Hello,
If the unleashed master detects that the internet is down, it disables all SSIDs. (ive noticed this functionality across all Unleashed FW Versions , and over past several years of unleashed)
(this function being forced ON is unique to ruckus + unleashed only, and not other manufactures in my experience- on ruckus ZD and vSZ line you can disable this. on standalone FW it does not exist in the first place (good!) ).
Is there anyway to disable this on Unleashed FW? (even if via cli?)
I dont understand how this is a feature being enabled is helpful, in fact it causes many problems, such as:
If ISP internet is out, almost always the local DHCP-server is still live (the defGW / main router) , thus devices are still getting IPs and communicate intranet with each other.
as a result of ruk/unleashed turning off SSIDs:
I simply dont see any rational/upside to this function being forced upon users.
If Ruckus wants to make it a feature that can enabled/disabled - fine (actually that would be the best case, as some may have a usecase for this, but most would not want it).
Perhaps i am missing something? if so, please let me know.
Thank you!

thanks vesalius, i also generally try to use Static-IPs on all APs as well.
I did want to link to this thread, as a possible solution for others with this issue. (possible fix is to DISABLE the internet-check via a CLI command) see here:
