Configuring the Access Point
This chapter provides instructions for configuring ZoneFlex access points in a stand-
alone environment. If you will be managing your ZoneFlex network using ZoneDi-
rector, refer to the ZoneDirector User Manual, available in PDF format from the Ruckus
website, at http://support.ruckuswireless.com/documents
.
Configuring the Device Settings
Device settings refer to the device name, temperature update, and service provider
login settings. (Temperature update is only available on certain ZoneFlex models.)
To configure the system settings
1. Go to Configuration > Device. The Configuration :: Device page appears.
2. In Device Name, type a new name for the device or leave as is to accept the default
device name (RuckusAP). The device name identifies the AP among other devices
on the network.
3. In Device Location, type the address or location where the device is deployed.
4. In GPS Coordinates, type the latitudinal and longitudinal coordinates of the
device location.
5. In Temperature Update, specify how often you want the AP to update its
temperature information on the Status > Device page. The default update interval
is 30 seconds.
