Hello,
I've got my hand on a couple of used R350 Access Point I wish to use without external controller (I'm used to UniFi products with their "Network controller" self-hostable software): I understand "Unleashed" (where it installs a controller on one AP) is the solution.
How do I install Unleashed?
The following error occurred
Bad header Magic. Possible reasons:file corrupted or data corruption during upload
I've found an old topic with similar issue where it recommands using TFTP upgrade via CLI (https://community.ruckuswireless.com/t5/Unleashed/R350-trouble-unleashing/m-p/70395) but I'm not sure it's relevant for my situation.
As it's an used device I don't know it's currently "managed" but according to "get version" CLI command (see below) it's "Hotzone Wireless AP".
Here are some CLI command outputs:
rkscli: get version
Ruckus R350 Multimedia Hotzone Wireless AP
Version: 6.1.2.0.2230
rkscli: get scg

What are my options?
