Set MTU on Ruckus R500

Hi everyone,

I hope you're all doing well.

Does anyone know how to set the MTU on the R500 AP via CLI?

I have done this before years ago but cant remember how to do it.

Hi @bnelSA
Below is the format for setting the MTU on the AP CLI

set mtu {<ifname>|wan|l2tp|gre} <mtu value>

Example
set mtu eth0 1200

Thank you. And is this done from config mode?

Hi @bnelSA
This will be done from the normal cli mode (rkscli) which shows as below
rkscli: set mtu eth0 1200

I tried but it doesn’t seem to work.

I keep getting command not recognised. How do I get into rkscli?

when I ssh into device, tried from there. Tried enable, config and system. Same result

If my understanding is correct you are using Unleashed in the network.

In that case, try below commands, it should work:

ruckus> en

ruckus# ap-mode

You have all rights in this mode.

ruckus(ap-mode)# set mtu eth0 1200

That’s the part I was missing. Thank you so much Vasanth.
