The following information should be covered here; does the feature require any of the following:

• Specific hardware platforms/models.

  EXAMPLE: This feature is supported on all RUCKUS APs, except models E510, T305i, and T811-CM.

• Specific hardware accessories (e.g., an add-on IoT module for APs, a special SFP expansion module for a switch, a special cable, a special mounting kit etc.).
  • EXAMPLE 1: This feature is supported on all RUCKUS ICX devices with an ICX7600-1X100GQ expansion module.
  • EXAMPLE 2: This feature is supported on all RUCKUS IoT-ready APs with a RUCKUS I100 IoT module.
• Specific firmware version(s).

  EXAMPLE: This feature was introduced in FastIron release 10.0.20b and is applicable to all subsequent releases.

• Specific license(s).

  EXAMPLE: The URL filtering service requires an active license, which can be purchased from RUCKUS partners and distributors. A temporary license is also available for a limited trial period.

• Specific ports to be used/enabled.
• Special memory allocation (ROM, RAM, etc.)
• Management or configuration from another device or system. What are the related release and system requirements?
• User requirements (such as specific permissions or a specific RBAC role).
• Specific physical or location-based configurations.

  EXAMPLE: The Active-Active High Availability feature requires two to four RUCKUS Edge devices (based on the scale and redundancy needs of your network).

This section is required. This section provides general descriptions of implementation considerations, detailing how this feature will impact system OA&M interfaces and the inner workings of the network/system. This information helps the Reader determine whether the feature should be used in their specific network.

If there are no considerations, use the following default wording:

This feature has no special considerations pertaining to feature enablement or usage.

Introduce your list of considerations with the following statement:

Consider the following when configuring and using this feature:

What to describe in this section:

• Impact on user interfaces: Are there new or modified GUI fields, screens, alarms, or KPIs?

  EXAMPLE: This feature adds the Configuration Restore tab to the DETAILS area of the Switches window.

• Impact on system behavior, performance, and capacity when the feature is enabled and disabled.

  EXAMPLE: Enabling long timeout periods for wireless client sessions can lead to increased resource consumption and impact network performance, as idle or absent clients will still be considered active by the system, consuming memory and CPU resources.

• Whether the feature is meant to be used in combination with another feature or set of features.

  EXAMPLE: The SmartMesh feature is designed to be used in combination with the Zero IT Activation feature. Ensure that Zero IT Activation is enabled to simplify the deployment and management of SmartMesh networks.

• Impact on or interactions with other features: Does enabling or disabling this feature affect other features or modify their behavior?

  EXAMPLE: When Band Steering is active, it prioritizes moving clients to the optimal frequency band, which can influence how Load Balancing distributes clients across access points.

• Impact pertaining to hardware changes.

  EXAMPLE: Replacing an expansion module can result in a mismatch with the switch configuration for the previous module. For example, if a 4x10 GbE module is replaced with a 1x100 GbE module, there may be an existing configuration for port x/2/4 that no longer applies to the new module. Refer to "Resolving Module 3 Mismatches in a RUCKUS ICX 7550 Stack" for more information on fixing module misconfigurations.

If there are no best practices (recommendations), use the following default wording:

This feature has no special recommendations for feature enablement or usage.

Effective best practice examples often address the following aspects:

• Post-Deployment Revision or Maintenance

  EXAMPLE: Regularly monitor band steering performance and adjust thresholds as needed to ensure optimal client distribution across bands.

• Ensure feature reliability
  • EXAMPLE 1: Configure a secondary RADIUS server as a backup to ensure continuous authentication services in case the primary server fails.
  • EXAMPLE 2: Store RADIUS keys and port configurations in a centralized, secure location to simplify management and reduce the risk of misconfiguration.
• Simplify Troubleshooting

  EXAMPLE: Configure a backup network that does not rely on RADIUS authentication to maintain network access if the Network Policy Server (NPS) becomes unreachable.

• Enhance Performance

  EXAMPLE: Configure shorter session timeout values for wireless clients to conserve computing resources and improve overall network efficiency.

Avoid using brief, overly concise bullet points. Instead, provide comprehensive advice that clearly outlines the actions readers need to take. Each best practice should be detailed and actionable, offering clear guidance on how to implement or manage the feature effectively. For example:

• EXAMPLE 1:
  • Preferred level of detail: Monitor band steering performance regularly, and adjust thresholds as needed to ensure optimal client distribution across bands.
  • Not Preferred (too little detail): Monitor band steering.
• EXAMPLE 2:
  • Preferred level of detail: Configure a secondary RADIUS server as a backup to maintain uninterrupted authentication services if the primary server fails.
  • Not Preferred (too little detail): Set up a backup RADIUS server.

If there are no prerequisites, use the following default wording:

This feature has no prerequisites to feature enablement or usage.

The following questions provide a framework to identify essential prerequisites for the feature you are writing about:

• Do any features need to be disabled (the two features cannot coexist) or reconfigured (the other feature can remain enabled, but must be reconfigured in a specific way) before enabling/configuring this feature?

  EXAMPLE: Disable ACL mirroring before configuring VLAN filtering of mirrored packets on the ICX device. Refer to the acl-mirror-port command page in the RUCKUS FastIron Command Reference Guide for more information.

• Are there any licenses that must be purchased and installed prior to enabling/configuring this feature?
