Time to SSH into the AP using the admin username and password you set months ago… $ ssh you’re logged in, reset the AP to factory defaults. Using nmap I scanned all the available hosts on my LAN to find which were listening on port 22 (SSH). Of course, I didn’t have my original controller configuration around and so I found myself unable to manage my AP. Last night though I wanted to perform a firmware update to fix some compatibility issues with my Nest thermostat. I set my Unifi AP up once 6 months ago and forgot about it. Adopt an already managed Access Point with a new controller instance Once you’ve got the container running just go to (note https) and from there it’s just the standard UniFi software. At LinuxServer.io we make a ton of Docker containers and UniFi just happens to be one of them, linuxserver/unifi. I started writing this section but realised it ended up just being a repeat of the documentation included with the container on Docker hub. Setting up the controller software in Docker I’ll also cover adopting an AP which is already managed by another controller instance plus some cool network scanning tips to make this process even easier using nmap. Wouldn’t it be fanastic if this software could run headless on your Linux server? Well you can using Docker ( linuxserver/unifi), this article will show you how. The Ubiquiti wireless access points are new to me but damn are they fantastic! Rather than logging into each AP via it’s IP directly, you are required to use the Ubiquiti controller software.
