Yes, would be interested in seeing you migrate your home network over to the udm pro. Thanks, great video 👍
Yes please!!
I would like to see you migrate from the USG Pro to the UDM Pro.
I'd also like to see how to do a migration from USG or USG Pro to UDM Pro
Same here
As would I...
Loved the review! Been looking forward to the UDM-PRO for a while, a datasheet can only tell you so much. Would love to see another video with a deeper dive into the threat management features.
Literally liked the video for the way you “remove” the boxes from the table. Great work as always, long time watcher.
All these features within one unit looks fantastic. I used to do telecommunications contracting where we did networking, wireless, access control and surveillance. This would be a great all in one unit for advanced home users and small businesses. Cant wait to see how people use this unit.
Also, I have gigabit (really 850 down/950 up) and full IPS/IDS doesn’t affect it at all.
Can you test with smart queues enabled also? What speeds do you get with that?
Brendan Rosa Smart Queues is known to wreck your internet speed once you’re over 200, and isn’t even useful unless you are able to constantly saturate your connection, which I’m unable to do.
@Avi Drissman - very nice... I have gigabit as well but COAX dual gig links. I was wondering if someone tested upload at gig speed. My coax gives me 920mb down/ 42 mb up at the moment but have gotten as high as 990/50 . Full IPS/IDS , smart tags and geo filters on.
@Scott M How were your speeds? This is a make or break from me ordering. Thank you!!!
@Scott M Thank you for the response! My main interest is my Edge Router Lite’s baby CPU can’t handle QoS without reducing my network significantly (100/100) and I do use the full speeds frequently. I am not aware of a way around this though I imagine with some time I could make it work.
Speaking of latency, my primary need is for gaming. Does the Geo Filter allow you to lock into a region? Would I be able to limit a LAN IP from seeing outside a selectable region in an effort to minimize latency? Do you think this device would meet my needs? Controls me up and down speeds to max my bandwidth while prioritizing an IP or IPs traffic specifically related to gaming? Thank you again Scott!! I truly appreciate the help!!
I have a UDM-PRO at home with a 1Gig Fiber connection with all options for threat protection turned on, I'm still getting 900+ down and 900+up.
Ive got mine coming in tomorrow, ive been looking for a nice review, glad it happens to come from one of my favorite technology reviewers.
I have setup mine tonight. I am loving the ability to manage my home network just like i do at work. Great piece of hardware with a friendly UI and an option for advanced settings for the Pros. Simply AWESOME!
Would like to see threat management video. Thanks for the great video!!
Crosstalk Solutions, you guys are the reason I have gone full on Ubiquiti at home, and I've waited for this review with glee!
Peter same here. If it wouldn’t have been for Chris teaching me about it in this videos, I’d still be pulling my hair out with netgear.
Jeremy Myers SAME. I hated dealing with those Netgear routers. Never lasted more than a few months each 🙄
Ditto but at work for me.
Same...RIP wallet
I am so glad I found your channel. Really in-depth review. Love the summary at the end.
I've been following you for a couple of years now... Setting up USG's, Cloudkeys, and Access points at all of my hotels and at the homes of the different owners - Ubiquiti is the only equipment that has given my boss's a happy experience in their homes and businesses. I set up my first UDM today, about an hour ago - I love this stuff; it's been easier than the Cisco equipment that I cut my teeth on with absolutely zero issues. Just a little bit of a curve when it came to figure out how to VPN, but now it's a cinch, thanks to your videos! I recommend your channel on Quora all the time!
Hi Chris, love your videos. You are such a good teacher! You got me hooked on Ubiquity products. ;-)
And YES!! A video on Thread Management would be fantastic!
Hello. I ordered the setup with the 8tb hard drive. It comes in a separate box and its a WD Purple Surveillance drive.
Not to rain on your decision, but I'm confused as to why folks wouldn't buy the HDD separately. Probably costs less and you get a better HDD anyway.
@@JudahRichardson1
UI sells the HD for 190$ and the same cost 220$ on amazon.
But if you had watched the video you would have seen why 😉
@@JudahRichardson1 Maybe watch the damn video where he explains how it is cheaper to have it included with your UDMPro.
i just ordered this device. passed on the hdd upgrade since its cheaper to get one form bestbuy. cant wait to get my hands on this.
