As defined in JSON commands, each request issued from an external web portal server must be in the JSON format.

RUCKUS One NBI address is an important attribute that is learned during the message exchange when the third-party captive portal receives HTTP request from the user device. All messages destined to the NBI must use this IP and port 443.

Note: This attribute is also referred to as northbound interface ip (nbiIP) or subscriber manager IP (SIP)

For North America:
