came here to say this exactly! hah!

I think it missed the ball and should have had 4x SFP+ ports to allow for true redundancy and resiliency. 2 internet links for wan failover. 2 core switch links for an individual link to a pair of aggregation switches. (Each aggregation switch has a link to both UDM Pro Max) Most redundant and resilient setups have 2 of everything. If a core switch dies, the secondary link to the secondary switch takes over. It still has a single point of failure with 1 link cable to 1 switch and if a aggregation switch dies, it still needs manual input to physically move the SFP uplinks from dead switch to active switch

Not to mention having redundant links between switches as well, where in his diagram you would have 2 x Agg switches, with both UMDP/SE/Maxs connected to both Agg switches, with an interconnection between the Agg switches. There would then been connections from both Agg switches to every subsequent device switch in the structure, so regardless where you had a failure, you still had full communication between the UDMPs and every switch on the network (except the failed device). Admittedlyit would be a headache to setup and get working to that level of redundancy, but once its setup your only fail point is an actual DC outage... which if it was really critical to you, you would then have a secondary (backup) DC site setup the same as well where you do regular config backup restores to whilst running in either a hot or cold DR setup..

Excellent video as always. Can't say that I understand why Ubiquiti didn't put 2x 3.5" into the SE when they were going to do it here anyways. Unless they maybe thought it would cannibalize the sales of this device? As for large scale installs, wouldn't they use a dedicated NVR instead? I would actually more understand having PoE than the two HDD. A dedicated NVR you could put almost anywhere on a network. However, laying down RJ45 cables can sometimes be limited. Having access PoE in lots of places is always a nice bonus.

This feels like an odd device. If this is meant for big deployments, why keep the protect support while dropping PoE? Wouldn't those customers just have NVR/NVR Pros for even more redundancy & storage? Similarly 8 GbE ports seems like a waste if you're just going to plug it into a larger switch anyway. Seems like they could drop a lot of the fluff and just make a pure router/controller with dual WAN in, 1 or 2 GbE ports for Shadow mode, 2 SFP+ ports for core switch redundancy and probably have a better device for it. Would love to see a Dream Machine Pro SE 2 with the dual HDD support and some 2.5GbE PoE++ ports for their WiFi 7 gear. Would make a kick-ass future-proofed homelab/small office controller without requiring the NVR and a big pro switch for basic NVR redundancy and faster WiFi support.

We didn't use the UDM in the last install. With just 10 cameras, it struggled to keep the HD streams stored. The NVR is the best for low cost, but the NVR-Pro smashes it. We've just pushed 37 cameras to it and it's perfect. We do ANPR and gate control too. Two on the site for redundancy...

At least in customers minds. You also need to have things that are mission critical, and then things are luxury. The example you made the UDM is mission critical as none of the other components work without it, having a backup is mission critical. The other switches could be farmed to an old switch laying around if it failed or mission critical areas could be plugged directly into the UDM. It all comes down to cost vs benefit.

What good is shadow mode with a setup like the one presented at 9:13? There are still single points of failure, like the USW Aggregation switch to start with. You would need at least two of them. Then, the distribution switches could still fail.

Would be interesting, how much performance you could measure with iperf3 single thread just routing between two vlans on the LAN SFP+ port. Performance was way to slow in my setup with UDM PRO. Hope they have fixed that.

I also think the Aggregate switches should have failover/HA - if the Aggregate dies then you basically end up in the same position as loosing the UDM. Also, if you are an enterprise customer more than likely you will be using an NVR or NVR-Pro. It would be good if Ubiquiti started adding these features to other suitable devices.

Yes I agree 2 SFP+ with link aggregation on each switch I would upgrade. Was disappointed my UDM does not support link aggregation Also I know when using Cisco 6500 equipment we can spread link aggregation between two switches ( working as a team) Wish that feature would exist on UNIFI

question, what software you used to create the visual of the home network? Great Video!!

@CrosstalkSolutions I would love it if you could make a video on setting up port forwarding/firewall rules to forward traffic to internal servers on a network. I have a multi-IP/single WAN connection but cannot get the rules to work reliably.