@DeeKay86 The problem with the video is that he only compares to Amazon pricing. Amazon is almost always more expensive than just about anywhere else when it comes to tech. Would be more interested to see him start using Microcenter in the future. As soon as I saw him looking on Amazon in the video I was cringing and hoping he cross-checked that price with another website.
Just ordered mine for the house to replace my regular USG. Will be using this for many clients going forward!
How have I not seen your videos! I love the way you teach as you go and do it yourself while narrating with no nonsense and audio is good. I'm in love! Thanks for what you do. I'm certain you truly help the masses!
Excellent video, right to the end. Thanks for your hard work, this is exactly the information I was looking for. Cheers!
it would be nice to have 8port PoE version this would be fantastic for house installs of a few camera & APs
Poe would be nice indeed. The thing is this is not made for home use per se. It would need to be a L3 switch though to be able to route vlan traffuc which might make it more expensive to the point it would not be competitive.
As small poe budget woule be nice though. 20-40W would be enough.
But how would they sell a POE switch for 100 dollars?
but one with POE is exactly what i want, which one do i have to buy with the POE in it?? i want it for 6 cameras at home.
Totally agree, leaving our PoE is a massive oversight, it could have potentially been a power consolidated appliance but now you have to start hanging L3 switches off it to power a few cameras - they really missed an opportunity.
It seems like most users setting up a Dream Machine Pro would NEED POE ports. I just bought the DM Pro, and 2 UniFi 6 Long Range APs. I also had to buy a POE injector on Amazon (linked below). I would have paid extra for a Pro "Elite" if available. Note: I have not set-up my system yet, this is why I was watching the video :)

Great video👍👍 couldn’t ask for a more complete review, honestly!
Yes on threat management video and moving from your edgerouter setup to the dream machine.
Yes, a migration video would be perfect. 👍
I would have been really quick to pick this up if they had included POE with the ports. For a small home setup, 8 POE ports would have been perfect for a few AP's and cameras.
For a home setup the UDM would be perfect with PoE switches... if the UDM-SE comes out I'll be all over it!
BROis what is this “-SE” you speak of
@@kodeypatterson8973 it's a rumored, but unannounced UDM that's black and has a screen and PoE ports. There was a leak of it, but nothing ever materialized. Here's some info if you're curious, but don't expect anything any time soon (or ever): github.com/DavidSpek/UDM-SE/blob/master/UDM-SE%20Quick%20Start%20Guide.pdf
BROis I can’t wait for the ‘Eddie Bauer’ special edition in forest green chassis.
I was going to order one today, but without POE ports I've changed my mind.
I follow you from Iraq. I love the way you explain things. You made it so easy for me, The way you explain is like a teacher explain to students.
I searched the unifi dream machine online. This is the best video I saw. THANK YOU
Great intro to the UDM-Pro, thank you. Definitely interested in the migration from Edge router to UDM-Pro
This is a bit overpowering for a 74 year old former COBOL programmer, but it is totally fascinating! How have I missed your channel for so long?
If youre a 76 year old COBAL programmer, NOTHIGN is overpowering for you!
Total respect there!
i used to troubleshoot COBAL rn machines in macine language! :)
You woudl love this.
I agree. A second UDM Pro that has 2 HDD and I would add POE. And true dual (or more) WAN capabilities. None the less good work Chris/UBNT.
There is a 1U Unit with multiple hard drives for protect but its beta.
@@emeraldbonsai it doesn't have dual wan. You can use either wan1 the rj45 or the sfp not both at the same time
Totally agree with you. I wouldn't mind paying extra for the 2nd HDD and POE function.
It has dual wan in failover.
TechOut your mistaken it does have dual wan. I have dual wan enabled on my unit auto switch over . The only thing it doesn’t have is load balancing so in other words you couldn’t assign percentages of usage to a certain wan. The fall over takes less than 5 missed pings and switches over from my testing and just like he states in the video switching back over to primary is automatic and faster than the failover process. Other than the whole memory leak issue I have I love it ! Much better solution than my old USG-Pro.
Definitely love the throughput the device offers with all protection options switched on. Having said that I don’t wan’t security gateway, cloud key, protect and others in the same box - as you said right, the risk is just too high in case of a hardware failure.
