Unifi Management Password

We already use Unifi switches and management so this was literally plug and play!

I recently purchased this as an alternative to Unifi and wow...I really like the options and ability to edit this switch. The only thing I did not like is the cloud management. I prefer local because I don't like putting my stuff at risk by going through the internet. We have enough vulnerabilities in our networks, why risk it even more. Besides the options for management is better for local than the cloud. If you can get this, go get it...great switch.

Easy integrated management with UniFi: If you're already running another UniFi device and have a pre-existing instance of the UniFi Controller, adopting this switch and making the necessary adjustments to its configuration are very intuitive and a breeze. Provisioning VLANs and assigning per-port configurations are far more complex in other vendor's UIs and solutions. At a glance, you can quickly discern connected MAC address, link speed, and whether or not PoE is in use. Configuration changes apply quickly with no disruption. Updating firmware revisions is also incredibly simple. No additional steps with other protocols/solutions are required as long as you have a running UniFi controller.

Setup was very easy and straightforward.  The UniFi management interface is very sleek and modern.  I would definitely recommend this Wireless Access Point!

The Ubiquiti Networks UniFi Lite 16-Port Gigabit PoE+ Switch is killer. Its impressive power and data management, coupled with PoE+ support, ensure seamless device connectivity. Effortless management makes it a must.

This slick little PoE switch is controlled by the UniFi management software (I'm using a CloudKey 2 controller), so I can visualize it on my network and run updates, etc. Note that there is not a PoE pass-through, even though the switch can be powered via PoE (or USB-C), it cannot provide power to any PoE device plugged into it.

This device provides local management for all my UniFi devices that I can access remotely. It took only 3 minutes to setup, but you should have a POE port available to power the device since it does not come with a plug.

If you already have Unifi gear, this switch is a great management addition and works with the Unifi Controller. While it does have the full management capabilities, a lot of it is burried in the controller which might not work for some power users. Works great for small business applications where you want to have a little more control than a dumb switch.

I have bought almost a dozen of these access points for home and business use. I love the set up and management through the Unifi controller. My clients love the lack of maintenance on there side for Wifi. No need to reboot them every other day like typical wireless access points.

Works great and the only thing I had to set up was the option to have a password to protect it if someone else tries to use it.
