Ruckus
This platform allows you to connect to Ruckus
Ruckus Unleashed
There is currently support for the following device types within Home Assistant:
-
Presence detection - The platform will look at devices connected to the access point and will
create a
device_tracker
for each discovered device.
Prerequisites
- IP address / hostname, Username and Password which you use to connect to your Ruckus controller’s web dashboard.
Ruckus Unleashed
You may enter the IP address / hostname of any access point as the Host. If you’ve configured an Unleashed Management Interface, then use this instead.
Ruckus One
You’ll need to use your Ruckus One dashboard to create an Application Token. Go to the bottom of the
Administration > Settings screen and select the Add Token link. Choose any
Application Name, for example Home Assistant
. The Token Scope can be Read Only.
When Home Assistant prompts for Ruckus connection details, use the full URL of a Ruckus One
dashboard page as the Host (such as https://asia.ruckus.cloud/5dd1000334cc2a01fcf28a740a6c95cf/t/dashboard
),
your Token Client ID as the Username & your Token Shared Secret as the Password.
Configuration
To add the Ruckus hub to your Home Assistant instance, use this My button:
Manual configuration steps
If the above My button doesn’t work, you can also perform the following steps manually:
-
Browse to your Home Assistant instance.
-
In the bottom right corner, select the
Add Integration button. -
From the list, select Ruckus.
-
Follow the instructions on screen to complete the setup.
Limitations
This integration is not currently suitable for large multi-venue SmartZone or Ruckus One networks: there is no way to filter devices by Venue or Zone.
If you’ve configured your access points with an extended Client Inactivity Timeout, then this is how long
you’ll need to wait for devices to be detected as not_home
.
Troubleshooting
For this platform to work, the Ruckus controller or Unleashed AP will need to be accessible over HTTPS. If you are having trouble with Home Assistant not connecting, make sure the user you have specified can log in to the web dashboard and view AP, WLAN, and Client information.
