0. Introduction
Ruckus Zoneflex 7372 (Ruckus ZF 7372) is a powerful Access Point (AP) that has a DHCP server inside to work as both a router and a AP. It also has the Beamflex Technology for its radio
transmission covering a wide area and more than 500 customer logins. For more detail description of the AP, please refer to
Ruckus Zoneflex 7372 Data Sheet
.
The Ruckus ZF 7372 can work together with Ruckus Zone Director when deployed in multiple units. But it can also work without the Zone Director as a stand-alone single unit or standalone
multiple units. For any question, please contact us at [email protected] or 1-747-220-0120. Getting support from the Ruckus Wireless company itself is the worst part of the company as the
company somehow likes to charge for the techsupport requested on their own products. Way to go, Ruckus!
There are two settings of the Ruckus ZF 7372 we will describe. First is when the Ruckus ZF 7372 is used with the WAD-110 or WAD-120 unit and the DHCP server inside the WAD unit is
enabled. In this case, the DHCP server inside the Ruckus ZF 7372 must be disabled and the Ruckus ZF 7372 must be configured to work as only an access point. The WAD server will control
and assign the IP addresses in the network.
The second case is when using the WAD-110 or WAD-120 unit with the DHCP server disabled inside. In this case, the DHCP server inside the Ruckus ZF 7372 must be enabled and
configured to work as a router.
For the WAD-104 unit, which does not have a DHCP server inside, the Ruckus ZF 7372 must have its DHCP server enabled and work as a router always, as in the second case.
1. How to setup the Ruckus ZF 7372 with the DHCP server enabled.
Following the Quick Setup Guide that comes in the package, connect the Ruckus ZF 7372 to a laptop or a PC. We assume that the Ruckus ZF 7372 has the factory default settings. If not,
please reset the Ruckus ZF 7372 to the factory default.
