There has been much talk of varying network setups with regard to vlan’s and how many vlan’s is correct UDM Pro & Control 4 setup

I have just installed the following into a new build and would like some assistance

UniFi Equipment

  1. UDM Pro
  2. Multiple 48 Port POE Switches
  3. UniFi 6 Lite access points
  4. UniFi Protect NVR
  5. UniFi Protect cameras

 Various Control 4 equipment including C4 wireless light switches, EA5, sound etc

 Any C4/ UniFi pro’s out there able to set this up correctly/remotely.

I have a similar setup but have since changed the wireless APs to ruckus but otherwise same.   I started by setting up 4 or so VLANs but later reverted to just 2.  One the primary network and a VLAN  just for my video cameras... I'm sure one of the folks on the site can help you set it up.   It's very straight forward and easy to do remotely.

Protect doesn't integrate with C4 properly.  Go with Dahua for CCTV.

Not sure what you mean.  There is a third party Protect driver, and the thing emits RTSP streams anyways.  The NVR interface is a lot better than Dahua.

Agree and why would you want to give up the Protect functionality which is really good with good IOS functionality.    Just run a RTSP stream via C4 if you want but honestly I rarely use my RTSP streams.
