This works for for Meraki, I suspect that other gear is similar with just a tweak or two. Now, any UniFi device (which isn't adopted yet) will automatically show up in the controller as 'awaiting adoption', just by powering it on and connecting to the network. In meraki, for example, the method is to use a CUSTOM code, use #43, and HEX, and then add the following: '01:04:xx:xx:xx:xx' (without quotes) where the last 4 'xx's are the IP address of your UniFi controller in hexadecimal format. In such a case, you can use DHCP option 43 to inject the IP address of your UniFi controller. Instead, most deployments of UniFi involve other manufacturer's firewall/routers and UniFi switching/WiFi equipment. The USGs (USG, USG-Pro, USG-Pro-4, USG-XG, and UDM/UDM-Pro) are mostly unsuitable for enterprise networks, as they lack a number of features and are difficult to configure for failover and other complex network configurations.

In addition, there is another method that is more suitable to most deployments, since most IT professionals do not use the UniFi Security gateways. Thanks for your quick response or comments.Excellent rehash of what Ubiquiti reports on ui.com (formerly ). Please consider that at the end of year 2013 we´ll be using more than 400's APs devices. We are planning to includeĪnother 150/200 devices during next year and we prefer to use TP-Link AP products BUT Ubiquiti has this minor advantage (from network management perspective) that simplify the To help to find TP-Link AP devices in a different IP range like Ubiquiti Discovery software does?. UniFi APs have a default inform URL Thus, the purpose of using DHCP option 43 or DNS is to allow the AP to know the IP of the Controller. Utility software (like Ubiquiti Discovery - see at LAN port connected locally to access management features on the router (USG or third party). My question is quit simple: in order to simplify the network management considering differents subnets with differents IP range, is TP-Link considering to develope an We also use Ubiquiti product (including a different IP range): each Ubiquiti NanoStarion M5 has already installed an access point from TP-Link,

We are using several access points (different models from TP-Link product line), in our network (actually, we could say more than 200 devices) due we have too many, we need to use aĭifferent IP range in order to access each one.
