First time we are working with an ISP and programming a MPLS circuit or “Vlan product” or “ring” which ever you want to call it. Any suggestions or help programming both the switch and the core? 

Setting up Ruckus and at&t gateway together with same SSID

Posted on 10 Sep, 2020, in Uncategorized

I have a Lennar home with Ruckus r510 and ICX 7150 C12P. I am using it’s SSID for all my wi-fi needs. I have internet through at&t and the gateway is also broadcasting a wi-fi SSID that is different than the Ruckus AP. Can I turn the wi-fi off on my gateway? Is this the correct configuration? I want the at&t gateway to have the same SSID so I can get extended coverage…how do I set it up? Does my at&t gateway need to be the primary wi-fi and Ruckus be the bridge? or vice-versa? Also, when the Amazon guy activated the smart home he did not leave any user name and password to get into the Ruckus admin settings. I can get to the unleashed login page but the default user name super/sp-admin does not work. Please help!!!

Unleashed connection to ICX

Posted on 10 Sep, 2020, in Uncategorized

Just updated my AP in my local test system here to 200.8.10.3.243, attached to an ICX 7150-C08P (also updated to 8.0.92).  In the Unleashed interface, we can now get status from the ICX switch, which is a nice feature.  When I tried to set this up today, it won’t let me login, tells me my username & password is incorrect.  SSH is enabled (should be by default on 8.0.90) , and I assigned it credentials.  when I login to the switch via SSH through putty it connects just fine.  Any ideas on why it should fail via the unleashed interface?

New Village Builders / Lennar Home – Ruckus and Xfinity Setup

Posted on 10 Sep, 2020, in Uncategorized

Hello I just bought a Lennar Home and it come with the Ruckus and wireless access point. Being a networking noob and with the covid situation causing Amazon appointments 30-45 days away, I have to do DIY install to ensure I get internet in the house !  I have ordered an Arris Surfboard 6183 and TP Link 1750 modem and router for the home and we’ll have xfinity internet. Can someone please help me on how to get the setup working? i.e. where do i connect the model to the co-ax cable? The documentation I received from the builder shows – gateway to Ruckus ethernet connection, but nowhere it talks about connecting the co-axial cable to the modem. I have attached a picture of how our box looks now. I need help telling which where to place the modem and which coaxial cable to use to connect it? I believe once i get the modem hooked up then i can use the TP Link to connect to the modem and then hardwire the ruckus to the TP Link router,  Appreciate any help that I can get !

ICX 7150 Stacking Issues on 8.0.92 with SmartZone

Posted on 10 Sep, 2020, in Uncategorized

I am attempting to deploy a new environment and I have a fresh ICX 7150 stack (two switches) that are having problems.I don’t know if I have a bad unit so I wanted to check with the community to see if anyone else has stacked switches on 8.0.92 or 8.0.92c.First, once the stack is created, and after a period of a few hours, I can no longer configure the stack using the SmartZone 100. I get “Switch configuration update failed” alarms. Eventually the active member will reset its configuration and go back to factory defaults. It loses everything, the SZ configuration too.I currently have an open ticket with support. They have suggested that I downgrade the firmware to 8.0.90f. I will try that later today but first wanted to check with the community in case anyone else is seeing odd behavior with ICX stacks, firmware 8.0.92, and SZ100 (on 5.2.0.0.685).

There is any password restriction for ssh in ICX7150/7250 switches?

Posted on 10 Sep, 2020, in Uncategorized

We have a new standard from our Project Managers regarding users passwords in ICX7150/7250 Switches. They want us to use something like !P@ssw0rd! (with some characters between exclamation mark) but is not working for SSH. They works with the ! as enable password.I removed the first ! and it worked. So, I’m thinking about some restrictions for ssh password characters.We are connecting via SSH from other ICX Switch.eg.: username hector password !P@ssw0rd! – Doesn’t worksusername hector password P@ssw0rd! – DOES WorksThere is any document about ssh password guidelines?Thanks in advance for your attention.Regards