How does the failover work for failures on the LAN? Will it track the port status and automatically fail over?

Hi Chris, regarding the Flex 10 GbE switch that you are using to split your WAN ISP conmnection, did you have to do any configuration to make this work on the switch itself with VLANS? If so, could you potentially post a guide or perhaps additional instructions on howm to accomplish this? It looks like the Flex 10GbE has a white LED which means its unadopted/unmanaged so I would assume youre using it as a dumb switch as opposed to a managed one? I just got two pro maxes and want to use HA but only have one downstream ISP connection from ATT Fiber for the 5GB internet. Thanks in advance!

Interested to see if shadow mode is working how I’m thinking with the switch being in place before the wan connections. Right now I have my modem connected through the network as you did in your starlink setup but will that also apply to shadow mode now where I can set both udms to do that. Also doing the same with failover lte modem so now I’m thinking of trying both routed through the network to have a super seamless experience.

Can you use a unifi switch vlan to split the internet connection? We do this at my office with some Cisco 9300s because of stacking and power stacking one switch can power the other switch if it looses power or fails.

Hi Chris, since you get Unifi equipment early, do you know if there's a follow-up to the UDM-SE where the ports have PoE (unlike the Pro Max), increased backplane bandwidth, and more CPU power? I used the UDM SE with 60+ users and found the throttling and packet shaping hurt speed and even required reboots and rework of the network configuration. I eventually gave up on throttling and had a very limited set of rules in order to not overburden the CPU.

How does the IP HA work, does it rely on VRRP or are the interfaces in a shutdown state when the UDM is in passive mode? Jus interested on the IP side of things.

Would be nice if you could use the pair of drive bays (optionally) for a basic network share instead of for Protect.

Wouldn't you do a fiber loop between all switches and both UDM?

In shadow mode, does the secondary UDM notify you if it has a failure or is not running correctly?

Will the next one be the Pro Max Ultra Plus Premium? These names are insane.

Hi Chris, Am I right in saying that if you have a 10Gbps WAN connection, you'd need to have it going into an Aggregation/Pro switch to be able to pass out the SFP+ connections to the 2 UDMs?

I have the original UDM Pro, including VMs, it manages ~2k machines currently just fine, and the only way I'm upgrading to another Ubiquiti device is if they finally add support for IPv6-only VLANs. (There's also an issue with bonded interfaces reporting as two devices with the same IP, but I've been working with their support team for a couple weeks now to hopefully resolve this).

Hi can the harddrives for the camerad be backed up to a nas?

That enterprise set up has some nice HA and redundancy, but the single point of failure at the aggregation switch is an issue.

What software do you use for your system diagrams?

The built in switch doesn’t have 2.5? What?

Instead of running the drives as RAID 1 is there a way to run it as JBOD to increase total storage capacity?

What filesystem do they format the drives to?

Any improvement in PPPoE performance over the UDM Pro? Currently need to use an Edge Router 4 (which has hardware PPPoE support) as a in-between to handle the PPPoE WAN which then gives the UDM Pro a much more basic connection.

my guess is there is a dumb switch between the ISP and the UDM-Pros. But then you re-introduce single point of failure. you are almost better off creating a private vlan for the ISP; assigning that to a few ports of the switches and handling it that way. I think he does that in is "Lakehouse building to building bridge"video

How are your two routers sharing a single ISP connection? Are they each pulling a unique public IP? Are they static or DHCP?

Interesting. We've never adopted Protect as the cost to replace all our cameras with Ubiquiti cameras would be ridiculous. But if we did..... I would want to be able to split the camera recording between the two drives for faster I/O speeds, rather than have raid functionality .

I wonder if the 8 Gigabit Ports have full Gigabit-Speed each this time, or just share 1GB Bandwitch on the Backplane for all Ports like the UDM Pro/SE...

For the wan fail over, does it share the single public IP or do both units require different public IPs? Sonicwall can share, but other cloud solutions require separate IPs to keep each device cloud connected. Great video, and blast you, I just looked and fios now offers 5Gb internet... The upgrade battle never ends.. :)

Your large deployment diagram doesn't show the RPS connected to the two Switches. It also probably should have included a switch to split the WAN connection which will likely be needed. It's a bummer that the 8 port aggregation switch doesn't support RPS, for a single switch that's critical like aggregation that would be huge. In a large deployment it would be worth the cost bump to the 28 port Agg switch just to have RPS.

One feature I would love to see with Ubiquiti's switch lineup is the ability to stack switches to make one logical switch. I would highly consider Ubiquiti in a medium sized network if they had that!

can you show how to do fully meshed LAN infrastructure? Does Unifi support this yet?

Any word on if this improves PPPoE throughput? Unfortunately some of us are stuck on services that, while Multigigabit, are hampered by the throttled throughput of PPPoE on the /SE.

But will it work to have the two UDMs go to separate 10gbit switches? To me it feels very silly that they kept the 8 port switches and not added an extra WAN 10gbit fiber port. OTOH this thing is only rated for 5gbit performance with all security features on, so maybe that's okay. It does annoy me that I have to choose between direct fiber input (I do that now in the office on our UDM Pro) or two LAN 10 gbit lines. I assume these choices were done to keep development cost down, but that just makes this thing look a bit like a frankenswitch (TM).

Hey Chris! Will you be looking in to the Gateway Max? And perhaps comparing it to the Gateway lite? Are there any differences other the the Max having more ports? Would make for an interesting video! :)

Ugh, in your test for shadow mode you just moved your single point of failure to the small switch between the gateways and the internet. I'm struggling with this with Meraki firewalls. At one site I have Comcast dedicated ethernet yet their device only allows one port to be active, meaning you have to put in a switch between multiple firewalls and the Comcast equipment. Which is ridiculous because their CABLE business internet routers have FOUR local ports so you can easily put one port to each firewall. I have the same issue with Verizon FIOS coming out of an ONT. Just one local connection so you have to use a switch between the ISP router to the firewall devices.

Why adding a single point of failure with the aggregator. If it’s down, what ever resiliency you have anywhere else is gone too no?

Shadow mode protects against a UDM failing but, at least in the example you showed, you still have single points of failure in the downstream switches. Is a UDM failure more likely than a switch failure?

​@@jbunselmeyerProblem is that the UDM-Pro-Max has only a single 2,5 GBit/s WAN Port and two SFP+ Ports. This limits you quite a bit. You could use the 2,5 Gbit/s Port as WAN and then use the two SFP+ Ports to link to your redundant core switches. This hoewer means you're stuck with 2,5 Gbit/s WAN. If you want to use one of the SFP+ Ports as WAN to get more bandwith you only have a single SFP+ Port left to link to your core switch (which isn't enough for a redundant setup). And all this means you'r only getting a single WAN Port and won't be doing redundant internet links from two diffrent providers (or two links to the same provider ...). So the UDM-Pro-MAX appears to only be a little redundancy but not really an enterprise solution with high uptime requirements.

Why no redundancy in the aggregation SW level?

SNMP Support?

2:24 I mean the UDM Pro isn't really "the previous model"... the SE is, and the SE also has 2.5G WAN.

Glad they are finally rolling out redundancy

I understand that it is for "large deployments", but the simple fact that it doesn't even a single, much less 2, SFP28 or SFP56 or SFP112 ports means it fails in that definition. As others have said below, they really should make a version of this that has either 8 2.5G ports or 8 SFP+ ports and 2 (if 8 ports are SFP+) or 4 SFP+ (if the 8 ports are 2.5G) for WAN/LAN, designed for "Power Home Users".

What does an aggregation switch do?

Im glad to see the failover capability coming. I feel like from a network perspective this still misses the mark. there should be more SFP+ ports, maybe only SFP+, I feel like 1Gb should be dying and minimum should be 2.5 in this day and age. I get the reason given for no POE, but a few would have been nice. Full support for LACP should be a requirement at this level, if they could aggregate across the HA pair that would be getting to the enterprise level. The mirrored drive capability is good to see as is the failover. Is there a way to automate backing up the data since it does not replicate?

You say not for home, but when that AI get released it will be EPIC for a secure home device ;)
