Upgrading Application Signature Package
AP DPI feature uses an Application
Signature Package that in general it can be optionally updated when a new version
is
available.
Note: As R5.1.x to R6.1 release upgrade is not supported, RUCKUS does not have any
signature-package upgrade restrictions during zone upgrade.
There are two types of Application Signature Package files available in the Support site:
- Regular Signature package: This package can be used for any scenario but is required if you intend to use the Client Virtual ID Extraction feature available in WLAN configuration. This type of file is not supported by 802.11ac Wave 1 AP running firmware prior to 6.0.
- Non-regular Signature package: This package can be used for any other scenario and is compatible with any supported AP model and firmware version.
This package can be updated to the latest available version that is suggested by the controller or to a file downloaded from RUCKUS download center.
Complete the following steps to update the signature package in all APs in a cluster.
