This is the second time I am watching your video and paused it to comment something interesting I haven't noticed. It is when you were creating LAN profiles, you have "Tagged Network" and "Untagged Network", so, 100 points to TP-Link to add this friendly setup in this area. Thank you for another excellent video, I am sure TP-Link is very happy with you..!!!
@@MactelecomNetworks This will force other vendors to improve their products for small and medium business market, you know, the competition is always welcome...!!
This video will get alot of TP Link Omada product sold. I have already bought 2 EAP225, oc200 controller, t1500g switch because of seeing how easy it is to use.. 😂😂
Excellent video, and seeing the simplicity of this encouraged me to buy some Omada EAP's. Cody is an engineer, public servant, and professional consultant! Batman had better watch out of this guy decides to fight crime as well!
I love the TPLink Omado SDN equipment. We were deploying Unifi for customers that were on a tight budget. But this run even less than Unifi and IMO I like it better. Great video!
Is it true that my current EAP 225's will not work with the SDN Controller if they are not "new" enough?? That sort of sucks. I feel like back in my Open Mesh days. I am accumulating a nice collection of EOL stuff.
@@gwkdad Not to rain on your parade, and not intending to be mean, but if you think you are getting good cameras with Ubiquiti, you are fooling yourself. :) Are they bad, probably not, but good, no.
Excellence Video. You make it so easy to config on the tp-link Omada. Was original plan to go for unify systems, but I need 10GBE READY for my QNAP NAS [production work]. I end up purchase the R605,OC200,EAP235-WALL,EAP245,PREORDER EAP620 AND TL-SG3428XMP. Same lots of money compare to Unify system.
Late joiner here. I came from the Fortigate/Fortinet realm which has a closed-first mentality, so this was definitely approaching things from a different angle for me. That said, I appreciate how you explained the difference between ACL's and Port Profiles (Software permissions vs VLAN Hardware "permissions") which helped things click into place for me with the Omada stuff. Also, I didn't know that you had to lock down the virtual gateway also. Excellent info, thanks so much!
I definitely appreciate this video sir. I'm currently in the process of switching over to TP Link Omada system from pfSense and a non Omada managed switch setup. I was struggling a little after using pfSense for quite some time and your video helped tremendously. Keep up the great work, it's much appreciated.
@@BabyDeer_Red4 for my home lab/home environment it’s been great. After using pfSense the firewall leaves a little to be desired, but it does the job. All traffic is allowed by default with the firewall if that helps you at all, where as I believe pfSense it’s all blocked by default.
this is the most clear setup video for omada. and i wanted to know more. btw i also using those devices. what firmware do you have on your oc200. because that GUI looks the latest one. and i had a problem with the vouchers on that. because all the user/client that connects on my guest portal that didn't use any voucher, can connect to facebook/messenger(this apps only) just by connecting to the open guest SSID.
Thanks for this video. If Ubiquiti sticks to it's cloud access compulsion in the current and upcoming controller versions, Omada is probably a very good alternative.
Hey thank you for posting this. It really did help me seperate up my network and configure those firewall rules. Really useful video so thank you so much for doing it.
Hi Cody thank you so much for this. I wanted to know, when you create the admin SSID what would the be drawbacks or advantages to assigning it to vlan 1 let’s say?
Great video. by the way, do you know what its CPU speed is? Does its 128MB DRAM affect performance for a small home office with about 30-40 devices? Thank you!!!
This is great thank you. If I have an wireless access point connected to a lan port and all vlans are sent through. How do you prevent a user from accessing the admin lan if they plug directly into the ethernet port where the AP is plugged? How to assign the rogue machine to the guest vlan unless they have specific mac address?
Thanks for the great video series. I’ve followed your video with the same equipment (except for the controller, running the software on a PC). I’ve been able to set up an ACL rule to allow VLAN to access the switch with success. However, when I try to create a similar rule to allow access to a home assistant server on another VLAN, it fails. Any ideas on where to start looking?
After reviewing the video again, I realize that there is no rule denying traffic originating from the management VLAN, so the ping requests are returned. In my case I had blocked all traffic between VLANs, and therefore my pings were not being returned. I've enabled bi-directional rules, and this solves the problem.
Is there a extra step to do here if you want your devices to be able to talk to the IoT network? For example I'm a home user and I want to be able to cast to my Chromecast or TV, etc. I'm about to purchase these items and set this up, using passthrough for my AT&T router. Thanks, great video! EDIT: Nevermind TP Link at the time of my message does not support mDNS over VLANs. That sucks
Great video, thanks! I was looking for a solution to remotely video my IP cameras but didn't want to use any of the software or built in Orbi VPN and did not want to setup port forwarding. If I set it up like yours with the multiple networks for Guest and IoT, can I just put this device in front of my Orbi and still achieve this? Trying to understand if I need to add additional hardware for the wireless networks or can I leverage my existing. Thanks Cody!
