Ruckus and Cisco VLan's?

[bjohnny42]

I'm looking at installing a Ruckus Wireless solution onto an Cisco network infrastructure, can it link in with an existing Cisco VLan architecture? Or do we have to configure something funky for it?

 

We currently have VLans for

 

Server

Printers

Admin

Curriculum

 

So thinking of adding

Guest Wireless

Student Wireless

Staff Wireless

 

Would we be doing something with the Cisco End or Ruckus? Or a bit of both? Anyone out there with this experience?

 

Cheers

as long as your VLANs are properly numbered and routed, you can set up the ruckus VLANs to use the same numbers (EG number 10 for Curriculum/Students, 20 for Staff/Admin) etc

 

Does it make sense?

Allow me to expand on this

 

Our servers are broken down as follows

 

AdminServer - VLAN Route 10

CurriculumServer - VLAN Route 20

GuestServer (This just routes through a highly filtered proxy) - VLAN Route 30

Printers - VLAN Route 40

 

Ruckus is broken down as follows

 

Staff - Ruckus VLAN Route 10

Student - Ruckus VLAN Route 20

Guest - Ruckus VLAN Route 30

 

From here students connect to student wireless and only have access to the student system. It routes perfectly fine provided it all matches up

Yes that does make sense, so do you have cisco kit too as well as Ruckus?
