      @JaredBusch said in Ubiquiti Security Gateway - Is there a software version:

      That is actually something I very much dislike about the unify controller now. I have no way to disable all of that crap if I'm only going to be running access points.

      Do they really effect the performance of the controller (system)?

        @JaredBusch Right. That's why I always assumed the USG was really limited. That is all I could find for network settings.

        @Dashrender Ah ok. That makes sense

          No, there's no effect to performance - but someone unfamiliar looking at it might think there is something going on when there isn't with all of those settings.

            it was limited only via the GUI. If you created a JSON file on the controller in the correct location, you could do darn near anything a EdgeRouter can.

            The GUI is finally catching up with the features.

              That's what I was thinking.... I saw it on my controller here, and immediately disregarded it...

                Ah ok. Ya that's mostly how I use mine anyway. Like I said, I've never used one so I'm running on assumptions.

                  I'm pretty sure you can actually fully control the APs through the CLI and JSON files. I think you can use the CLI to tell it where to get the JSON file (a none Unifi controller), but damn. .talk about pain.

                    I didn't realize you could use the config files for the APs. I've only used the busybox shell for joining the controller. Makes sense that it would use them though.

                      I think that's how most if not all of it works. using the GUI, you update the JSON files, they are then downloaded to the devices, tada.

                        That is also my understanding but not something I've ever checked or tested
