      What controller is used for the EdgeSwitch line? Obviously not the Unifi Controller as it's a different line of equipment.

      No controller needed, it's not a Unifi. The need for a controller is the Unifi / Meraki concept.

        Nothing yet. I believe that the UNMS will eventually (if it doesn't already) support the Edge line.

        So how are people managing the Edge line of equipment currently?

        Either by command line or via the built in web gui.

        That is what I thought (web gui), but wanted to make sure. I didn't think of the CLI, but of course it's there.

        They are standard managed switches. So SNMP as well.

          My friend uses the Unifi switches. He has them to power the Unifi APs and the Unifi Cameras.

            Generally the unifi switches are for tiny deployments. How is he liking them?

              So the
              ES-48-LITE
              would be great i think
              No need for PoE, though i might order one of them with it.
              Now if i could find someone with them in stock so i can get them here by Friday.

                Amazon usually has these.

                        I got my ES-24-LITE for my house from Amazon. I haven't had a chance to set it up but you can also manage them with Ansible along with the web interface and the cli.

                            Good stuff. Another convert!

                              Look at the non-Unifi switches, too. They are cheaper and more powerful.

                              Last time I looked, they were priced identically.

                                UNMS should have support for the EdgeSwitch in Q1 of 2018 I believe.

                                  Make sure you update firmware first. These likely come with old firmware and the GUI has been updated to work better.

                                    Ubiquiti FTW. Great stuff, there.

                                      I'm a huge fan of these. Been running the ES-48-500W at home and at a number of clients and they've all just worked. Powerful features for the SMB and you seriously can;t go wrong for the price.

                                        These arrived an hour ago. Racked.
                                        I downloaded the firmware, then hit Begin Transfer.
                                        Still waiting, i assume this is normal as others say updates take awhile.
                                        edit: transfer done, now actually switching to the new update,
                                        1.1>1.7

                                          I'm running a UniFi Switch 48 POE-500W for a client. I know I won't go beyond the features of it for that client and being able to manage it through the controller is cool. It gives me great visibility in to their environment.

                                            I have this in several small locations as well. I agree, I enjoy the single pane of glass - of course I don't really have that because I am using ER-Ls there... but at least I have two panes instead of three I'd have today (I know ER switches are being added to UNMS soonish).
