UniFi Network: Centralized Wireless Network Management Platform

UniFi Network is a software platform developed by Ubiquiti Networks to manage wireless computer networks. It provides a centralized interface to configure and monitor Ubiquiti wireless access points and other network devices.

What is UniFi Network?

UniFi Network is an enterprise wireless management software platform created by Ubiquiti Networks. It allows network administrators to manage their Ubiquiti wireless access points and other Ubiquiti network hardware from a single interface.

Some key features of UniFi Network include:

  • Centralized management - Administer all UniFi devices on the network through a single UniFi Network Controller.
  • Detailed analytics and reporting - Get insights into clients, traffic patterns, RF utilization and more.
  • Secure network access control - Set up captive portals, VLANs, access policies and more.
  • RF optimization - Automatically set optimal channel and power settings for access points.
  • Easy adoption of new devices - New Ubiquiti devices auto-discover the controller for plug and play management.

UniFi Network is part of Ubiquiti's UniFi enterprise product line that also includes wired switching, routing, security gateways and more. It's aimed at small and medium sized organizations rather than large enterprises. UniFi devices are well-known for their combination of advanced functionality, versatility and affordability.
