Unifi - Managing Multiple Sites

In this video, I quickly gloss over the basics of managing multiple sites inside a Unifi controller. If you are managing many different locations from a single controller, sites are definitely something you should be familiar with. There are a few different ways to adopt devices to a controller which isn't on the same local network which I will cover in a separate video. This is called layer 3 adoption.

As always, if there are any questions leave them in the comments below. I try my best to go through all the comments and answer the ones I am able.

The main reason I moved from multi sites is the philosophy of putting the control in the owners hands. The other change that happened after this move was Ubiquiti building the controller into their products. I know other IT businesses were using the multi-site config but I suspect this might have changed for the same reason.

Ont other thing to keep in mind, when using Multi-Site either in one organization or as an MSP, there is a limit to the number of devices in total for the Controller type, (Hosted VM, UCK-G2, etc.). Without optimization I think the useful limit is 40 or so devices.

Lawrence Systems has done a vid on optimization as well.

Please do a L3 video. Dearly needed. :)
