Enterprise-grade features
RUCKUS Unleashed APs and switches come loaded with enterprise-grade features to customize, optimize and secure your Wi-Fi networks
and deliver great user experiences. Key features are highlighted below. A detailed list of features is available at the end of the data sheet.

FEATURE BENEFIT

Guest Services Give guests secure, high-performance Wi-Fi access, while isolating their traffic from the private business network easily.
Customize your guest Wi-Fi portal with your logo, brand and messages. Provide Wi-Fi access through Guest Passes, or have
guests authenticate using social media accounts such as Facebook to eliminate the hassle (and security holes) of sharing
Wi-Fi passwords.
Application Visibility Monitor the network usage patterns of over 2,200 applications with Deep Packet Inspection, and find out which ones are
and Control consuming the most resources. You can define application-specific access rules (such as limiting access to YouTube or social
media), or even limit Wi-Fi speeds for specific applications and/or SSIDs.
Resiliency Continue to access printers and other network devices even if internet connectivity fails. Users stay connected to the Wi-Fi
network even if one or several APs fail for any reason, as long as at least one AP in the network is online.
Security Use DPSK to eliminate the risks of shared passwords and lock down access to the Wi-Fi network—without complex
configurations. In addition, secure your network and protect your clients with WPA encryption, client isolation and 802.1x
for RADIUS and Active Directory.
Zero Touch Mesh Add new Unleashed APs to the existing network securely over the air. Dramatically speed up and simplify the installation of
an Unleashed network.
Multiple Language Create and manage your Wi-Fi network in your own language. RUCKUS Unleashed currently supports 13 languages.
Support
URL Filtering Define web access rules for your network users. Protect your network from malware and phishing sites.
Social Login With the built-in Social Login feature, you can sign into the Unleashed mobile app using your Gmail, Facebook or Twitter
account, and link your Unleashed Wi-Fi network. From that point on, you can manage your Unleashed
network from anywhere in the world using your social login.
Remote Management Need a quick answer or help troubleshooting a network issue? Just tap the “Invite for Remote Management” option
on the mobile app, and send a text message or email with a link containing all the Unleashed network information
to an expert.
AP Groups Apply multiple configuration profiles to different groups of APs.
Zero IT Easily onboard customers or employees onto your Wi-Fi network through a simple, self-service portal.
SSID Rate-Limiting If you want to limit data speeds for a particular group of users (such as guest users), you can create a separate SSID with a
data rate “speed limit” that you define.
