The following section provides information on the new features and enhancements in this release.

• Cloud Radio Resource Management (RRM): AI-driven Cloud Radio Resource Management (RRM) is a centralized algorithm that guarantees zero interfering links for the APs managed by RUCKUS One, minimizing co-channel interference to the lowest level possible. This is accomplished by continuously gathering RF data from all the access points, holistically analyzing the RF environment and usage patterns, and jointly making optimal choices for channel re-use, channel bandwidth, and AP transmit power selection to maximize the network throughput. This new technology relies on sophisticated techniques of machine learning, artificial intelligence, graph algorithms, and cloud scale computation to jointly optimize channel, channel width, and AP transmit power. This method optimizes across all combinations of channel, channel width, and AP transmit power to search for the optimal values across the network.
• AI Operations: RUCKUS One creates recommendations after constantly monitoring the software configuration and analyzing network data. Changes in the expected behavior of a network or its performance are commonly detected and corrected by making physical changes to the network environment or by making configuration changes to the networking software. RUCKUS One provides recommendations by monitoring dynamic factors influencing network performance and also seeks to tune static factors with an objective to improve performance metrics, key performance indicators (KPIs), and the user experience.
• Device agnostic capabilities: This release introduces the RUCKUS One full Device Agnostic capabilities. As of this release, RUCKUS One is device agnostic from purchase, to activation, and to managing in the Cloud. Any purchased Cloud subscription license (including previously purchased legacy RUCKUS Cloud SKUs) support full device agnostic capabilities allowing the subscriptions to be used to manage Access Points (APs) or switches regardless of the models. For example, customers who have purchased licenses for managing ICX 7150, will be able to use these licenses to manage ICX 8200 or to manage APs. At time of activations, customers will not be prompted any more to allocate quantities for switches and/or APs. The User Interface in RUCKUS One is now simpler and does not distinguish between the type and model of devices being managed from a licensing perspective. Furthermore, when MSPs add new MSP End Customers, the built-in trial mode provides for 50 devices regardless of the type and model. This new capability facilitates simpler doing business with RUCKUS and simpler network administration for RUCKU End Customers and RUCKUS Partners.
• Dynamic packet capture (PCAP): Packet Capture (PCAP) is a collection of packets generated for all failure events with respect to the specific client. This allows the clients admins to inspect network packets and troubleshoot the issues. All PCAP reports will be stored for three months before they are deleted.
• Delivery traffic indication message (DTIM): In wireless networks, the DTIM timer is used to wake Wi-Fi devices to let them know there is traffic destined for them. Managing this setting can have significant impact on the battery life of mobile devices and sensors. A default value of 1 is applied.
• RF and LLDP neighbors: RUCKUS One can now display the LLDP information for APs managed under RUCKUS One and can also display the RSSI of neighboring access points that are managed under RUCKUS One.
• Client connectivity diagnostics (CCD): With this firmware, users are now able to troubleshoot client connectivity issues in real time. On the wireless clients list, users may choose a venue and group of APs to monitor for during client connection, in an effort to directly correlate “connectivity issues” with the precise step in the Wi-Fi authentication process that is breaking down.
