Hamina Network Planner includes integration with Ruckus One, which can be used for Import and Live monitoring purposes.
The Import function will bring the map, and access points (including model, name, MAC, serial, channel, and channel width settings) into Hamina Network Planner. Then, you can add walls, attenuating objects, and scope zones to simulate the current Ruckus network configuration in a predictive model.
The Live feature will continuously pull in the latest status of the network including switches, access points and radio information.
The Ruckus One API does not currently include a scale for the project or the transmit power for each access point radio. Setting the scale is required to view heatmaps, and we recommend setting the transmit power and drawing walls and attenuating objects for accurate heatmap prediction in Hamina Network Planner.
Log into ruckus.cloud.
From the side panel select Administration > Settings.
In the lower right corner of the Settings page, click the Add Token link.
This is a good time to retreive your Ruckus Tenant ID. The easiest place to retrieve it is from the address bar, , e.g. https://eu.ruckus.cloud/${my_tenant_id}.
Fill in an Application Name, Client secret and Scope.
Save the Client ID and Secret, along with the Ruckus Tenant ID you copied in the previous step.
Click the Add button.
In Hamina Network Planner, navigate to the Import page.
Select Ruckus, and input correct Region, Tenant ID, Client ID and Client Secret, and then click the Continue button.
Select the venue and floor plans you want to import, and then click the Import button.
The background map, access points, and access point details will now appear in Hamina Network Planner, but since there is no scale, a heatmap will not be displayed. Use the Scale tool to add a scale to your project, which will enable heatmaps.
To increase accuracy, copy over the transmit power for the 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz radios.
By default, Hamina Network Planner will use your selected Environment Type to predict loss in your project. To further increase accuracy, we recommend drawing walls and attenuating objects, which will automatically switch the simulation to Walls + Objects.
The Live View is currently offered as a Feature Preview, and requires a Hamina Network Planner Plus license. Find the option to enable Live Analysis in the Account menu > Preferences > Feature preview tab.
Click the Live icon from the middle top tab selection to access Live view, and click the Connect Infrastructure button.

By default, Hamina Network Planner will use your selected Environment Type to predict loss in your project. To further increase accuracy, we recommend drawing walls and attenuating objects, which will automatically switch the simulation to Walls + Objects. To draw walls, attenuating objects, and other relevant map objects such as scope and capacity zones, switch to the Simulation view. When finished, switch back to the Live view.
To refresh the Live View, click the Refresh button in the upper right.
If you modify the devices in simulation, they won't be reflected in the Live View.
The Live View shows the current status of the network.
