Whoo! Upgrading now 🙂

I couldn't help but notice, the CLI reference guide shows that it's possible to force 802.3at PoE+ mode on a per-AP basis at the ZD level, which ought to work better than the old method of SSHing into an AP on each cold boot and applying it. Given the numerous threads about folks with PoE+ capable switches/injectors but a nonfunctional LLDP implementation at the switch, I'm sure many folks will appreciate this....


There also seems to be an option that's R710/T710 specific where you can set the number of 2.4GHz radio chains in 802.3af mode. It seems to default to 2, but allows values up to 4. What's the upside/downside to adjusting these values?

Thanks John, the R710/T710 can default down to 2 streams on 2.4G when AP has only 802.3af power.

Cool — that seems a bit different from the original pre-9.13 behavior right? IIRC 802.3af mode was previously described as 3ss and a couple dBm reduced tx power.


But at any rate: What's the downside of increasing / decreasing the number of streams? I presume Ruckus chose 2 as a default for good reason!

Is secure Captive Portal (HTTPS) only for Guest Access or does it also support anything that uses ZD's internal Captive Portal/Web authentication?
