September 2026 Release Information
New Features
The following software features are introduced in this release.
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Expanded Zero-Touch Provisioning for Access Points and Switches | RUCKUS One now supports zero-touch provisioning for access points and switches in both RUCKUS end-customer (REC) and Managed Service Provider (MSP) accounts. Purchased devices can be automatically added to Pending Assets or imported using a CSV file, then claimed to a Venue to simplify device onboarding and deployment. |
| Wired Service Validation for ICX Networks | Service Validation now supports RUCKUS ICX wired infrastructure, enabling automated VLAN-level health checks across configurable switch hierarchies. It also provides end-to-end network validation for DHCP, DNS, Ping, and Traceroute services, with On Demand, daily, weekly, or monthly scheduling options. |
Enhancements
The following enhancements are introduced in this release.
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| BCC Recipients for Scheduled Data Studio Reports | When creating or editing schedules for user-created Data Studio dashboards and charts, you can specify BCC recipients. BCC recipients receive scheduled reports without their email addresses being visible to other recipients. |
| SLE Terminology Update Across RUCKUS AI and RUCKUS One | RUCKUS AI and RUCKUS One now use the term Service Level Expectation (SLE) instead of Service Level Agreement (SLA) across Health dashboards, configuration panels, and reports. This update aligns the terminology with industry standards while maintaining the existing functionality and metrics. |
| Custom Alerts for Critical Port Down Events | RUCKUS One now supports custom alerting for port down events. You can create alerts to monitor port status changes and receive notifications when a switch port becomes unavailable. |
| Bulk ONT Profile Assignment for ONUs | RUCKUS One now allows you to manually apply an Optical Network Terminal (ONT) profile to multiple selected ONUs. This simplifies profile management and helps ensure consistent configuration across Optical Network Units (ONUs). |
| Custom Threshold and Event-Based Switch Alarms | RUCKUS One now supports custom alarms based on configurable thresholds and switch events. You can create alarms for conditions such as routing table usage and CPU utilization, as well as events such as BGP neighbor status changes, loss of BGP prefixes, and spanning tree root bridge changes. |
| PoE Power Cycling for Switch Ports | RUCKUS One now supports PoE power cycling on selected switch ports. You can remotely restart power delivery to connected PoE devices, helping to restore service without requiring physical access to the switch. |
| Directory Server Authentication Support in Configuration Templates | RUCKUS One configuration templates now support captive portal networks that authenticate against an Active Directory or LDAP server. A new Directory Server profile template is available for both RUCKUS end-customer (REC) and Managed Service Provider (MSP) accounts, simplifying the deployment of directory-based authentication settings across networks. |
| Enhanced Event Search for MAC Addresses | RUCKUS One now includes a dedicated MAC address option in Event Search. You can search using full or partial MAC addresses in common formats, regardless of letter case, making it easier to locate relevant events. |
| Identity Group Creation During Property Management Setup | RUCKUS One now allows administrators to create an Identity Group directly from the Venue enablement page during property management setup. This streamlines the onboarding workflow by eliminating a separate configuration step. |
| Device Count Column in the Identities Table | RUCKUS One now includes a sortable Device Count column in the Identities table. You can compare device ownership across identities and select a device count value to view the associated device list. |
| MLO Support for OWE Transition Networks | RUCKUS One now supports Multi-Link Operation (MLO) on networks configured with OWE Transition mode. Wi-Fi 7 clients can use multiple links while the network continues to support legacy clients. |
| Invitation-Based Access for MSP Administrators | RUCKUS One now requires Managed Service Provider (MSP) administrators to be explicitly invited before they can access an account. This change aligns MSP account access with end-customer accounts and helps prevent unintended visibility. |
| On-Demand Firmware Upgrades Through API | RUCKUS One now supports on-demand firmware upgrades through an API. This allows external systems to initiate firmware upgrades directly, enabling integration with existing scheduling, automation, and ticketing workflows. |
| Bulk Network Enable and Disable Operations | RUCKUS One now allows administrators to enable or disable multiple networks simultaneously. Configuration changes are applied in the background, allowing you to continue working in the portal while the updates propagate. |
