08 - UniFi Protect Initial Setup - UDM-Pro Complete Setup 2021

[@Real_PhillBert]

I just picked up a UDM SE, and this series is incredibly helpful! Thank you for putting together such a great series, it's extremely helpful!

[@ThisBrownGeek]

The best series EVER!!! Thank you so so so much for this, you have no idea how helpful it is. You are awesome!

[@ZEN43D]

Cheers Chris, please keep the UDM-Pro vids coming.

[@MrGatlin98]

A video on setting up a VLAN for the cameras would be awesome. Similar to how you did you Guest network, and IoT network.

[@FragM3]

Chris already provided those Videos. Watch Part 04 and 05 of these Series.

[@MrGatlin98]

@@FragM3 I know he has provided vids on the Guest network and IoT network, and they're great. Which is why a similar video for a camera network would be nice too.

[@aswitalski]

@@MrGatlin98 Just apply the same concept. Choose a different subnet (192.168.40.1) and make all the same firewall rules, add to any existing rules to include the new .40.xxx, etc.

[@Didit_myself]

@@FragM3 adding a unifi camera to this doesnt work because the camera cant reach the udm pro

[@thefluentone]

I appreciate this series. Thanks so much for putting in this time.

[@brenoqueen873]

If protect had an option to run ip cams it would be f awesome

[@Obling95]

Great guide. What do you think of creating a seperate network for your cameras like your Iot network? Is it possible and/or would it make sense? Greetings from Denmark

[@elminster8149]

Camera's should always be setup on their own VLAN with no internet connectivity.

[@21Lettere]

@@elminster8149 yes, this should be the right setup (cameras has no access to the Internet), but this is going to stop the Protect App to work.

[@nickbraden1028]

I didn’t see you add the cameras to any of the networks we created. Do UniFi cameras not need to be given a defined network?

[@bertmonkey8457]

Hi Chris can Non Unifi cameras be added to the UDM Pro? ( RTSP or ONVIF )

[@MrLeonSong]

I have the same question here, I've got existing cameras in my house already, just would like to know if this would support them.

[@lmarcu91]

Nope, unifi only.

[@dipinvp8668]

I have Hikvision camera's, can i add the Hikvision camera's to the UDM Pro Protect?

[@GamerWo1fsChannel]

Was everything ran through the UDM-Pro or did you use another device from Unifi with POE?

[@Mike-of8dd]

Is there an option to have wired cameras? are the ports on the switch able to take the cameras?

[@dencope5332]

Hey, love all your videos, mostly because you make it easy to follow for people who don't work in the industry. I have a question for you, I purchased the UDM and love it however it is not the pro. Now I want to add the G4 Doorbell. Can I make this work with just the UDM? I may expand to the UDM Pro later but for now just want the doorbell connected to the UDM. Will this work? Thanks.

[@louiem5985]

Is there a function to format a new driver or old driver that you install in the dream machine? I have a couple 8tb drives that I bought a while ago had some info on them but wanted to use them for now in the UDM.

[@Didit_myself]

Can you do a video for a unifi protect camera specific vlan?

[@dmas4262]

Hey Chris I don't know if you will see this since this is an older video but I have a question for you. My goal in life is to start a business in a similar field to you(i want to own my own datacenter). However, I am currently in college studying IT. Once I get my degree are there any tips you could give me on starting a business(I am currently a super small 1 employee business owner so I do know a bit about the business world). Also would you consider yourself successful(at least where you would like to be)? If that last question is too personal feel free to ignore it

[@kelemvor3333]

So there's options for 720 and 4k but not 1080?

[@ivargas1207]

Hello Chris, Question for you. Does Dream machine Pro support all Camera? Or do I need a additional PoE switch to power them?

[@jocelynalbers9872]

You would need either a PoE switch or some PoE injectors if you have the UDM-Pro. However, there is currently a UDM-Pro-SE in the works (in Ubiquiti Early Access) that has PoE built in, in which case you would NOT need an extra PoE switch or PoE injectors. Chris has a video on the UDM-Pro-SE here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gGSvnqCBit57f9E

[@chercm]

nice video , how to set the firewall rules if the recording is on the udm SE ?

[@user-mg7je1il7v]

Do you think the switch 48 Poe will be able to power 20 bullet cameras?
