Configuring Notification Settings

To ensure that you and other administrators in your organization stay updated on what is going on in your network (including issues that need immediate attention), configure the notification settings on RUCKUS One.

RUCKUS One supports two types of notification methods:
  • Email: Send system notifications to multiple email addresses.
    Note: AI notifications are sent by email only.
  • SMS: Send text or short message service (SMS) messages to mobile numbers.

Notifications are sent for these main issues:

  • AP disconnection (Alarm issued)—After a period of 15 minutes has elapsed since an access point (AP) is disconnected from RUCKUS One, a notification is sent to the administrator. The information in the notification includes the time at which the AP was disconnected, name of the venue, AP name, MAC address, and serial number.
