I suspect the MSP provides their own managed firewall as part of the service. Otherwise they would just be an ISP.

Great work as always! I'm glad to see you are using the velcro on the Panduit cabling. Zip-ties on Panduit cabling is a big no-no and I believe it will fail certification. Panduit is the BMW of cabling - its almost all that we use. As for the electrical boxes you were working on in this video, it looks like you are using the Paradox 8" x 10" x 3" metal boxes??? Paradox also makes a 11" x 11" x 3" metal box. I use the 11 x 11 x 3 box when doing similar work - and they work very well. The 11 x 11 x 3 metal box can even fit a full 10A mount and still be able to close the door (and lock it - if you want). Those are both sold by the distributor that you and our team use. The project was very well done - love the attention to detail, such as centring the WAP on the 2x2 ceiling tile. NICE JOB!

Great Job and very clean and and well organized :-), if you don't mind i wold like to know your opinion i will have to connect 3 x Unify16 port switches to an UDM-Pro, I know is a bad idea to daisy chain switches so here what i have in mind , Cable modem to the UDM-Pro ( connection to the WAN interface) UDM-Pro CAT6/CAT7 to the first switch as both are located physically in the same location, i not concerned about uplink speed as the modem speed is limited to 1 gb/s anyway. And using the two optical ports of the the UDM-Pro to uplink to the other 2x Unify16 port switches. i have to use optic fiber as the limiting fact is the distance ( more then 300 feet/100m), what do you think? would you have done it differently ? Feed back much appreciated , Thank you.

@alexbarulho 3 ай бұрын

I have the exact same setup for redundancy. Initially had bought a USW-Pro-48 that a few months died on me. Now I have 2 x USW-Pro-24 so in case one of them dies, I can transfer the essential connections to the working switch until I get a replace.

@SomeRandomPerson 3 ай бұрын

It looks like it's trying to be an 'airlock' type setup. Someone could follow you through the first one, but you have an opportunity to stop them before they can barge in. I don't know if Access can be set up to have an interlock between door 1 and door 2 - that is, only one door can be open at a time. I've seen something like it in more secure entry areas - but those had permanent guards for ensuring no tailgating.

Nothing shown here would stop you using v6. I'm typing this on a device which has a v6 address, connected to a unifi AP, which is connected to a unifi switch. Neither of those two has or needs it's own v6 address, and those device's management interfaces don't get internet access.

@webluke 3 ай бұрын

So they got sold on "everything is in the cloud," and they don't need a firewall? Some of these sales guys should know better that they need something other than the the ISPs modem. Sure, the box probably does basic DHCP, but that's not advice a business should get with a medium-sized office network based on the number of drops. The cost difference for a Cloud Key vs DSMPro is not that much; he should have insisted on it.
