How to Configure Ruckus R750 as a Wireless Mesh (Repeater) on vSZ 6.1 Without Ethernet Backhaul

[octavian_25]

Hello everyone,

At our organization, all our Ruckus APs are managed by Virtual SmartZone (vSZ) version 6.1.0.0.935. We want to deploy a Ruckus R750 outside the building, but we cannot run an Ethernet cable to that location. Instead, we want the R750 to act as a wireless repeater (mesh AP):

• It should get its uplink wirelessly from a nearby wired/root AP that’s already managed by vSZ.

• It should provide normal Wi-Fi access to clients.

• We’ve already got other APs managed by vSZ; this will be the first one to run on mesh.

Could someone please provide a step-by-step guide for enabling and configuring mesh on vSZ 6.1,

Thanks in advance!
