SmartZone controllers are better equipped to handle large WiFi deployments such as within campuses and when customers are vastly distributed; therefore,
Ruckus recommends that you migrate existing ZoneDirector deployments to SamrtZone controller deployments. You can migrate ZoneDirector AP configuration information to SmartZone controllers from the controller itself, using a migration tool.
The AP models should be supported by the controller.
NOTE
ZD versions 9.13 and 10 are supported.
