One of the biggest shortcomings in the Unifi UI is the lack of log file visibility. If you do a part 2 of the CLiI, please consider covering which log files on which devices are available for tail or cat type commands. APs may be different than switches than the UDM ( e.g., firewall logs, dhcp logs, etc.). Thanks for all of your hard work on getting the education out to all of us subscribers!
Very informative video, I have had problems with my Unfi Protect and could not figure out or find how to restart the Protect app and I see you post here... thanks I had a problem a week ago where my Protect got stuck in a starting loop when I tried to upgrade from 1.19.1 to 1.19.2. , I opened a ticket and they had me check some things and it turned out the UDM Pro did not like my Seagate 8tb Barracuda drive as the storage, I put in a 6TB WD and it started right up and is VERY responsive now and works like it should.
Very nice video. I would be very happy if you could show something about firewall logs. For example, how can you find out if certain requests of a client are blocked? Or which firewall rule is responsible for the block. Thank you for the unifi videos. I am now a real fan of it.
Shoot there was so much more I was hoping you'd show them then again this could go on forever lol... Good job nonetheless.. Some commands I keep handy are how to pinpoint layer 1 issues on a USW using show interface after entering priv exec & global config mode, show arp table; ip neighbors, removing/reinstalling Unifi applications/stopping/starting the individual services; run a PCAP. I'll join your discord and show you a few tools we use within my org to make our jobs easier.
6:10 indicates that the following is run "root@ubnt:/# unifi-os restart", but when I try this I get - "bash: unifi-os: command not found". The issue I'm trying to resolve is that following an upgrade the Network application shows as "Offline" and under Unifi OS the Network shows as status stopped. I also followed some instructions elsewhere which suggested "unifi-os shell press enter, then service unifi restartpress enter", but the response to this is "Failed to restart unifi.service: Unit unifi.service is masked." Any thoughts? (Thanks)
Hey Mac, is there a way to disable the built in "UniFi Controller" and connect the UDM to a Docker controller. I am looking to have the extra features within the docker version which from what I read will allow me to manage my docker networks. "The Docker version of the UniFi Network Controller is designed to be run as a Docker container, and includes additional features and integrations that are specific to the Docker environment, including the ability to manage Docker networks and containers."
at 6:09 you try to restart the unifi-os (container). But you are still in the container itself. Look at the prompt you entered 'unifi-os shell' before. So if you try to restarte the container by 'unifi-os restart' it'll not knowing such command from inside the podman container. I like this video very much, but could you explain, how the udm ist structured? e.g. to know, that it has an linux based os and the "services" are running in podman containers? Thx
is there any official documentation about all those commands? I would like to be able to turn on/off the POE power to some ports based on a schedule, but haven't found any info on whether that is even possible.
I have a USW-24-PoE switch which seem to be different that the other models. Normally I can telnet localhost and get in to see mac addr table, but with this switch, I have not found this option. Anyone who knows the trick?

that table of commands a really great find, thanks very much
This is going to be a popular video Cody and a good one to share with others that are trying to learn networking.
great video, I can tell you really know what you´re talking about. Regards from ARG

What about the FWUPDATE command, how is that used?
is there any official documentation about all those commands? I would like to be able to turn on/off the POE power to some ports based on a schedule, but haven't found any info on whether that is even possible.
How do I controll the fan speed. The usual command (swctrl fan set level 1) doesn't work
Is there a command we can run to see if a switch is being saturated or check the throughput from one switch to another?
Are the changes saved or do we have to redo it each time the switch is rebooted
Great Video
Thank you

How can you clear the ARP Cache on the switches?
What is the command to see ip address of the connected devices
How to do this on Mac OS?
can you please help me to disable RPS mode
