We are looking at upgrading our network equipment from old HP switches and Aruba access points, we have a Fortinet firewall that we are happy with, so we’ll probably keep using them there, but for the rest we are looking for new stuff.
And we are looking closely at Ubiquiti for switches and APs, but two things have appeared on our radar.
Ubiquiti does have a cloud admin UI, this means that Ubiquiti needs to have access to our network controller to access this feature.
But what if we don’t use that, will Ubiquiti still be able to access the network controller?
I guess that what I am asking is how does the access control work?
Also, updates, I see that they seem to be very frequent and also see some scattered reports that they have required admins to reset their configs and loosing camera footage, can you set updates to be delayed for X days?
Yeah, I have a small Milrotik home router that I opened once, checked out Winbox for 15 min, realized I was WAY out of my depth and got an Asus router instead, this was about 8 years ago though, so things may have changed.
At this moment we are not really big enough to justify a dedicated network tech, which is why Ubiquiti have caught our eye.
