Pre-‐condition:
Two ZD1100 forming a Smart Redundancy pair. In this document,
the Active ZD is called ZD1, standby ZD is called ZD2. APs are joined to ZD1. The ZD
release could be either 9.4.2 or higher or 9.5. The procedure to upgrade is:
1)
Uncheck the first box marked “Automatically approve all join
requests” This ensures that those installations with multiple
ZoneDirectors installed will not have APs joining the wrong
ZoneDirector.
2)
In ZD1, configure the primary and secondary Zone Director fields
with their respective IP addresses. This can be done via the ZD
GUI. Click on the “Configure” tab on the top of the page. Click on
Access point on the left side of the window. Scroll down to ”Access
Point Policies”.
3)
Click the “Apply” button on the far right. You should see a message
“your changes have been saved”. To verify the changes were
implemented, SSH into the ZD Command Line Interface and follow
this example.
IMPORTANT: Failure to follow this procedure could result in having to
replace (RMA) one of the ZoneDirectors. It is critical that the 9.5 or higher
upgrade only be performed when the ZoneDirectors are in standalone
mode. If N+1 Redundancy has been previously configured contact Ruckus
Technical Support.
