. This can be
reached using the settings 115200 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, and no flow
control. The default password is admin/admin.
6 If there is a need to change the address of the controller from a console port, the
following commands are available:
enable (to activate privileged commands)
show sysinfo (to see IP addresses only) or show config
config system route gateway xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (to enter the default gateway
address)
config system ip address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx mmm.mmm.mmm.mmm
(x’s represent
the desired ip address for the management interface of the Zone Director and m’s
represent the subnet mask)
Connecting with the ZD through the Browser
After initial configuration, browse to the ZD by entering its IP address into the browser.
