Viewing Events
An event in RUCKUS One represents any significant activity occurring on managed access points (APs), switches, associated clients, or within the system. Events help tenants identify issues requiring immediate action, as well as informational conditions that may assist with monitoring or troubleshooting. The Events page allows you to view, sort, filter, and download details of all events generated within your RUCKUS One account during the selected time window.

- Client BTM Request Sent: This event is logged when an AP attempts to steer a client to a neighboring AP for load balancing or sticky client steering.
- Client BTM Response Received: This event is logged when the AP receives a BSS Transition Management (BTM) response from a client that it previously attempted to steer to a neighboring AP for load balancing or sticky client steering.
- Client
Disassoc by CLB: This event is logged when
the AP disassociates a client due to a load‑balancing or
sticky client‑steering operation. This event occurs when a
disassociation request is sent to a non‑11v‑capable client
to move the client to a better AP.