Thanks for the video! My UDM Pro comes in tomorrow and I will be switching from an EdgeRouter Lite + CloudKey Gen2+ to 100% UDM. We'll see how it goes!
Would definitely appreciate the migration video to the UDM-Pro
I've been looking forward to this review as I've been planning on putting a UniFi network with WiFi and security cameras into my house. On learning about the UDM Pro I thought this would be a much better solution than a Cloud Key/USG. From your review I see I was right. Now I just have the wait to be able to get one here in NZ...
A few observations:
1. 8 port hub? Why did they even bother as the UDM Pro is obviously going to be used with other switches. I suppose that does mean you can connect directly to 9 switches...
2. I agree with you about the need for a second drive. (It did get me wondering if a SATA to eSATA adapter exists that you could then use to connect an eSATA raid box...)
3. Your comment about 2FA not kicking in when there is no internet access. If a bad actor has physical access to your UDM Pro you've got bigger problems than the lack of 2FA
4. I love how your plant appears to be quivering in anticipation at the beginning of the video
I totally agree with your comment on the 8 port switch, I find it weird and a bit awkward as well. I would have guessed a setup closer to the USG-PRO. If this really has upto 8gbps through put max then you'll be wanting to use the SFP+ ports over the ethernet anyway.
It looks awesome to me. I was excited to see it in the early access store. I plan on getting one for the small business I work for over just a USG.
Yes, please make another video about migration to UDM Pro! Awesome work!
Yeah a migration video from cloud key to this would be awesome.
Love it except the fact there is no config json. I was really looking forward to more throughput that my USG. Not being able to set up ExpressVPN network is a show stopper. When will they build this into UniFi anyway?
Thanks for publishing this video, like others I was waiting for you to get this out :)
Nice appliance, good to see a indepth review like this hitting all the important aspects of the udm-pro. I would however like to see that horsepower in the box without the builtin controller and other apps, i like my standalone unifi controller, but overall see their use case for this device as well.
I would definitely be interested in seeing that Video about how you migrate.
I'd love to hear your thoughts on migrating from a Unifi based network with a controller to the UDM-Pro
Really enjoyed your video. My first introduction to Unifi. You took a lot of the mystery out of the the UDM Pro.
So far so good on my UDM-PRO usage for my home office. I'm starting to implement the UniFi Protect video and trying to get a base-line for how many cameras it can comfortably handle with IDS/IPS/DPI enabled, running the UniFi controller and general performance on a 300Mbps AT&T Fiber connection. I've got quite a few clients that could really use the feature set with controller and camera systems so I was super excited to see this product released. In addition to the nice lineup of features the 10Gbps WAN was a specific selling point for a couple of my library clients who are getting 10Gbps fiber connections from a state-funded program. We were about to purchase a non-UniFi Edge Router IniFinity ER-8-XG that had the 10Gbps SFP+ ports to be able to handle it but now we can use the UDM-Pro and benefit from the other additional features as well. Great timing for what I'm hoping to be a great piece of equipment.
The UDM-P is awesome but I can’t adopt it until there is either a way to disable NAT, or enough routing/NAT features that I don’t require something else to manage my multiple IPs.
I would really like to see the migration video from USG & Cloud Key to UDM-UDM Pro.
I've just done that very task ( UCK-G2Plus and USG-Pro-4 ) on a live client site
was actually quite straightforward
Awesome - I watched the whole way through and valued every minute - super useful and I'm going to order mine right now!! Huge thanks!
Yes I would love a video on your UDM pro production experience
Please do a video on how to go from a USG3 -> UDM Pro.
@@jakymiwm Yup. I personally went from cloud key to UDM Pro while in early access with now issue. Just go thru and check you VLAN settings. Mine still worked it just renamed them which could maybe cause issues later if you didnt realize it. Also, double check your IP address reservations. I had a few things I thought I had static mapped that somehow got switched up later like my Blue Iris server on my LAN side and not on my Security VLAN side. All of my access point settings transferred over no issue.
Sounds like a good video!
Same question.
It’s a start from scratch from USG to UDM. I just went through it today. The porting to UDM is not supported.
@@jakymiwm and how do you do that? CK to CK gen2 was easy with sd card. Not sure about this.
3 downsides I would like to see
-no battery to safely power the unit down after the ups goes down. (Unless this will be a function of the unifi battery solution)
-no second hard drive.
- HDD trays do not lock from what I can see (please correct me if i an wrong)
This can be done in software so not a direct downside of the device.
Unifi would benefit from a hot swap feature. Connect two UDMpros one can be in a standby mode.
Have a UPS for my unRAID server, and also room to hook up the UDM Pro on it, so if you have a UPS then your first issue can be solved like that.
@@stiibunyozomita3536 I mean when the UPS fails. UPS will power my rack for about an hour. At about 45min it will tell the server to gracefully power down. My cloud key gen2+ powers itself down gracefully at loss of power. Unifi if your listening sell a small battery just enough for the pro to gracefully power down.
@@Mixiter55 ah misunderstood you there. Well then that's a bit of a strange decision Ubiquity made there. Beginning to doubt if would actually get this UDM Pro. Guess they want us to buy their USP-RPS.
Was actually looking myself for a replacement for my CK Gen 1 and thought about the CK Gen 2+ until I noticed the UDM Pro would be released. That the UDM Pro has no PoE ports doesn't matter for me, as I move my USW-8-150W and would actually work better for the camera's I going to purchase. Ah decisions, decisions :-)
Second hard drive for a RAID 1 setup would also be a nice addition, and again a strange decision to not allow the disk tray to be lockable.
Chris, Thank you for the great video. I'm planning on going full Ubiquiti for my home network (because I can, dammit!), and I can't wait to build it around the UDM Pro. I too wish that it came with the ability to have a second HDD, but many NVR systems from Swann, Reolink, Amcrest, etc. all run single HDDs (most likely for cost). Hopefully the 4-bay device we've heard about from UI will alleviate this issue. For the UDM Pro on an (overkill) home network has great packaging and will be great in a small 6,9, 12, or 15U rack. This, one of the G2 24-port switches, some APs and Cams are all I'm looking for and the Unifi system looks to be as close to perfect for power user / SMB needs as one can get.
Looking forward to setting mine up later this week!
Do you know when you will have it on your Amazon store? And the same with their Gen2 switches?
Cisco, Netgear and Linksys already disliked this video.
4 Dislikes, must be Arista visiting.
J M yes lol 👍
@@JM-mi2ew Lol don't compare Ubuqiti to Proper Cisco or Arista, what is Next, Juniper, Aruba, Fortigate, Palo Alto?
Where's all the ruckus arriving from?
@@wiziek inorite?
Just got mine in the mail today. Moved from the USG to the Dream Machine Pro. It was easy to backup my current controller and restore to the DR Pro and be up in minutes. I bought the DR Pro for home use and although its a little overkill, I am happy to have the faster hardware. My USG just didn't have the power I needed and noticed it would spike at 100% more than I liked. I rather have it all in one (cloud key, USG, and switch) for the price point. Plus I like the form factor over the regular DR. I already have 2 nano HD ACs in my house so I really didn't need anymore coverage that the regular DR (with access point) would have given. I am pretty happy with it so far.
Ever since I saw it on Ubiquiti's early access site I too wished for a second hard drive slot and RAID1 support. The fact that there's already space for it makes me want it even more!
4 seconds before saying “no graceful way to shut it down” there were restart options on your screen :P
Restarting is not the same thing as shutting down
Ubiquiti needs to make a feature to "Adopt as Spare/Backup" so that if the primary device goes down the management controller can activate the spare/backup automatically. It would just require the equipment be cabled properly.
Yeah I've never quite understood why there's no failover option. I'd love to have a backup controller running on my home server, for example
I am a HUGE fanboi of Ubiquity products... They are an awesome Networking disruption, overthrowing the big guys for the SOHO builds... The massive performance to price is outstanding... I had Cisco SOHO equipment so I could do a decent VLAN split and firewall. When I upgraded from 300/30 COX package to 1000/1000 FttH setup, that SoHo router could not keep up with the packets and i say only about 500/200 speeds due to the router limitation. I moved to a ER-Lite for a bit and that little box was awesome!!! When the new ER-4 came out, I upgraded to that, and still use it rack mounted. 48 Port Unifi switch and CloudKey Gen2+. 6-G4 cams, 3-150W POE switches in the structured wire closets through the house, 4-UAP PROs through the house. All fiber backbone that goes through all the SFP ports on each switch router. I have a small datacenter in my house and these products kick @$$. 3 subnets, 6 VLANs, about 200 internal IP's.
