How To Connect a UniFi AP to remote UniFi Server via SSH

SSH into the UniFi AP

ssh ubnt@unifiip

The default username and password is ubnt.

once your in the UniFi type in

mca-cli

and then type in

set-inform http://UniFiControllerip:8080/inform

The UniFi should now show up in the UniFi controller as “Pending”

Adopt it and go back the the Unifi AP and run the above set-inform command again.

set-inform http://UniFiControllerip:8080/inform

If everything went well the UniFi AP should now be active in the UniFi controller.

If the UniFi was connected to a previous UniFi controller then it is going to need to be reset.  You can do that by running the following command after sshing into the device.

syswrapper.sh restore-default

After it is reset, you can run the first commands again to adopt it to the controller

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv C0A52C50
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 7F0CEB10

Update the system

sudo apt-get update

Install the UniFi software

Setup SNMP for Ubiquiti Radios

First lets install SNMP.

On Red Hat type systems such as Fedora and CentOS do the following

yum install -y net-snmp net-snmp-utils

If you are using a Debian based distro the you can use apt.

apt-get install snmp

You will need to make sure that SNMP is turned on in the radio under the Services tab.

Be sure to remember the SNMP Community string as that is needed in the next step.

Now try to connect to the device with the following command.

snmpwalk -v1 -c comunityname 192.168.1.20

You should receive something like the following.

...
IF-MIB::ifSpecific.5 = OID: SNMPv2-SMI::zeroDotZero
SNMPv2-MIB::snmpInPkts.0 = Counter32: 484
SNMPv2-MIB::snmpOutPkts.0 = Counter32: 471
SNMPv2-MIB::snmpInBadVersions.0 = Counter32: 0
SNMPv2-MIB::snmpInBadCommunityNames.0 = Counter32: 12
SNMPv2-MIB::snmpInBadCommunityUses.0 = Counter32: 0
...

If you received

Timeout: No Response from 192.168.1.20

Then either the SNMP Community name is wrong or the ip address is unreachable.

The following command will list all the interfaces on the device.

snmpwalk -v1 -c comunityname 192.168.1.20 ifDescr
IF-MIB::ifDescr.1 = STRING: lo
IF-MIB::ifDescr.2 = STRING: eth0
IF-MIB::ifDescr.3 = STRING: eth1
IF-MIB::ifDescr.4 = STRING: wifi0
IF-MIB::ifDescr.5 = STRING: ath0
IF-MIB::ifDescr.6 = STRING: br0

Notice the number at the end of the ifDescr, That number identifies the interface.  You will need that for the next command.

Now lets check the signal. Note that the last number of the OID(the OID is the last string of numbers) is the interface number of ath0.  Yours could be different depending on how you have the radio setup.

snmpwalk -v1 -c communityname 192.168.1.20 1.3.6.1.4.1.14988.1.1.1.1.1.4.5

Here is a short list of OID’s.  To use them just run the above command but replace the OID with the one you want.

RxRate of 5'th interface (ath0) of the device (bps): 1.3.6.1.4.1.14988.1.1.1.1.1.3.5
TxRate of 5'th interface (ath0) of the device (bps): 1.3.6.1.4.1.14988.1.1.1.1.1.2.5
Channel: 1.3.6.1.4.1.14988.1.1.1.1.1.7.5
Firmware Version: 1.2.840.10036.3.1.2.1.4
Hostname: 1.3.6.1.4.1.14988.1.1.1.1.1.5
AP MAC: 1.3.6.1.4.1.14988.1.1.1.1.1.6
Station MAC: 1.2.840.10036.1.1.1.1
Signal 1.3.6.1.4.1.41112.1.4.5.1.5.1 (OID seems to vary a little bit, from nanoBeam to nanoStation)
