Licensing Information

The SZ-100 comes pre-shipped with 1000 temporary AP 
Capacity Licenses, which are valid for a period of 90 days from 
when the SZ-100 is configured via the initial setup 
configuration. For operation beyond 90 days, you MUST buy 
permanent AP Capacity licenses. The purchased Licenses 
MUST be activated for them to become valid.

The management of the AP Capacity Licenses and the ability 
to activate the permanent License will be through the Ruckus 
Wireless Support Portal (https://support.ruckuswireless.com). 
An email will be sent to the User that is identified on the 
Purchase Order and full instructions as to how to activate the 

Licenses is included in the email. As a guide, full instructions 
can be found at https://support.ruckuswireless.com/activate.

Using the LiMAN (license management) portal on the Ruckus 
Wireless Support website, you can assign licenses to or from a 
SZ-100 or move them to another SZ-100 (see a summary of 
LiMAN features in 

Table 1

). To physically manage the 

distribution of licenses from the Support website to the actual 
SZ-100, do one of the following:

Connect the SZ-100 directly to the Internet.

Deploy a Ruckus Wireless Local License Server (LLS) 
within your network. The LLS must be able to 
communicate with your SZ-100 and it must be connected 
to the Internet.

NOTE: In the event that the SZ-100 is not connected to the 
Internet and you have not deployed an LLS, you can download 
the actual licenses from the Support Portal and manually 
upload to the specific SZ-100.

For step-by-step instructions on how to activate the SZ-100’s 
licenses, see 

Step 5: Activate the SZ-100’s Licenses

What You Will Need

An administrative computer (admin PC) with a connection 
to the local area network

A web browser, such as Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, 
Google Chrome or Apple Safari

The IP address, netmask, gateway and DNS server 
addresses assigned to the SZ-100 —if it has a static 
network address (recommended)

Step 1: Connect the SZ-100 to the Network

#1

Connect the SZ-100 to a convenient power source, and 
then press the power switch on the rear panel. The 

Alarm

 

LED shows a flashing red light as the SZ-100 starts up. 
When the SZ-100 has started up successfully, the 

Alarm

 

LED turns to a solid green light. 

#2

Obtain an Ethernet cable. Connect one end of the Ethernet 
cable to one of the LAN ports (port 1 or 2 recommended) 
on the SZ-100, and then connect the other end to your 
network’s switch or router.

#3

Go to the admin PC and verify that the SZ-100 is now 
discoverable on the network. 

On Windows 7 and Windows 8, go to 

Control Panel > Net-

work and Internet > View network computers and devices

and then locate the 

Network Infrastructure

 section. The 

SZ-100 should appear there.

Table 1. LiMAN features and how to activate them on the SZ-100

LiMAN Features

SZ-100 Online 
(Connected to 
the Internet)

SZ-100 Offline 
(Disconnected from the 
Internet)

• Register SZ-100 

controllers, 
licenses, sup-
port entitlement

• Add capacity 

licenses to SZ-
100 controllers

• Remove 

licenses from 
one SZ-100 and 
add to another

No action 
required. The 
SZ-100 syncs 
with LiMAN 
automatically 
within 24 hours 
and applies the 
appropriate 
licenses.

Three steps required:
1 Download the license file 

from LiMAN.

2 Log on to the SZ-100, 

and then upload the 
license file from LiMAN.

3 Download the license 

response file from the 
SZ-100, and then upload 
it to LiMAN.

NOTE

 The SZ-100 is a Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) device. 

Once you connect it to the network, it will automatically configure 
itself, obtain an IP address, and make its presence known to other 
devices on the network.

NOTE

 If you prefer not to use UPnP, you can type the IP address 

of the SZ-100 into a web browser instead. In case there is no 
DHCP server on the network, the default IP address and URL of 
the SZ-100 is http://192.168.2.2:8080 with a network mask of 
255.255.255.0. Otherwise, an IP address is assigned 
automatically from your existing DHCP service.