Thanks for the great video series. I’ve followed your video with the same equipment . I’ve been able to set up an ACL rules to allow and disallowed some VLANs . Can I see all user activities logs on controller ? like which user is reaching which site and how much bandwidth they consumes. I am looking for immediate support here. Thanks in advance!
As I understand it this switch has the first 4 ports PoE so why do you have port 1 plugged into the router (RL-605) in your diagram? Wouldn't that waste a PoE port? Wouldn't you want to plug it into port 8 of the switch? Thx.
Hi, just a question. How can you create one-way access from Staff VLAN to IoT VLAN meaning, Staff can access all IoT devices and maintain the session, but IoT can't initiate it. I have seen it done with Ubiquiti. Thanks for the vid!
Great video.. a channel worth subscribing to. Very thorough explanation. I’m going to upgrade my home network and I see a lot Unifi suggestions. There was one who told me about Omada and here I am and I guess I’m heading this route. Omada should get the same following as Unifi.
Great Video! How would you add a couple desktops, another switch and a NAS to this network setup? Also could you elaborate further why you set it up like this? As in why the TL-R605 in between the internet and the TL-SG2008P? If I were to need more ports, could I use a TL-SG2210P instead of TL-SG2008P? Say I wanted to add a printer to this network, where would that go? I`m guessing on the TL-SG2008P? What about adding a Pi-hole, that would plug in to the TL-R605 then? Thanks!
Hi Cody, great video / guide, really helped me a lot! One issue I experienced: The new network profile (All vlans) doesn't show up in my switch setting options. any suggestions how to solve this? Thank you very much!
Thanks for the video, being struggling with chromecast, I saw some people suggesting that solution is mDNS but is not develop in Omada. How to allow the chromecast to recieved request from secured VLAN to IOT VLAN?
What is the benefit or the reason for the allow Staff to Switch rule? Also, I would think a Staff to IoT rule is needed to allow for in home access/control to those devices?
I could really use some speed tests for the router and range/speed tests for the AP. I'd also love to see how the TL-ER7206 router and the TL-SG2210P switch and the same EAP245 performs in comparison to this network in terms of speed and throughput. Unfortunately it looks like you got the lower end of the hardware spectrum from TP-Link.
Thanks for the vidoe, helped so much, just a question, do I need external firewall to protect my LAN from WAN attacks? cause i do not see configure rules for WAN to LAN. Thanks
Hi Great video thanks , i have the same setup, do you think will be a solution for Airplay to discover between Vlans. i'm not able to use the airplay option unless i'm in the same subnet.
Great video!! I am having an issue where my Apple TV (ATV is in the IoT Vlan) cannot access my NAS (NAS is in the default Vlan) to stream movies to my TV unless I disable the ACL rule (block IoT to Vlans) . I tried the last part in the video (allow staff access to switch) using the IoT network but no joy. Any ideas?
Perhaps you're the person to ask, I just got a tplink router and oc200 controller and am not having much luck with port forwarding to a server for nginx proxy manager, I am able to forward directly to the default port of nginx but getting anything to route for nginx is a no-go. I suspect this may be a double nat issue...or lack thereof. Is there a way to 'enable' nat loopback in the oc200 controller?
Hi, Thanks for the demo. Question; Can I remove the TP Link switch and have the same outputs? I mean, I would like to connect the EAPs to the router directly. Does it work? thanks
You would need to use a PoE adapter. I know the single-pack adapters come with them, but I'm not sure about a multi-pack. I'm not sure if that particular router provides PoE. If not, that's probably why a switch (with PoE) was used.
excellent video! is there any way to connect two routers RL-605 via VPN using only one Omada Controller? The two RL605 are in two separate houses and the Controller is located in one house.

I setup the inter vlan blocking rules according to your video. I configured the main network vlan1 to 192.168.10.0 subnet. Then I created 2 tagged LANS such as VLAN32 (192.168.32.0) and VLAN40 (192.168.40.0). How do I get the main network VLAN1 to ping the tagged VLANS gateway IP from the main network? Thank you
Great video and explanation, makes it look much easier and simpler. Question with using the Controller though, will having it override any settings that may be configured directly on each of the devices? Particularly the R605. If I've used it and configured based on my needs without the Controller, would adding the Controller in the mix and configuring it through SDN take over standalone configs? Thanks!
Hi Cody, I have the OC200 hardware controller setup with multiple EAP's and the TP link 8 port switch at my home, and it's all working fine. I have two other properties in different towns where I am going to setup sites for in the Omada software controller and those places will all have the TP link EAP's along with the same switch. So my question is, would I need to have the OC200 hardware controller setup at each property? I don't want to have a dedicated computer running but also not sure if just the one OC200 hardware controller I'm using at my home is fine.
Any idea on how to set up multiple public static IPs within Omada? We can get a block of static IPs from our ISP and want to set one of these IPs for our security camera systems

I have couple of vlan 20,30,40 and a WiFi printer is connect to vlan 50 (and SSID) How do I configure to ensure printer is accessible from all other vlan/SSID
Hi, can the Omada system works without any Jetwstream switch (just very basic unmanaged switch)? Actually, I just need 3 AP and the ER605 has enough LAN port for me (1 Port for WAN, 1 port for the Controller OC200). Thanks you so much for your contribution.
