This guide was created using the following components:

  • AP Model: Ruckus R310
  • Firmware version: 102.0.0.0.5

Contents

Click in Update Settings to save the configuration.

Walled Garden

In the same Hotspot section, you need to configure the IPs and domains allowed for access for unauthenticated users. In the Walled Garden, click Edit Settings.

Get the list of hostnames you want to enable to unauthenticated users at our documentation. For each hostname, click Add new entry, set the Walled Garden Host and click Update to save.

Local Subnet

You need to setup a local subnet to enable users to have access to the network and then to the Internet. Go to Configuration > Local Subnets and set the parameters for your subnet.

Example for Local Subnet 1:

  • Subnet: Enable
  • Local IP Address: 192.168.1.1
  • Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
  • DHCP Server: Enable
  • Starting Address: 192.168.1.100
  • Maximum DHCP Users: 50
  • Access VLAN: 1

Wireless Network

In the Wireless Network you will configure your SSID and associate it with a hotspot service and a local subnet.

Depending on your firmware version, you will have different menu items to access the Wireless settings, for example:

  • Configuration > Wireless
  • Configuration > Radio 2.4G
  • Configuration > Radio 5G

In the firmware used to write this configuration guide, we have available menu items for each device radio. For documentation purposes, we setup a Wireless Network in the Radio 2.4G, therefore we clicked in the menu Configuration > Radio 2.4G.

Common Settings

When you access the page, you will see the wireless Common settings. You don’t need to change anything here in order to setup the external captive portal.
