Here are a list of things to troubleshoot when a Ruckus AP is not registering to a Virtual SmartZone (VSZ) cloud controller.
- Ensure that the public IP address of the site where the AP resides is permitted through the firewall protecting the VSZ.
- Check that the AP has a valid private IP address and is pingable from the router at that site.
- SSH into the AP. default credentials are super/sp-admin). If those credentials don’t work then the AP has received its config from the controller and the zone credentials must be used.
-
- Ping an external IP address to confirm the AP can reach the internet.
- Run “get scg”
rkscli: get scg ------ SCG Information ------ SCG Service is disabled. AP is not managed by SCG. State: Not Available - busy or not running. SCI is disabled. Server List: (IP or FQDN of VSZ shows here) No SSH tunnel exists Failover List: Not found Failover Max Retry: 2 DHCP Opt43 Code: 6 Server List from DHCP (Opt43/Opt52): Not found SCG default URL: RuckusController SCG config|heartbeat|mesh status|status intervals: 300|30|300|900 SCG gwloss|serverloss timeouts: 1800|7200 ----------------------------
- If you see “SCG Service is disabled” Then run “set scg enable” and this should start the SCG service.
- If the Server List is incorrect or empty run “set scg ip {IP or FQDN goes here}” to point the AP to the VSZ
