Description

Ubiquity network (ubnt) provides a UniFi controller which can run on a Linux server to monitor your UniFi devices. Those are WiFi and networking, professional grade devices. This contribution allow to install and follow the upgrade of this controller on a SME server . As this is proprietary software, we can not bundle it as a rpm and distribute it. This rpm is all you need to easily download and install with the least intervention on your SME.

Follows the steps to configure the interface, and add your first devices.
