Hi Everyone
I'm new to the site and have a few questions about Ubiquiti Unifi which i hope can be answered.
I was looking at the Troy Hunt videos last night and i was impressed with what i saw however i'm just a little confused about a few things that i'd need unifi to meet for a friend's bar business:
1. Scheduling the Wifi - I'd need to set schedules for the customer's wifi as i've been told the residents above the bar are using the bar's wifi. Obviously this cannot be stopped fully when the wifi is online but when the bar is shut, it would be nice to turn the customer wifi off.
2. Guest Wifi / VLANS - need to keep customers off the business network. I guess this is done by the SWG?
3. Is it possible to have a custom login screen so that customers almost have to do a click passthrough or enter their social details (facebook, google) to logon to the wireless
4. Rate limiting - I'd like to be able to rate limit the guest wifi as this business only has 20mb connection. I'd like to offer maybe 10 - 12 mb for guests and the rest would be enough for card payments etc.
5. Can the unifi system do port forwarding as the business has CCTV which is remotely accessible.
6. Does it support DDNS?
7. At the moment, they have a basic router. I'm planning on installing a draytek 2830 for now with no wireless and configure it so that the router they have at the moment is used as a dumb AP away from the main network. Does the SWG do this or should i keep the draytek there if and when the unifi goes in.
8. What firewall settings can be configured
9. Is there a database of sites say gambling, adult, etc that can be blocked
Equipment:
I guess i will need:
- AP-AC-Pro - maybe 2 of these for the bar
- Cloud Key for remote access to the network
- 8 /16 /24 port PoE switch from ubiquiti
- Security Gateway
- Draytek Vigor 130 for the incoming ADSL connection which will be connected to the Security gateway
I think that is it.
I was going to put in a draytek 2860n router and 2 APs as the draytek will pretty much do everything i want it to do but i thought i'd look at the unifi range.
I'd be grateful on your comments on the above questions and if you have any comments or suggestions, please let me know.
Thanks
