WAPs are in wireless mesh with two of them hard wired. I am planning to change local subnet, but worrying that I will loose access to WAPs.
What are the best practices here? All WAPs have statically defined IPs. Does it make sense to switch them to DHCP and once they get IPs from the new pool, change back to static?

My only issue is that APs are not using DHCP now, they all have static IPs. I don't think adding secondary address on ZD will instruct APs to use DHCP from the new pool.
When you did this, did you have your APs on DHCP?

What I would do rather is add the secondary ZD address, record the current AP statics (if necessary), then change all APs to DHCP, then change your ZD address, then after all the APs have gotten DHCP on the new scheme and synced to the ZD, change them back to statics.
Just my thoughts, maybe another Ruckus guru can give better direction.

How much time it took your APs to get new IP addresses? I am not sure if changing ZD IP will force APs to send DHCP requests...
