ASmartZone cluster backupis a comprehensive backup of the controller cluster’s system and configuration data, intended for disaster recovery or migration to similar SmartZone platforms. According to theRUCKUS One Online Help – Cluster Backup and RestoreandSmartZone Administration Guide (v5.2+), a cluster backup includes:

Cluster and controller configuration, including IP addressing, zones, AP groups, WLANs, and policies.

Client statistical data and historical analytics, which are also captured for restoration of system monitoring data.

When a cluster backup is initiated,the controller enters maintenance modeto ensure database consistency and prevent configuration changes during the process. This temporarily suspends management operations but preserves data integrity.

Cluster backupscannot be restored to different SmartZone models(e.g., vSZ to SZ-100) due to hardware and licensing differences. Backups alsorequire system services to be activeduring execution.

Therefore, the correct answers areB(contains IP addressing and client statistical information) andD(puts the controller into maintenance mode when executed).

RUCKUS Analyticsis a cloud-based network intelligence platform integrated withRUCKUS Onethat providesservice-level assurance (SLA)andend-user experience visibilityacross multiple sites and networks.

According to theRUCKUS Analytics 3.5 User Guide, it leverages AI-driven baselines and telemetry data from access points and switches to:

Detect anomalies

Measure Wi-Fi performance against SLAs

Generate detailed client experience reports

SmartZone Essentialshandles local management,ZoneDirectoris legacy controller software, andSmartMeshis a wireless backhaul technology—not a management analytics system.

InSmartZone High-Scale (vSZ-H)environments, theDomain Hierarchydefines the organizational and administrative structure for managing distributed networks and multi-tenant operations.

According toRUCKUS One Online Help – SmartZone Domain and Role ManagementandSmartZone High-Scale Administration Guide, the following apply:

(A)EachDomain defines an administrative boundarythat determines which network components (zones, WLANs, APs) specific administrators can access or modify.

(D)ADomain can contain sub-domains and AP Zones, allowing hierarchical management layers for large service provider or enterprise environments.

(F)Partner Domains(exclusive to vSZ-H) allow configuration inheritance from theSystem Domain, while providing the flexibility to customize local settings and policies for tenants or customers.

OptionsB,C, andEare incorrect because all domain types (not only Partner Domains) can contain AP Zones, and SmartZone supports multi-level hierarchies beyond just System and Zone levels.
