  • Dear @axel_k,

    Dear @mabu1,

    The description on how to solve the connection of an USG to an IB seems very promissing.

    I will try it in the coming days. I tried it already once and I gave up.

    can you confirm that this should work with both USG models:

    • Ubiquiti USG: UniFi Security Gateway Pro 4
    • Ubiquiti USG: UniFi Security Gateway

    Thank you for your great help!

    Sorry, I didn’t mentioned to have static dhcp on the IB port for the USG. But you figured it out.

  • @axel_k

    Yes exactly, IB LAN to USG WAN. But I would recommend to use a 1 GBit link. Heard about some issues with the 2,5 GBit link here in the german part of the community.

    If you cant manage to change the network settings on the USG, leave it as it is.

    Change the IB network to 192.168.2.1 or whatever you like and connect the USG gear to a LAN port on the IB.

    Use the DMZ feature on the IB (enable expert mode on and look at the network tab => DMZ).

    Choose the USG in the pull down list and all should work fine. Now you have on the USG side a double NAT setup.

    if you want to run SWTV on the USG side, you need to setup igmp and make some firewall rules afaik.

    @Tux0ne and @BurningRoli are the experts regarding USG and TV.

    edit: SWTV can be connected directly to the IB and it will still work.
