- Zone RRM Health:
AI-Driven RRM displays RRM health visibility for all zones. Apart from the
optimized and non-optimized statuses, RUCKUS AI also covers
additional scenarios such as verified, verification error, insufficient
licenses, no AP, and unqualified zone. It helps you to understand the underlying
missing configurations and optimize the network by leveraging RRM feature across
all zones. Zone RRM Health statuses are described in the table below.
Table 1. Zone RRM Health Zone RRM Health Description Optimized Indicates that the AI-driven RRM recommendation is applied to all the APs in a zone and the zone is in optimized condition. Non-Optimized Indicates that there are interfering links and co-channel interference in a zone. An AI-Driven RRM recommendation is available to improve the sub-optimal configuration. The recommendation provides an optimized choice of channel and channel width. Click the icon to apply the most recommended parameters to all the APs in the zone, which will reduce the number of interfering links and co-channel interference.
Insufficient Licenses Indicates that the license compliance requirement is not honored and the zone has insufficient licenses. AI-Driven RRM recommendations are triggered only for zones with 100 percent licensed APs. For more information on managing licenses, refer to Managing and Assigning the licenses to the APs. If you assign the missing licenses for the APs added to the zone, it will take a maximum of three days to reflect the change in the RRM Health state.
Verified Indicates that the zone is already AI verified and is in an optimal state. RUCKUS AI does not recommend any changes to the RRM configuration. It will continue to monitor the zones and raise a recommendation if an improvement is required. Verification Error Indicates that the basic prerequisites to support AI-Driven RRM are not fulfilled and certain network configurations are not aligned with AI-Driven RRM considerations. For example, this status is displayed when there is insufficient data for RUCKUS AI to generate RRM recommendations. RUCKUS AI requires at least 4 days of data to train its AI models. Unqualified Zone Indicates that the venue does not meet the required criteria or standards to support AI-Driven RRM. This status is displayed in the following scenarios: - When more than 20% of the Access Points (APs) in the zone have configurations with AP overrides.
- When the zone has mesh configuration enabled.
No APs Indicates that there are no APs in the zone. - Date: Displays the date and time when the recommendation was created.
- Summary: Displays a short description for the RRM health statuses.
- Zone: Displays the affected zone name.
- Status: Displays the status of the recommendation. The status is New when the recommendation is available but not applied. The status changes to Scheduled after you have scheduled to apply the recommendation. It changes to Applied after the scheduled recommendation has applied the change. If applying the recommendation fails, the status changes to Failed. The status changes to Reverted if a recommendation was previously applied but subsequently reverted. Every state change triggers an email message to the network administrator providing information about the status. For more information, refer to Table 2.
- Full Optimization:
Allows you to toggle between full optimization and partial optimization. By
default, full optimization is enabled. RRM recommendation with full optimization
considers channel plan, channel bandwidth, and Tx power to optimize the zone.
Turn off the toggle button to choose partial optimization and only the channel plan is considered for optimization. RRM recommendation with partial optimization does not consider channel bandwidth and Tx power. When you turn off the toggle button to select partial optimization, the RRM item will be greyed out and a new recommendation is generated within the next 24 hours only if a better channel plan for the zone is available.
When a recommendation is in the Applied, Scheduled, or Apply Scheduled status, the toggle button is greyed out and you cannot change the optimization criteria. In such a scenario, you must first revert the recommendation state to New before changing the optimization criteria.
Status | Description | Possible Actions |
---|---|---|
New | Recommendation is available. Schedule a day and time to apply the recommendation. | Apply or Mute |
Scheduled | Recommendation has been scheduled. | Edit Schedule or Revert |
Applied | Recommendation has been successfully applied and RUCKUS AI will monitor this configuration change for the next seven days. | Revert or Mute |
Failed | An error was encountered when the recommended configuration change was applied and no configuration change was made. | Revert or Mute |
Interrupted (Recommendation is not applied) | RUCKUS AI has detected a manual configuration change in the SmartZone controller that may interfere with this recommendation. The scheduled recommendation is canceled. Manually check if the recommendation is valid. | Apply or Mute |
Interrupted (Recommendation is applied) | RUCKUS AI has detected a manual configuration change in the SmartZone controller that may interfere with this recommendation. Results from the monitoring of this configuration change may not be relevant. Manually check if the recommendation is valid. | Revert or Mute |
Revert | RUCKUS AI has detected a degradation in network performance after the application of the recommended configuration. Recommended to immediately revert to previous configuration settings. | Revert or Mute |
Revert Scheduled | A reversion to undo the configuration change has been scheduled. | Scheduled |
Revert Failed | An error was encountered when the reversion was applied. No reversion was made. Revert the configuration manually from the controller. | Revert, Mute, or Delete |
Reverted | A reversion has been successfully applied. After successful reversion, RRM will evaluate the network conditions and, if necessary, will generate a new recommendation after 24 hours. | Mute |
Insufficient Licenses | License compliance requirement is not honored and the zone has insufficient licenses. | Manage and assign licenses to the APs. For more information on managing licenses, refer to Managing and Assigning the licenses to the APs |
Verification Error | Basic prerequisites to support AI-Driven RRM is not fulfilled and
certain network configurations are not aligned with AI-Driven RRM
considerations. Other reasons include:
|
Mute |
Verified | The zone is already AI verified and is in an optimal state. | Mute |
Unqualified Zone | Indicates that the venue does not meet the required criteria or
standards to support AI-Driven RRM. This status is applied in the
following scenarios:
|
Mute |
No APs | There are no APs in the zone. | Mute |

Applying a Recommendation
- On the navigation bar, click AI-Driven RRM page is displayed. . The
- In the AI-Driven RRM table, click on the radio button of a new recommendation.
- Click Apply
displayed at the top of the AI-Driven RRM table.
A calendar prompt is displayed to schedule the action.
- Select the date and time in the calendar to
schedule the time at which you want to apply the recommendation.
You can select any date up to 30 days in the future and specify a time for the recommendation to be applied. Choose off-peak hours, when the number of Wi-Fi clients are at a minimum, to apply the changes. The chosen time will be stored and applied to future RRM changes if RUCKUS AI determines that a more optimal configuration is available. The time you select is based on your browser's timezone. If the APs you are applying this recommendation to are in a different timezone, adjust accordingly to ensure the change occurs during off-peak hours.
- Click Apply to
enable the recommendation to be applied at the scheduled time.
Once scheduled, the action options are updated to include the ability to adjust the schedule or cancel the action.
