Ruckus Unleashed “Configure.Me” SSID Initial Setup Security

m-akami — Mon, 16 Sep 2024 14:09:09 GMT

Hi there,

I am currently in the process of deploying multiple Ruckus R550s in my network, but I have concerns about the security of the “Configure.Me” SSID that is initially broadcast by the first AP in the Unleashed Network.

My questions are as follows:

1. Does this SSID have a client device limit? For example, when I am connected to the AP to configure it from a trusted device, does this prevent other devices from connecting to the open SSID to avoid configuration conflicts?

2. If the answer to the above is no, and assuming there is no data uplink (only power via PoE), can clients still communicate with each other through this SSID? For an example, could they ping or SSH into another device connected to the SSID over the Configure.Me Network?

3. Is there a way to stop this SSID from broadcasting entirely? For example, could I configure the APs using an Ethernet connection via the secondary port to avoid these issues altogether?

Thank you in advance for any insights. I greatly appreciate any support provided.

I have no idea which firmware I am running since I just took it out of the box. I’ll mess with it a bit more and see what I can figure out.

Whether an SSID has a client device limit depends on the specific access point (AP) and its settings. Most consumer-grade APs can support a limited number of concurrent connections, often ranging from 20 to 200 clients. However, this limit can vary based on the hardware(stickman hook) and firmware.

It will work well as long as the firmware version chosen is supporting these models.

The Ruckus R550 represents an evolution in Access Point (AP) technology - it's not just a Wi-Fi AP, it's a Wireless Technology Hub.

The Ruckus R550 is a 4 stream AP (2x2:2 in 2.4Ghz, 2x2:2 in 5GHz) that comes with Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) capable of delivering 1200Mbps in 5GHz and 574Mbps in 2.4GHz. The Ruckus R550 also comes with built-in BLE & Zigbee, and the option to expand to other IoT wireless protocols in the future.