Thanks for the video! I ordered mine the morning it went GA and it will be here tomorrow.
Well, got my UDMP up... what a mess! It took over an hour of reboots and retrying before it would even acknowledge there was access to the internet (this was AFTER I had given up 30 minutes if trying to use PPPoE to my modem and just put it on the NAT side of my existing LAN just so I could get in and re-configure for PPPoE later). Now it's all setup and has taken the role my USG previously had, but Protect is an absolute mess. It completely ignores motion zones, alert schedules, and geofencing. Since migrating I'm being bombarded by notifications for every car that passes my house.
I can see a deployment I manage that would benifit from this
Sneaky amazon gift-card. Someone else got to it first but that was fun :D
Good evening to everyone I love your help for
Unifi Access seems pretty cool, would love to see more of it
I would agree about the "all eggs in one basket" concern as not having a hot spare in case of failure would be quite painful. The second drive option would be a great addition.
Seeing as just about everyone buying this would have ubnt APs, I would have hoped for POE. The whole point of the "dream machine" (imo) is that you *don't* need another device; that its an enterprise-grade all in one package. So if they wanted to keep costs down, put just one POE port on it. Have it be a single, relatively low wattage port enough for one AP. Then people can use that as the AIO package it is, and if they want to deploy more, then they can add on a switch beyond that. Would also have really liked to see that SFP port be clearly assignable to WAN or LAN, I don't need a 10G wan port, I'd far rather have 2 10G LAN ports, especially since their 10G switches are still quite expensive
qwerty22 One really would only need a single PoE adapter for a single Unifi AP. Then the rest are probably going to be connected via the mesh protocol and not have cable runs back to the UDM. Therefore I think Ubiquiti made the right cost saving decision by not including PoE.
Chris: People complain about no PoE
Also Chris: Let's test the UDM-Pro - I have a camera here oh... I have to find a PoE switch now..
Ubiquity: Aren't you glad we saved you those 50 bucks on the missing PoE? :D
To be fair, if you are running cameras, an 8 port probably isn't enough anyway.
PandaFather exactly, to me it’s perfect as it’s meant to be apart of your core infrastructure and not be the core. Having the single uplink 10gb SFP+ shows exactly it is meant to DAC link to a core 16,24, or 48 port switch with a UPS-RPS unit that is still in beta. Wish that UPS-RPS would go released as well.
Oh, I purchased a sedan, how come there is not tub for carrying goods? Or, I purchased a 5 seater, why are there not 7 seats?
FFS guys, this is a product offering deemed useful by Ubiquiti. If you think it's wrong, go manufacture something yourself, or STFU.
The same thing applies to the PoE APs. And if you're running a wifi-heavy network, the 8 ports *might* just be enough. That's a lot of injectors :D
Shout out to a fellow Oregonian. Great video as always. I've been looking forward to your review of the UDMP as I'm thinking of going this route soon.
Chris - Great video as always. Thanks for walking us through the product. Though I think this device is great, I agree with your comment on not putting all of my eggs in one basket. That's why I may shy away from deploying at client sites.
No Dual WAN with load balancing in my opinion its biggest flaw 💔.. POE can be added on a separate switch.. The second hard drive would be cool
It is really a pity. That is the most important thing for places where there is not fiber available.
This all depends if you really have real dual WAN coming in to the office or home, otherwise it makes no sense, most do not have this single fibre cable coming in. Is it possible to aggregate the WAN and LAN SFP+?
Can the USG controller and Protect software be configured on two different VLANs?
Been trying to figure this out myself
Have you tried Unifi Protect on a vlan with multiple cameras? I remember seeing something that too many cameras with protect running on a vlan caused some
Issues. This might be outdated info feel free to correct me. Would love to know for sure.
@@kodeypatterson8973 I run Unifi Protect on its own VLAN, with multiple cameras. No issues. The only downside is having to not use the Controller that's built into Gen2. If I do, then the camera VLAN has access to it. So I've turned off Controller software on CKG2 thats on Camera VLAN, and use a separate controller for managing rest of the network.
Alex N. Jose very nice 👍🏻. So you have your cameras+CloudKey on a vlan? Do you have any wireless cameras?
