Contributing

Pull Requests welcome! If you use this functionality to do new cool stuff to your UDM/P please send a PR and share it with the community!

General Tools

suricata

Run an updated version of suricata and apply custom rules that survive reboot

on-boot-script

Do this first. Enables init.d style scripts to run on every boot of your UDM. Includes examples to run wpa-supplicant/eap-proxy and/or ntop-ng on startup. Follow this readme.
It enables complete customization of your UDM/P and fills the gap that config.gateway.json left behind.

python

If you need python3 on your UDM, generally not recommended, can always use it in unifi-os container

VPN Servers / Clients

wireguard-go

Run a Wireguard client/server on your UDM/P. Utilizes wireguard-go, not linux kernel modules. The performance will take a hit due to that.

DNS Providers

Install a DNS server that functions as a network-wide ad and tracker blocker, and which can also securely proxy encrypted DNS requests to an upstream DNS provider. Begin by following the instructions to setup on-boot-script and dns-common. Then, follow the guides below to setup either Pi-Hole, NextDNS, or AdGuard Home.

dns-common

Base configuration for DNS server containers, both IPv4 and IPv6. Utilizes MacVLAN CNI plugins to completely isolate the network stack.

run-pihole

Run pihole on your UDM with podman.

nextdns

Run NextDNS on your UDM with podman.

AdguardHome

Run AdguardHome on your UDM with podman.

Cool projects you can use with this

multicast-relay

https://hub.docker.com/r/scyto/multicast-relay

This is a docker container that implements https://github.com/alsmith/multicast-relay to provide mDNS and SSDP on a unifi dream machine. It will likely work on any multi homed host.

ntopng

https://github.com/tusc/ntopng-udm

Much better network stats for your UDM/P! Install this docker container and create an on_boot script to make sure it's always running.

LetsEncrypt SSL Certs

https://github.com/kchristensen/udm-le

Provision and renew LetsEncrypt SSL certs from your UDM/P
