Configuring the Access Point
Configuring Internet Settings
Each of the AP's wireless interfaces can be assigned a single VLAN. When a packet
enters the AP through its wireless interface, the packet is assigned to the Access VLAN
configured on the Configuration > Wireless page (by default, 1).
AP Ethernet ports however, can be configured to pass all VLAN traffic (Trunk Ports) or
multiple specific VLANs (General ports).
The VLAN displayed in the Web interface shows the AP's view of the VLAN environ-
ment; when a packet arrives at an AP's Ethernet port, the port's VLAN configuration
helps determine if the packet is accepted or not (VLAN membership), and assign a
default VLAN (untagged VLAN) if the packet contains no 802.1Q header.
In general, if your network has VLANs deployed already, you should apply VLAN
configuration to Ruckus APs so that the configuration across the network is consistent.

Configuring NTP Server and Management VLAN

NTP Server
A Network Time Protocol (NTP) Server should be configured to ensure that the Access
Point maintains the correct time. The default Ruckus Wireless NTP Server (ntp.ruck-
uswireless.com) can be used if you do not have an NTP server on your network.
If you want the AP to contact a different NTP server, you can do so by going to
Configuration > Internet and entering the host name in NTP Server at the top of
the page.
Management VLAN
Changing the Management VLAN will cause you to be immediately
CAUTION:
disconnected from the Web interface if the computer you are using is not on the same
VLAN. Do not change the Management VLAN unless your admin PC is on the same
VLAN, or you will be disconnected and unable to connect again without factory
resetting the AP.
If you want to place this AP's management traffic into a management VLAN, enter the
VLAN ID in the Management VLAN field and click Update Settings.

Default IP Addressing Behavior

By default, the Access Point is configured to automatically obtain an IPv4 address from
a DHCP server on the network. If the Access Point does not detect a DHCP server, it
automatically assigns itself the static IP address 192.168.0.1 to make it easier for
you to preconfigure and deploy it on your network.
For IPv6, the Auto Configuration setting serves the same purpose as DHCP. The
default static IPv6 address is fc00::1.
