I use RB1100 to manage 2 VLANs (vlan 2 and vlan 15). I set up trunk port on eth 9 & 10, I have 2 ubiquiti AP with 2 ssid; 1 for my private use (vlan id 2) and the other one is for guests (vlan id 15). Now this works alright at the moment, I can access both ssid getting ip and able to access internet etc. Now, I have just realized that the AP itself doesn’t get ip address because it’s asking ip from trunk port obviously. This being said, I cannot manage both my device using unifi controller. Is there any way so that these APs can get ip and be accessible from vlan 2. Thanks.
I’m new at ubnt (3 days) and have the same issue. My educated guess would be that there should be a management vlan parameter somewhere in the uap for a virtual interface ( like MT’s bridges), but I can’t seem to find it.
I just managed to get L3 discovery working and I’m happy with that.
UAP requires untaged vlan for management. so, you shoud create one more vlan (untaged) for management, or change one of your vlans to be untaged on port to which UAP is connected
Does that mean, in general, if you only have one trunk line and no managed switch that you will need to have a Mikrotik device that supports hybrid ports (afaik only QCA8337, AR8327 switch chips) in order to setup a management VLAN interface on Ubiquiti Unifi access points (APs), assuming you may enable VLAN filtering?
RIght now ubiquiti controller can’t see my APs when I want to make changes to them. However both SSIDs and respective VLAN works ok.
From my knowledge, the AP itself needs to get ip, however since I set up trunk port, it won’t get any ip. I will need to have both untagged and tagged vlan in one port (hybrid vlan port), is this correct?
Since it isn’t MikroTik related, I suggest you write me a email and I’ll share what I did.
But your right, as far as I cab tell, no ip, no management. If only they had a virtual interface we could assign to a vlan..
