# 1. make sure the AP is running the same firmware as the controller. If it is not, see this guide: Upgrading UniFi firmware via SSH.
# 2. make sure the AP is in factory default state
# if it's not, do
# syswrapper.sh restore-default
# 3. ssh into the device and type
mca-cli
# the CLI interface:
set-inform http://ip-of-controller:8080/inform
# 4. after issuing the set-inform, the UniFi device will show up for adoption. Once you click adopt the device will appear to go offline.
# 5. once the device goes offline, issue the set-inform command again. This will permanently save the inform address, and you'll see the device will start provisioning.
So i tried to connect to controller . Both controller and switch can ping each other.but switch wont show under discovery.![]()
pyro_ is right. You need the beta controller software, not the most current on their website. I fought the same issue for about a day. FWIW, I am running controller version V5.4.6.Make sure you are using the right min version of the controller. You might have to still use a beta version for it to work. Verify on the ubnt forums what version you need to have installed
Thanks.That solved my issue..Make sure you are using the right min version of the controller. You might have to still use a beta version for it to work. Verify on the ubnt forums what version you need to have installed