@@kodeypatterson8973 Yep. Cameras + CloudKey just for Video on its own VLAN. No wireless cameras.
Would love to see the video you referred to. Home setup. Cameras. IOT devices. A deeper understanding of threat management, restricting access / kids settings. I get the feeling there is more to come on this device as time goes on, but would love to see how to setup an advanced home network and then grow and unifi grows
Thanks, Chris. Great review as always.
Please migrate all your stuff to UDMP, I would like to see that process
Mark Joseph - is it even possible?
I would like to see this as well.
Ordering one of these for home now that I need beefier networking to work from home.
Product Idea: UDM-Pro+ = UDM Pro with 2nd HDD bay + 4port POE+ for $499
This would be ideal.
Yes, would be interested in seeing you migrate your home network over to the udm pro. Love your videos
Excellent vid, very thorough and love your content.
I’m getting 920 mb down and 49mb up with IPS , dpi, and smart tags .
Kieran Williams any issues with VOIP? I had to turn on smart QOS but it impacted the speed.
Mike Ebrahimi no I have not experienced any.
Have you noticed any improvement with smart queues even on a super fast connection? I feel like my USG struggles to route my fiber connection’s symmetrical gigabit speed.
Brendan Rosa no I haven’t... but I keep getting lockup’s to the web browser and app interface. Memory usage will be at 96% but cpu only 30%. Rebooting is a bandaid but it’s occurring every 1 1/2 now and is becoming very annoying. Also the fit of the power cord is poor using the included cord. Looking through my stash for an oversized one.
"UDM-Pro +" (extra HDD tray, PoE) Would be great.
UDM-XG to refer other top of the line product in ubiquity devices. ;-)
Love the way you throw away unwanted stuff...😊😊😊
Of course this comes out a couple weeks after I finally get my separate CK Gen2, USG, switch, etc up and running... Seeing the migration in your setup would be great!!
Looking forward to this video, Ive thinking on buying one to implement unifi protect
questions i hope your video solve
1 how many cameras does it support
2 this is a replacement for UAS-XG
3 do i still need a Cloud key
Keep it up Great videos
About 25, no, no
I love this device. It's absolutely perfect for the home network enthusiast. Fast enough to handle 1000/1000 with all the bells and whistles on. Also allows you to fit more into a much smaller cheaper rack for the home.
I plan on going with a UDM-Pro, UAP-IW-HD behind the TV in the middle of the house to hardwire TV/consoles and provide wifi, and a 16 port POE switch to run cameras around the house.
Ultimate home network for around $1000 total
Keith A it’s not ultimate
Kristopher Leslie It might be for his needs. You don’t know
@@kristopherleslie8343 the $1000 is a qualifier.
@@VulgrDisplay I love Ubnt, but the more I see issues, the more "ultimate" and "UBNT" don't need to be included together in the same sentence, that's all. Their technical support is the pits of hell for the uninitiated.
@@kristopherleslie8343 this is not for the home user. It's for network engineers and network enthusiasts.
Mine will be arriving soon and I'm looking forward to it!
I'm really interested in this UDM-Pro. Thanks for posting this video.
In order to earn the "Pro" moniker, this thing needs the following missing features:
1. Dual HDD for RAID 1
2. Hot failover to another identical device in the same rack (in case the whole thing dies)
3. PoE on at least 4 ports, if not all 8
4. MUCH more powerful network config abilities - too much walled-garden locked-down BS happening here - SSO required to log in to my local device WTF?
5. WAN load balancing, either within the same device or using the second mirror device
With the above features, I would certainly pay up to $1500 for a matched pair, although I think they could realistically hit a $1000-$1200 price point for that kind of setup ($500-$600/ea).
I understand that dual HDDs could cannibalize market share from the upcoming 4-bay NAS box, but honestly I don't think that's a big enough concern to nerf this thing so hard.
rjk I think the video makes a good point that if you need PoE you will get a Unifi PoE switch. But what the video should have mentioned is that most Unifi Video users *already own* a Unifi PoE switch that they can migrate to the UDM Pro.
Plus 8 ports doesn’t likely even get you 8 cameras because you will probably have a few ports taken by other devices. So then you are in the territory of buying a, say, Unifi 16 port PoE switch. Unifi made the right decision here.
