Enable Smart Redundancy
5. Enable the check box next to Enable Smart Redundancy.
6. Enter the IP address of the backup unit under Peer IP Address (if known). If you have
configured Limited ZD Discovery under Configure > Access Points > Access Point Policies,
you must identify the IP address of both ZoneDirectors that the APs should connect to when
Smart Redundancy is active. If the Limited ZD Discovery and Smart Redundancy information
you enter is inconsistent, a warning message will be displayed asking you to confirm. Note
that Ruckus recommends using the Smart Redundancy feature instead of the Limited ZD
Discovery feature whenever possible.
7. Enter a Shared Secret for two-way communication between the two ZoneDirectors (up to
15 alphanumeric characters).
8. Click Apply to save your changes and prompt ZoneDirector to immediately attempt to
discover its peer on the network.
9. If discovery is successful, the details of the peer device will be displayed to the right.
10. If discovery is unsuccessful, you will be prompted to retry discovery or continue configuring
the current ZoneDirector.
11. Install the second ZoneDirector and complete the Setup Wizard.
12. Go to Configure > System, enable Smart Redundancy and enter the primary ZoneDi-
rector's IP address in Peer IP address.
13. Click Apply. If an active ZoneDirector is discovered, the second ZoneDirector will assume
the standby state. If an active device is not discovered, you will be prompted to retry
discovery or to continue configuring the current device.
Once Smart Redundancy has been enabled, a status link is displayed at the top of the Web
interface.
