Introducing: Dream Machine Beast
Ubiquiti is out here trying their best to make enterprise level gear that will never be purchased by any respectable enterprise. Ubiquiti: Just name this the UDM-Pro 25G. It's yours. Take it, you're welcome.

What exactly does intrusion protection actually do? (Technically)
That's actually a really good quetsion. But let's tart at the bginning: What an IDS typically does is to look into the behavious of a host OR the content of packets (deep packet inspection).It checks if the content is suspisious, e.g. by using a list of known patterns how an atack looks OR the behav

The new Beast can't actually handle 40x 4k cameras? It official supports that many, but the capacity calculator says actually doing that exceeds capacity. What gives, shouldn't the limit be lower?
An ARM v8.2 CPU is circa 2017 (likely Cortex-A75), a v9 CPU is from 2020 at a minimum, with the Neoverse N2 from 2025. So yeah, 8 years worth of progress, definitely possible. The UDM line was previously using chips with a Cortex-A57 from 2015, same stuff in the Nintendo Switch 1. Ubiquiti is using

Yum. Same price as official store but free shipping
Honestly I’m confused why so many people one here complain about the shipping and tariff surcharges from Ubiquiti directly, when B&H has free shipping and no surcharges. Just ordered a UDM Pro and AP for exactly MSRP from B&H. If your credit card has a warranty extension benefit for purchases, I don

UNAS 4 - MARCH 2026 - PART II... yeah, theres more. it's the hardware too....
Great in-depth review as I think a write up like this may have had me hold off on my unas2 purchase. However, what this NAS has in lack of features can make up for in what you plan on using it for. (Give and take) My problems with ubiquiti at the moment is that they don't just make a great all aroun

Micro Center is trolling the UI store: No Memory Surcharges
Got the exact combo except I got my UDM SE from Ubiquiti. I ended up spending about $100 more through tarrifs,memory and shipping costs all for a 2 year warranty...bot sure if its worth it.

Updates Impacting UDM SE Stability?
Latest 5.x releases have memory leaks. Latest 5.0.16 seems to be impacting a lot of folks, see here: https://community.ui.com/releases/UniFi-OS-Dream-Machines-5-0-16/4b8a0a8b-f241-49a0-b0a3-c3de80d503ef?reply=1 Sounds like disabling IDS/IPS might be a good workaround for now … Pretty bad that they r

Is there any reason to buy the Enterprise Fortress Gateway now that the UDM Beast is out?
Hot swappable redundant power supplies and fans, as well as TLS inspection. You could speculate Ubiquiti left out these features intentionally from the Beast to not kill the EFG entirely. It's pretty dead anyways. It's a similar situation as with UCG FIber vs UDM Pro.

Help with a UPS recommendation
They will eventually fix the immediate shutdown with firmware. All truly new Ubiquiti products are beta. I do UNAS and UNVR automatic shutdown, but not the UDM until they fix this issue.

Will I get stuck if starting my own company?
let me be specific with the OP to show you what I am talking about - as far as money is concerned. I got hired by a company recently to install a small Ubiquiti network system - a UDM Pro, a 24 port 1G switch, a 24 port 10G switch, and 3 Access points. The technical part of this is every easy for me