@@blackrockcity That's why I said 4 ports. You could then connect 4x PoE cameras, and use your old non-PoE gigiabit switch for the non-PoE equipment instead of buying an expensive new switch or using a mess of injectors. I'm thinking of the small business or even home user that does not want to buy a whole lot of new stuff.
rjk you are buying a block of PoE ports no matter what...whether they are built into the UDM or external in a Unifi PoE Switch. You may as well make the customer best apply their money to the number of PoE ports they need. A lot of SMB will need 16 or 24, etc. Some SMB may want to start with 16 ports and buy another 16 ports down the road (if only this UDM device can handle that many cameras). Because everyone has different needs, it’s best to make PoE ports external and modular.(The UDM is already too much of a single point of failure until they add soft failover.)
you missed the restart button in the advanced page of the settings
I actually went back and talked about the reset button, but ended up cutting that footage - the video was already over an hour long!
Just ordered one didn't realize how new the release is. I actually bought the cloudkey gen 2 and USG 20 days ago, but after reviewing specs of this UDM pro those are going back. Good thing I'm still in the return window. It seems like this is a huge step up in horsepower, I just hope its not buggy since its a new release.
Great video, and your RJ45 guitar shirt made it even better.
A full hour of network porn! I’m clearing my schedule
That's what I was confused about. It's not poe, but it's designed to use their poe cameras...Lol
Got mine last week
Awesome video. Threat management video would be great ! 😊
15:45 how to restart the device - click on restart :) Memory usage on front panel showed 83% which seems way high for a box doing nothing. Site to Site VPN but no remote user VPN - bad for SMB space. On total fail, how long to load config into new box? Probably agree there is already too much in a box for safe SMB use, and home use is ruled out by form factor.
Does anyone notice that the screen isn't level with the frame of the device? It's tilted to the left. UMMMM....quality control?
Other people said that too - but I think perhaps that was the angle of the camera. The screen on the device itself is level with the frame.
awesome video, all of my questions that i had were answered, keep it up
We just installed a Dream Machine at our business, I'm looking forward to getting to know more about the interface and all the features. Great Video, thanks.
WiFi 6 APs, when?
They're in the Early Access store, but sold out... alll...theee...timeee
It's been confirmed the HDD that comes packaged with the UDMP is a WD Purple 8TB
Source?
@@ReubenHanson2809 my source was from reddit in r/Ubiquiti I believe. I can't find it at the moment but the guy took a photo of it when he unboxed it.
Loved the video, the Dream Machine Pro checks all of my boxes for a "power home user" use case where I want the full throttle IPS on 500Mb+ WAN. Even in that category, I would still pay more to get redundant HDD and POE. Also, would love a UniFi DOCSIS 3.x modem option in lieu of the SFP's which I'll never use.
Agreed, would like to see a video on the migration over to the UDM-Pro as well as the various DPI / Threat Management Features down the road... I also agree that while this is so cool unless they have a way to have two of these in a redundant pair putting all of those features in a single unit is a little unnerving for sure.
The multi IP on the external interface is a killer for me. Why do they limit it? And if the UDMs aren't running EdgeOS, what are they running now? Confidence is low...
pharaoh411 unifios and also it is coming in the future
@@vono360 You mean "multi IP on the external interface" is coming in the future? Hasn't that been the rumor for years... and yet here we are.
It's a neat box for a small office or security conscious tech geek, but its downfall for my clients is the lack of multiple WAN IPs feature.
This missing feature eliminates this box from consideration for many of my clients since many have web services that require more than 1 IP at their business.
This oversight allows pfSense/NetGate to remain superior over UniFi when it comes to robust router functionality.
Nice try though.
Wow thank you for this video! I really want the UniFi Dream Machine pro!!!!!!
Great review! I hadnt seen this new DM Pro until yesterday and was very hooked on using it to replace my CK gen 1 and my NVR solution. But like you I feel a bit concerned about putting all eggs in one basket, even for my small home setup because I want to make sure that my cameras are recording, the wifi is working for the all important ipads for the kids :) and my access to internal backup storage. The lack of USB output for external backup of Protect content is also a bit of a let down unless they manage to make that Pro-Pro idea with Raid1 options :)
Ps: Not sure why you are getting attacks from Denmark, we have no beef with Crosstalk except that you get access to all the awesome stuff before us *lol* ;)
