“Ethernet Blueprint”

The Ubiquiti UDM Pro is a great router/firewall and controller for you your network, but it can be a little intimidating to a new user. One of the great benefits of the UDM Pro is it’s ability to handle VLANs.

This video will give you an overview of how to set up VLANs on your Unifi Dream…

  1. What prevents your kids from unplugging their xbox network cable from the kids vlan switchport and connect the network cable to one of the switchports that have access to the main vlan which is unrestricted?
    A kid could physically unplug the network cable of the xbox or pc and connect it to a switchport of the dad’s pc when the dad is not home, this way they get unrestricted access to everything.
    Is there a sticky MAC address option so that a switchport only allows access to a specific mac address?

  2. Thank you for the video. You do have a wealth of information, but I would suggest cutting the fat, so to speak. You really don't get into the meat and potatoes of the vid till after 18min. I understand what you're trying to do, but there is really no need to explain the same concepts at the beginning several times in a format where the viewer can pause, rewind at will. I would also take some liberties with assuming your audience. If people are here looking for guidance with VLANs, you could probably assume they have some basic working knowledge of home networking. Especially with Unifi being entry enterprise grade equipment. The fact they even have it, and know about it shows a knowledge level baseline above your typical mom and pop "buy the Eero box" and plug it in mentality. Again, love the content. We appreciate it.

  3. do i need the switch to make this work? i set up the vlan and cannot connect to the internet on it, i have a UDM . assuming its because i dont have switch? plz help our family

  4. One immediate issue – under settings – networks I have no option to create a new network… any ideas? Although there is a section underneath networks called Virtual networks where you can create VLANS??

  5. Great video Tim, thank you for your insight. Where's the follow up part 2 clip discussing the IP groups and especally the Firewall rules? You've left us in a bit of suspense, with a network that doesn't quite yet comply to the one you modeled for us! Please be so kind as to finish what you started, I have now been on a very long coffee break 😉

  6. Thank you! When setting this up on a UDMSE with AP's connected to it, there is no option to use the "all" profile for the AP's (Network 7.4.162 and UniFi OS 3.1.15). Maybe this changed with new software? Currently the primary network is set to default with the option to change this to the created vlans. Is it ok to leave it at default (noticed when creating networks vlans are now separated from the default lan)?

  7. Technically, the "Default" network is not a VLAN. It is the primary network and all other networks added can be set to be VLAN's. Most folks will put all of their UniFi gear like controllers, switches, and access points go on the Default network and then we create a Main VLAN that we put our computers, phones, and so forth on.

    When you create VLANS, if you don't create any Firewall additional rules, then any device on one VLAN can still talk to any device on another VLAN; until you create the Block Inter VLAN rule. Ubiquiti by default allows everything to talk to everything. Just creating a VLAN does not block Inter VLAN traffic. You have to add rules to do this.

    Also, you cannot delete any Firewall rules unless you have created them.
