Review software was Alpha, but should be in Early Release at time of product unveiling, I will update this post as Firmware goes from Alpha>EA>Full Release. This is needed for full hot swap failover.

Great video, thanks for the mention. :)

The brief clip of Randy and Mr. Laney has me as your latest fan and subscriber. I’m new to security tech and look forward to future videos.

Here is the thing. Unifi needs to allow IPS/IDS on some VLANS only. VLAN Office -> Internet IPS/IDS enables VLAN DMZ -> Internet IPS/IDS disabled VLAN DMZ -> VLAN SERVICE Internal traffic IPS/IDS disabled VLAN SERVICE -> VLAN DATABASE Internet traffic IPS/IDS disabled This would allow for 10Gb internet connectivity for the servers but enforce IPS/IDS for the users.

Dream machine has been in the gym! Nice

Great review.

Nice to have a backup drive for protect, I maxed my udm pro out with protect cameras.

We have some UDM-Pro's out there at clients who like them and this does seem a decent jump for the larger clients we deal with, the new HA mode seems really nice and looks like it will be nicer than the sonicwalls I am dealing with and the lack there of stateful HA due to no license for it...

I thought the processing power was equivalent to the UDM Pro SE? Good video

I was hoping that it could handle quite a bit more cameras than the Pro/SE but according to online tool it doesn’t really. Just a couple extra. Any thoughts? It’s touting double performance which in my mind puts this closer to a UNVR but seems to fall quite a bit short of that scouting to calculator.

Oooops, WAN speeds mixed up Clay. The SE was able to 2.5Gbps on WAN-1 (Port 9) and 1Gbps on WAN2 (Port 8). The UDM Pro was same but just 1Gbps on ports 8 and 9. Swapping drives with Protect might see the other drives swapped in wiped and formatted. Good to see they finally getting serious again. I checked out the calculator, claims to handle up to 150 WAP's so double the UDM-Pro and SE. Still was hoping for bigger CPU though.

Can you run shadow mode with a UDMPMax as the main device with the slave being a regular UDMP? Also, wish they had upgraded the CPU to handle true 10 gbps IDP/IDS.

Hi, could you tell us what the camera limit is on the pro max vs SE? Thanks

If you aren’t running IDS/IPS is there much reason to get the Max?

Smaller network, but I just bought a UDM SE about 4 days ago. I have POE switching and APs already as well. Since I am still within the return window, would it be worth upgrading to the UDM Pro Max right now before I get any further in my network setup?

Does the UDM Pro Max support LAG?

Unless I'm missing something I thought the POE capabilities has been dropped which came with the original UDMP

I wish I had more processing power at home. It isn't really about how many network devices I can connect, but more so the CPU needs a better upgrade to allow more WAN IPS throughput with all the other rules and filtering going on. Based on advertised UDM-SE throughput of 3.5gbps and getting a real world 2.5gbps down due to all the security features, I would bet this device and its "5gbps" advertised speed I bet it will also get closer to 3.5-4gbps, which really isn't enough for its price point and means this isn't capable of being used on the newer 5gb, 8gb, and 10gb ISP plans that have been coming out across the US the past year and moving forward. They really should have gone with a newer generation processor than one that is 12 years old, and made this 10gb IPS capable. They should have used at least an A72, or more preferably an A73 CPU core design. The A73 was the most powerful (but still old now) architecture ARM released that is on the exact same instruction architecture as the A57, so would be nearly drop in compatible without having to modify underlying software code. Edit: They could have gone with something like a Mediatek MT8183 CPU, which is used in low end Chromebooks that retail for two hundred and fifty dollars. That would mean hardware wise, Ubiquiti should be able to make a profit on a gateway based around it that sells for anything more than three hundred - three fifty. And since it would likely be sold for eight hundred instead, that would be huge profit for them and a massive jump in performance for the end user (roughly 2x what the UDM Pro Max can do).

Making a video for a product you didn’t have yet ….. SPECULATION !!!! Nothing new from UDM pro/SE just a second tray for the HDD same performance for internet traffic and no Poe !!!
