Dream Machine Pro - Unbox and Setup Part 1

[@briancave3823]

Dude.. your special effects are going other level and your DJ voice is in full force. A master class of ... Oh hell... I don't know what.

[@TCD_TheComputerDad]

You're the man! Have to keep the DJ voice - cannot let them know the real me... ;) A master class in how not to RTFM... They print instructions for a reason, kids.

It would be good to show the Configuration of the UDM PRO for all those who are not to familiar with the unit. Show Optimal configuration setting and such

[@TCD_TheComputerDad]

Good call - I plan to do a revisit of that setup. Building a base configuration guide that is vendor agnostic as part of a Networking 101 course. I'll sneak the UDM Pro setup in during that series.

I also have a UDM pro coming in to replace my cloud gen2 and USG-pro4. When will your next video part 2 come out …

[@TCD_TheComputerDad]

I am working to get it out next week. I have it all staged but had to dispatch for an emergency network build out west. I’ll make sure it includes all the steps to transition from the UCK to the UDM and some roundabout methods to stage the gear while not borking the current prod network.

Why not the pro SE

[@TCD_TheComputerDad]

I thought about it, but I wanted to just kick the tires on the platform. I was not fully sold that it would be my edge device. I run an SRX300 series firewall (well did - stay tuned for my part 2 as I am now completely on the UDM Pro) that was doing just fine. I've seen the SEs in the wild and the PoE feature is useful in SoHo deployments. An AP or two, couple wired devices, and a WAN uplink then you're set. The added benefit, if you get a drive, of throwing on a camera or two is huge.
