vSZ-D count number of tunnels for remote sites

Liinad

Hello,

I can't seem to find the answer to this. From the documents that I read a vSZ-D can support 10000 tunnels but it wasn't clear to me how to count those tunnels. 

Theoretical scenario: I am using 1000 off-site APs that are broadcasting 3 SSIDs each. All trafic is being tunneled to my vSZ-D. How many tunnels would need to be created? 

My understanding is that I require 1 tunnel per SSID per AP so 3x1000=3000. Is this correct and if not can someone explain to me how to count them correctly?

Hi liinad,

Yes - if you have 1000 AP's with one or more Tunneled WLAN/SSID then the DP/vDP will be terminating 1000 tunnels.  It is one Tunnel per AP and Tunnel is only created when one or more WLAN/SSID are configured for rGRE (Ruckus GRE) tunnels.

I hope this answers your question.

Thanks for choosing RUCKUS products.
