Hi Roy,

You can see which models 9.6.1 supports by downloading the release notes of that version.

But if you upgrade to a more recent version your ZD1100 can support more models.

Kind regards
Martin

Martin is absolutely correct.

Caveat: If you decide to upgrade (usually a very good thing) be if an older model is not supported in those release notes it will not work with your ZD. There is no "legacy" mode for old kit. Careful.

I've got $.02 too. If you're running 9.6.1 on your ZD1100 today, you can have all legacy APs,
2942/2741, 7025/7055, 734x, 7363, 735x, 7372, 7962, 7982, and outdoor 776x, 778x, or 8800.

We recommend version 9.8.3.0.44 (MR3) for ZD1100 users, that will support all those APs
(except 2942) and will have the most bug fixes and feature enhancements.

You can upgrade your ZD1100 as high as version 9.10, unless you have 7962/7762 model APs,
not supported after 9.9, or 7025s not supported in 9.10. Version 9.10.2 (MR2) is the current
release. Read the release notes for the backward upgrade path from your 9.6.1.

The upside to upgrading, are new model AP support.
R700      supported in 9.8
T300/T301   supported in 9.8.1
R500/R600 supported in 9.9
H500            supported in 9.10

Hi guys,

Does upgrading a firmware require payment?
Thanks again for the reply.

unknown

No - the firmware doesn't.
I'm assuming you have a ruckus login that gets you to the relevant firmware download page.

Licences required for ZD and the number of APs you are running.

Is there a firmware upgrade to the AP? Will it work if we upgrade the firmware of the old AP's?

unknown

The firmware of the ZD determines all AP firmware.
If you upgrade the ZD the APs pick that up and upgrade to same level (assuming APs are on the supported types list in release notes of the upgrading firmware).

APs and ZD can only work together when on same firmware.

In a ZD environment the ZD controls firmware upgrading to APs, you do not do them separately.

Possuo uma Controller ZD 1100 e adquiri AP ́s R610. Caso atualize o firmware, seria possível utilizá-los usando a Controller ?? Obrigado.
