TIPS

• Use a reverse proxy like Traefik, Nginx to terminate TLS with a valid certificate
• Use Let’s Encrypt certificates to protect your SSL endpoints

Disclaimers

• ¹ This image will automatically disable anonymous telemetry collected by Ubiquiti by adding a flag (config.system_cfg.1=system.analytics.anonymous=disabled) to each sites config.properties. You will still have to disable telemetry in the global settings too, to disable all telemetry. You can check your telemetry status by SSH’ing into an access point and checking grep analytics /tmp/system.cfg, the output should read disabled. Make sure to also DNS block the FQDN trace.svc.ui.com in your DNS blocker.
