    Note: Ensure you log in as a valid user in the End User Account. Only valid users are authorized to activate the licenses.

    Logging into the Support Portal

    Note: If you are unable to activate the license due to account mismatch error, contact the Support Team using https://support.ruckuswireless.com/contact-us.

    After a successful login, the Activating Your Support Contract & License Code page is displayed.

    Code Validation from the Activating Your Support Contract & License Code Page

    Because you have initiated the activation process by clicking the Activation Code link in the email message, the code is populated by default.
    If you have initiated the activation process using the Activate Purchase option on the RUCKUS Support website " https://support.ruckuswireless.com", you must manually enter the activation code received in the SPA mail.

  6. Click the license entry for RUCKUS One (CLD-PROF-APSW-MSP1) to activate the license.
    Note: A single Activation Code can carry multiple assets that are part of the original purchase order and sales order. Therefore, there may be multiple line items within one Activation Code. Each line item must be activated. For example, if you have Cloud Wi-Fi, Cloud Switching, and RUCKUS One purchased under the same purchase order, you will see three entries, and each must be activated separately.
