Configuring the Access Point
Configuring for Management by ZoneDirector
NOTE:
Two different-sized grommets are supplied in the AC connector assembly kit. Use
the grommet that is appropriate to the diameter of the AC cable that you are using.
8.
Mate the boot with the cable gland, and then tighten to seal.
9.
Connect the AC cord connector that you have assembled to the AC power socket on
the AP.
10.
Connect the AC cord to an AC power source.
You have completed connecting the AP to an AC power source.
Use Power Over Ethernet
1.
Obtain a Ruckus Wireless 60W PoE injector (not supplied, part number 902-0180-XX00
where XX is the country code), which may be ordered separately.
2.
Obtain two Cat5e or better Ethernet cables.
3.
Connect one end of one Ethernet cable to the Data Out/Power Out port on the PoE
injector, and then connect the other end to the
PoE IN
port on the AP.
4.
Connect one end of the other Ethernet cable to the Data In port on the PoE injector,
and then connect the other end to ZoneDirector directly or through a hub.
5.
Connect the PoE injector to a power source.
6.
Check the
Power LED
on the side of the AP. Initially, the LED will turn
red
as the AP
powers on. After it completes the power-on sequence, the LED will turn
green
.
You have completed connecting the AP to the network and to a PoE power source.
Step 2: Connect the Access Point to the Same Subnet as
ZoneDirector
1.
Verify that the AP is powered on.
2.
Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to the
PoE IN
port on the AP.
3.
Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the same Layer 2 subnet as
ZoneDirector. The same Layer 2 subnet means that there should not be any router
between the AP and ZoneDirector.
4.
Log in to ZoneDirector, and then go to the
Monitor
>
Access Points
page.
5.
Look for the MAC address of the AP, and then check its
Status
column.
•
If automatic approval is enabled, the Status column should show
Connected
.
•
If automatic approval is disabled, click the
Allow
link that is on the same row as the
AP’s MAC address. This allows the AP to register with ZoneDirector.
