We use Ruckus wireless bridges and access points at my current job. Every once in a while (like once every few months), a wireless bridge radio will lose its connection to the other side. There are several rooftops that encroach on the bridge's line of sight (LOS) and even though the Ruckus radios are great at adjusting their transmission for the environment, sometimes the signal gets lost. Typically, a reboot of the root bridge solves the issue, but sometimes I have to reboot the non-root bridge as well.

These commands on Ruckus 7731 wireless bridge radios will reboot the radios to re-establish their association (connection) if it is lost. The values are in seconds and are the Ruckus-recommended settings. Waiting a generous 5 minutes (300 seconds) to allow for a reboot may be unnecessary, but you'd have to test lower values in your environment.

On the Root Bridge:

set uplink-recovery sta-link-down-init-time 60
set uplink-recovery sta-link-down-reboot-time 300
set uplink-recovery no-sta-link-reboot-time 300
set uplink-recovery ap-exp-assoc 1
set uplink-recovery sta-mia-reboot-time 300

On the Non-Root Bridge:

set uplink-recovery sta-link-down-init-time 60
set uplink-recovery sta-link-down-reboot-time 300
set uplink-recovery no-sta-link-reboot-time 300
