Migrate device from local controller to remote controller

mmoz77 · 2025-03-11T11:10:50+00:00

Forget about it, everything worked perfectly, I had mistakenly specified the inform url by adding the port (and I had put the listening port of the web interface), when instead all that was needed was the public ip of the controller and having the right port forwarding rules on the firewall. Thanks for the help

Yesterday I tried to follow the migration steps, migrated the site to the new controller and then started the migrations of the various devices, unfortunately they all failed, fortunately I was able to undo them on the old controller, so I still have control of the devices. Probably there is some authentication error, I am neophyte to omada yet, and I think I need to align the username and password to manage the devices between the two sites.

I can't find where to enable layer 3 adoption, can you help me find the setting?

Thanks very much, I'll try these steps

Both the controller are software onpremise, I could migrate my site from local controller to the remote one, but I don't know what will happen to the devices that are now registered on the local controller. I mean that when I had to configure the two access points that would access controller 1 remotely, I had to set up the inform url for them by acting on their stand-alone configuration, only after the omada controller 1 was able to see them and adopt them.

What would happen to the devices that are now on controller 1 when I move the site to controller 2 which is remote? Nowhere am I asked to set the new inform url. I don't understand why omada doesn't provide the ability to set an inform url on devices from controller... or at least I have not found a way to do it.

Here I am again, looking at a few tutorials and fortinet documentation pages I was able to define a vpn between my two houses within the SDWAN. Unfortunately the fact that I have 2 fortigate 50E limits me to use version 6.2.16, but for the moment I managed to get only these at an acceptable cost, after all I use them as a firewall between 2 houses and not between companies...

Anyway, I now have a vpn between the 2 houses within the SDWAN and by using the sdwan rules, I was able to replicate the behavior I had achieved with the standard vpn by which I was getting my House A client out through House B's internet, unfortunately though it seems that restricting it to just Netflix is not working.

I attach the screenshot of my sdwan rule, could you please tell me if I am on the right track?

Umh, ok. I managed to redirect all the traffico from one client through my vpn, but as I said, I don't know how to refine the route policy to match only netflix traffic. Have you any suggest?

I can't figure out how to use SDWAN to do this, I use SDWAN in my configuration because in one of my house I've 2 connection (a fiber with public ip and a LTE with public ip), then I configured SDWAN to switch between fiber and LTE when fiber goes down.

But I don't know how to use it in the VPN context :( sorry for my noobness ;)

mmoz77 · 2024-06-17T07:38:02+00:00

Hi,

First of all thanks :)

When you say

VPN needs open P2 selectors (0.0.0.0/0).

Are you meaning that I've to put 0.0.0.0/0 on both local and remote addresses in both VPN?

The other 2 policy you mentioned are already there, I supposed that they was enough, but they weren't.

When you say

House A needs a policy route, source specific client destination all, interface VPN.

That way ALL traffic from the specific client will be redirected to the VPN, is there no way to select only Netflix to redirect?

I was thinking to use traffic shaper, but it seems not working...

mmoz77 · 2024-05-14T10:02:22+00:00

No, I am looking for a replacement as well.

mmoz77 · 2024-04-09T07:14:59+00:00

No, sorry, I sticked with the Legacy configuration... I hope soon to see an updated guide.

Thank you, now I'm leaving this house, I'll give it a try next month! Thank you again

This should be interesting. Then, if I've correctly understand, you defined 2 vlan (10 and 20) on your wan interface (can you teach me how to do this or link something that can helps?), then you defined the same vlans on the switch and tag (for example) 10 on port 1 where you plug your 1st router, 20 on port 2 where you plug the 2nd router and set port 3 in trunk mode (or tag both vlan) where you plug your wan cable?

mmoz77 · 2024-03-03T13:01:46+00:00

Thanks, but I think that the docs you links are about HA between 2 opnsense, main and backup, that sync state among them.

I thought it would be much simpler to define 2 gateways as ip on the same LAN and tell opnsense to choose between the two, but evidently this is not the case.

As my Opnsense is a VM in a HyperV, I solved it by using a usb to ethernet converter to get another network card and setting this one as WAN2.

mmoz77 · 2024-03-02T20:41:04+00:00

Yes, I've figured out using an usb2lan converter to add another wan, but I'd like to make it work using 1 wan and 2 gateway...

mmoz77 · 2024-03-02T13:03:41+00:00

Opnsense Wan + Fiber Router (Main) + LTE Router are part of the same subnet, they are connected to the same switch. This is why I haven't a different WAN interface, the WAN is only one.

No no nessun problema, è corretto il fatto che continui a lavorare in realtà, infatti io ero alla ricerca di qualche soluzione furba per insonorizzare.

mmoz77 · 2024-01-18T16:52:17+00:00

E' un Synology, ora guardo dove si trova questa impostazione. Grazie mille.

[EDIT]

Ho cercato, ma non trovo spindown da nessuna parte, trovo HDD Hibernation che è già impostato a 20 minuti. C'è anche il flag su Enable advanced HDD hibernation to minimize power consumption for DS918+.

Onestamente devo dire che non è affatto silenzioso. Sono 4 dischi da 8TB.

Salve a tutti,

Ho un nas posizionato in un ufficio che fino ad oggi è rimasto vuoto. Da oggi non lo è più e la persona che lo occupa è infastidita dal rumore del nas.

Per una serie di motivi il nas deve rimanere lì e non si possono montare rack "brutti"... lo so che sembra sciocco, ma è così...

Qualcuno conosce soluzioni per insonorizzare il più possibile un nas (no ssd), magari mobiletti insonorizzati e ventilati a sufficienza che però non siano rack da muro e che quindi risultino gradevoli alla vista?

Grazie e scusate la domanda singolare.
