UniFi Network Setup & Configuration Guide | 2023

Clark Linda Moore Karen Young Thomas

This video was far, far less useful than I thought. I wasted 38 minutes. What a shame.

What is the deal with using random private IP addresses like 10.68 and 10.69??! You know you could be normal and use 10.0 or 10.1 like practically everyone else?

Great vid. Also,you desperately need a mouse pad.

This is a great video. While I did not replicate the various VLAN setup settings, this did help to get my UDM Pro and Switch up and running using my Starlink Wifi WALN connection. Thank you.

Super ! Thanks for this clear video.
Small mistake Lease time of 86400 sec is one day and not 8 days as mentioned. I learned a lot!

Maybe im just stupid, you make a class A network, but set a class C subnet mask, or is it just me? :D

Thank you.

1.5 speed ok

thanks Cody! super helpfull!

Can anyone confirm this setup is okay for a small business - WITHOUT a proper firewall like a Netgate or Watchguard? Is the setup in the video safe enough? Thanks!

Good stuff, thanks.

Thanks for sharing this outstanding walkthrough!! Does the Enterprise 48 PoE support WAN failover or load balancing between two ethernet internet connections with different static IP's?

Do I need a Layer 3 switch to make these configurations work?

I have been having trouble with my network for a few weeks now. After watching this I see that I had my wifi and vlans setup incorrectly. Or at least not optimal. I have now created the same type of setup you showed here. Before I had only a IOT wifi, now I have an IOT vlan and a Wifi. This seems to have resolved a lot of my connectivity issues. Also, having that guest network setup is such a game changer. Being able to block family from connecting to things while still allowing them to browse the interwebs freely. It is really is the little things that make life so much more comfortable.
The only thing I haven't been able to figure out is how to manage my Unifi Identity network. I added the identity layer and it create a separate network. My wife's devices all use that wifi and mine all use the default networks.

Great video and presentation. Is there anything special you would do with running something like HomeAssistant? It’s communicating with all of the iot devices and the security cameras. However, you also want access to the HomeAssistant app from mobile devices like an iPad.

Seems way over kill for home use. Opinion ?

Much appreciated, setting up a home-based network, used for professional purposes too, work from home. Since it is small, I was thinking about keeping IOT and Security on the same network and SSID. Does this make sense?

Thanks for the video, I also do x.69.x.x on my networks for obvious reasons :P

why in the year of our lord 2024 are you disabling IPv6?

Easy to understand, enjoyed seeing you work off a Mac, too.

Great video. Really appreciated the thought put into creating your vlans.

Awesome video, but you did skip the the Internal Honeypot! lol

Does UDM Pro gateway doesn't need seperate controller? Is it built-in already? Thanks. 🤙

Hi . I have Only 3 unifi AP u6 pro. I wanna install them for a costumer. I dont know how I can mesh them. I cant see make a new network on my unifi cotroller app. also I am wondering to know how can I send the created network to costumer.The only thing is activated on my unifi controller is mak a new WIFI. I will be appreciate if you let me know how pass this process. I have only one modem one tp link POE switch and three Unifi AP. Thank you in advance.

Good evening Sir, thanks for your time educating us. Pls, kindly help...
I have a unified AP Pro that want to use and extend internet service from groundfloor to 4th floor.
pls how do i go about it... I have already run cat6 to 4th floor. Thank you.

Great video.

Extreme shout out. Love it.

Awsome video with great information. I set up my VLAN for my camera network but I can't figure out how to port forward in out of a VLAN so my phone app can access my cameras. Do you have a video on this?

Very detailed information! Thank you so much! I do wonder of how I can secure Access Points from being hyjacked? Thank you!

Is there a way to block or kick off multiple clients (personal iphones, watches, etc) by selecting multiple instead of 1 at a time?

Nice touch with the 69 supernet 😂

Could you do a more in depth video on Vlans. I tried setting them up but whenever a port is put on one the device attached just disappears.

why 10.69.x.x? just easier to type?

Wait, so it auto writes the firewalls depending on selections made from initial network setups and from the Threat Management selections you make?

Great Video. You make it easy to follow, and I can understand you clearly!

Thank you. 👍🏻👍🏻

If I want the cable going to my access point to not be a entry point into my network (example: unplug the AP and plug in a laptop), whats the best way to accomplish that?

Hi, do we need to turn on IGMP snooping for IOT vLan ? Thanks!

TIL: pros don’t use mousepads

So you left the nights watch z?

Bro looks like an older me

Too basic, going to go into more detail at all?

Thanks for the video. I would love to see a less professional/enterprise tutorial that is catered towards your average tech enthusiast trying to set up a home network with a secure network to also self-host apps.

thanks man, you really hit it, and very informative
am falling in love with unifi day after day

very good video , what is the best practice when you have the pro and 3 or more switches connect them all to the pro or connect the switchers between going from switch to switch ? also is better to have all the poe in one switch or spread them in those 3 or 4 poe .(around 16 poe devices )
