AP image signing involves digitally signing the Ruckus header and body of the AP firmware, and authenticating the firmware as valid to be installed on the AP. AP firmware images are available in the following types:

  • USI: Un-Signed Images which do not have the capability to sign and verify. It only contains a Header and Body. The Body usually contains both the kernel and file system information.
  • IUI: Intermediate Signed Image which has the capability to sign and verify, and it allows installation of both signed and unsigned images.
  • FSI: Fully Signed Image which only allow Ruckus-signed firmware to be installed on the AP. It does not allow installation of unsigned or tampered images.
AP image signing is a two step upgrade or downgrade procedure where in the AP firmware can be upgraded from type USI to ISI, ISI to FSI and vice-versa in the same order.
NOTE
You cannot upgrade an image from USI to FSI as the formats of these images are different. Attempting such an upgrade triggers an AP image signing failed event.
