Simple Installation, Reduced Support Costs

Self-installable, the Ruckus MediaFlex 2200 Series utilizes dynamic host

configuration protocol (DHCP) for automatic configuration with the metro Wi-Fi network. The Ruckus MediaFlex 2200 Series has a simple and intuitive user interface and provides a setup wizard to guide the home users to configure the device.

The Ruckus MediaFlex 2200 Series is equipped to be remotely manageable by the metro Wi-Fi service provider’s network management center via HTTP, HTTPS, Telnet and SSH. The Ruckus MediaFlex 2200 Series provides extensive statistics to the service provider’s network management center for ease of troubleshooting and monitoring. Multiple clients are supported behind the Ruckus MediaFlex 2200 Series in the metro Wi-Fi network. Integrated NUTTCP support allows providers to conduct performance testing directly from the metro node to the MediaFlex 2200 Series.

The Ruckus MediaFlex 2200 Series is equipped with DHCP server functionality. The MediaFlex 2200 Series supports multiple home PCs by automatically assigning dynamic IP addresses. Network address translation (NAT) is used to give home PCs Internet access. In the event of a broadband connection failure, the MediaFlex 2200 Series automatically alerts the user by redirecting them to an status page while continuing to provide local network connectivity.

Metro Hotspot Deployment

The Ruckus MediaFlex 2200 Series allows metro ISPs to easily extend wireless coverage while maintaining user identity. This is essential for providers that must authenticate users based on a unique MAC address. Through the use of L2TP tunnelling, traffic from the Ruckus MediaFlex 2200 Series is transparently bridged to a centralized data center or NOC, allowing the authentication and billing of individual users (see L2TP Application Note for more details).
