Access the Control Software
The network and the APs are managed via the UniFi web interface. UniFi was originally hosted on Host03A as a VM. It now runs on a physical device (UniFi Cloud Key Gen2 Plus) in the office on the first floor:
- Location:
DevOps-Office, inside the rack, underneath the switch
- IP:
10.27.254.87
- Credentials:
Bitwarden or Ansible Vault
To set up the device, see the official documentation.
Open a browser and navigate to https://10.27.254.87. The credentials are stored in Bitwarden or in the Ansible Vault. See secrets.yml.
The UniFi control panel will open.
UniFi Control Panel
The control panel has a very intuitive design, but there are two basic interfaces that we need in order to configure and maintain the WLANs.
The panel for devices. Here you can manage all the APs (update, restart).
The device panel with all adopted APs.
The panel for WLANs. You can find it in the settings tooltip. Just click the button named WiFi. The panel then opens and shows all available WLANs. After a reset of the APs, the WLANs have to be configured as shown below.
Wireless network settings.
Change the guest WLAN password from time to time, and remember to update the corresponding Bitwarden entry as well.
