USG #

• when first factory reset, USG needs to be the DHCP provider, with minimal subnet mask of 255.255.255.0
  • this will allow UGS to be connected to the switch, assign the subnet IP to the switch and connect to Unifi controller
• ONCE in the unifi controller, it provisions the USG to the correct subnet mask when you create new VLANs
  • so for our home network here the new provisioned subnet mask is 255.255.254.0
• note after provision, USG is no longer the DHCP server?
• clear dhcp lease on usg with clear dhcp lease ip <ip_address>

USG Cannot Ping Controller #

• Odd thing here is that the USG cannot ping the Unifi Controller, even through it was on the same subnet
  • USG can see all other devices except for the ones behind the virual switch on QNAP
• Run Unifi Controller in Container Station on QNAP behind virtual switch
  • TURN OFF virtual switch spanning tree protocol option. This prevented USG from seeing the controller

Adopting new factory reset devices #

• MAKE SURE YOU “FORGET” the previous adopted devices

Factory reset AP #

• press reset and hold until the light TURN OFF

Factory reset Switch #

• unplug all the cables and then reset

Each VLAN has its own DHCP server?? #

• looks like USG is set as the network named “default” DHCP server
