Description

This course is not officially sponsored by Ubiquiti Inc. and not an authorized course by Ubiquiti Inc. We are neither affiliated with nor endorsed by Ubiquiti Inc. We respect the Trademarks of the mentioned company and institution.

Most of network engineers work nowadays on Ubiquiti products. With UniFi Dream Machine Pro, our life has became much easier when it comes to configuring network devices. Additionally, the UDM Pro can give us possible to install to our customers cameras and manage them using UniFi Protect (in additional of UniFi Access and UniFi Talk)

For this reason, I have decided to build up a complete course to show you everything that you can do on the UDM Pro as per the UniFi Network and UniFi Protect.

That means we are going to work with Routing, Switching, VLAN, Firewall, Wireless, QOS as per the network part, then I will do a complete section speaking about how to install camera surveillance using UniFi Protect.

This course will be based on LABS - so if you wish to follow this course you should have a UDM Pro, a UniFi Switch, a UniFi AP and a UniFi camera.

Finally, if you wish to master the configuration on UDM Pro and to become a Ubiquiti expert, I highly advise you to enroll in this course so you will have a complete knowledge of configuring the UDM Pro device.

I look forward to see you in my course.
