Ubiquiti UniFi Firmware Release Notes: 3.9.27.8537-4.0.21.9965

Sorting out all the different software releases from Ubiquiti can leave one in a bit of a tizzy (or at least it did me at first). Essentially things break down like this:

  • Most UniFi Equipment (APs, switches) – gets the general firmware release
  • UniFi Cloud Controller – this is the control software, the other software is installed on the individual devices, this is the management UI you use
  • UniFi Security Gateways – get their own firmware
  • UniFi Cloud Keys – get their own firmware, which is oftentimes just an update to the cloud controller software

Downloading Log Files from UniFi AP Using Secure Copy Protocol (SCP)

As far as I can tell, the UniFi APs don’t come with a SFTP server, so you’ll need to use SCP (which operates over SSH).

Unfortunately, it seems that most developers have dropped true SCP support from their software in favor of SFTP. Luckily, if you are on a *nix system (including MacOS) you can use the utility scp to accomplish this task.

scp nameofuser@ipofap:../../var/log/messages /local/path/on/computer

For those running Windows, you can either setup a Linux VM or use Microsoft’s WSL to gain access to SCP.

Note that the ../../ are important. By default SSHing into a UAP lands you in a folder /etc/persistent, you need to get back up to the root and then navigate into the /var/log where we’ll grab the messages file.

Ubiquiti UniFi Cloud Key Firmware Release Notes: 0.8.10 – 0.8.12 AND 0.10.0 – 0.12.4

Official Release Notes

The Great Firmware Split!

The last release notes for the UCK I published where for 0.8.9 – the current firmware version is 0.12.4 AND 0.8.12. What? Okay, there is a logical explanation – Ubiquiti has released the next generation (Gen2) of their UCK’s.

Ubiquiti UniFi SDN Controller Software Release Notes: 5.7.20

Introduction

This post serves several purposes. First and foremost it is a way for me to assimilate the information in the UniFi release notes. By rewriting it or simply copying it I find I retain more and understand more. Secondly, it is meant as a resource for others who use UniFi systems and find the release notes a bit difficult to follow. Finally, it is my attempt to delineate a better way in which Ubiquiti could create/release their notes.

I’d also welcome clarifications from anyone on various terms, associated forum posts, etc. throughout…perhaps we can learn together. 🙂