I have the ER7206 router, SG2210P switch, and 4 EAP610 APs, 2 upstairs and two down. With just a single SSID based on my LAN, signal strength is great on all APs. When I setup a VLAN for wired and wireless with a separate SSID, I get no internet. Ideas?
If I don't have a TP-link switch, but Trendnet that isn't manageable, would I still be able to separate the traffic to specifc devices. for instance, AP and Multimedia switch?
Thank you for this video :) . One problem I have is that I am unable to block access to the management webpage of my ER7212PC Omada device using a Switch ACL. I have one VLAN for the internal network and a second VLAN for VPN users. I want to prevent the second VLAN (VPN users) from accessing the Omada web login page. The ACL blocks access to the web login page for the NAS on that VLAN, but not the login page for the Omada. Any suggestions? :)
enjoy the demo, how can you configure Staff can access IoT, but not IoT to staff, I try to add a switch rule Staff Permit IoT , that is highest priority, but does not work. help!
@@ipsdon Thanks for the reply. It is defnitely not secure. I have tried enabling bi-directional, but it gives the IoT full access to the other VLAN without any restriction (unless I specify a destination host which is a pain and impractical).
Hi sir, What if I have a pfSense as the DHCP server? A TP-Link 2600G-52TS switch and Unifi UAP-AC access point? My problem is that my UAP has VLAN30(Officenetwork) and VLAN40(Guestnetwork). How can I setup the switchport for the TP-Link? Thanks!

Hi, We are a non-profit body and so far our setup is using cheap TP Link routers configured as access points and running a raspberry pi with FreeRadius. I am thinking of using OMADA SDN controller to replace the raspberry pi (due to several reasons). With the cheap (but with WiFi 6) routers, will I be able to use the OMADA SDN controller as Radius server? Of course the routers doesn't have accounting port enabled, only port 1812. Will I be able to use the captive portal login too (for the user to change their password)? My questions above might not sound professional for networking guys. I am not one. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Hi Cody Should I get a different result if I log into my Omada controller on my computer wirelessly or over Ethernet? When I log in wirelessly, it will show my AP's as adopting failed.....but when I plug into ethernet it will show that all my AP's have adopted and connected. Is this normal?
3 years later and this is still solid knowledge. Just starting out with tplink and learning all I can . This is GOLD

hi mac, great video but I've got some difficulties. into the tab WN-->Switch Set I've got "No entry in the table" so I can't select the ports... what I miss up?
Thanks for the video, used it to setup my network, but I am having a hard time changing the client IP address, in the config for use fixed IP Address there is this message,"The feature is available only when the gateway acts as the DHCP server" I have searched for hours to find a how to get it to work, do you have any ideas how to get it to work?
Excellent ! Congratulations.
Thank you so much bro...
No problem
@@MactelecomNetworks bro is it possible to use Tp-Link TL-ANT2410MO Antenna with Tp-link EAP225? Thank you
Sir. What is the setup for big network. Like 2000 user and 220 accesspoint. What kind of tp link device i should take for this big network?
FANTATIC VIDEO!
Can I use an unmanaged switch for this
I have couple of vlan 20,30,40 and a WiFi printer is connect to vlan 50 (and SSID) How do I configure to ensure printer is accessible from all other vlan/SSID
People should know that TP-Link will not ship out a replacement device under warranty unless you pay to ship the defective device to them first.
What is the difference between having the OC200 or having the software on a computer? Thanks.
I have the same question as well. I bought the router but I'm not sure if I need the controller
All the devices have an interface via their IP address. Not sure what the OC200 offers that's so different.
Hi, can the Omada system works without any Jetwstream switch (just very basic unmanaged switch)? Actually, I just need 3 AP and the ER605 has enough LAN port for me (1 Port for WAN, 1 port for the Controller OC200). Thanks you so much for your contribution.
I have the ER7206 router, SG2210P switch, and 4 EAP610 APs, 2 upstairs and two down. With just a single SSID based on my LAN, signal strength is great on all APs. When I setup a VLAN for wired and wireless with a separate SSID, I get no internet. Ideas?
will the OC200 recognize the TL-SG105PE?
Can I use CISCO 140ac as WAP in all Tplink system, TP link jetstream and Omada controller?
If I don't have a TP-link switch, but Trendnet that isn't manageable, would I still be able to separate the traffic to specifc devices. for instance, AP and Multimedia switch?
Can the rl605 be used as a firegaurd client. Client to main site (not sit to site)?
Thank you for this video :) . One problem I have is that I am unable to block access to the management webpage of my ER7212PC Omada device using a Switch ACL.
I have one VLAN for the internal network and a second VLAN for VPN users. I want to prevent the second VLAN (VPN users) from accessing the Omada web login page.
The ACL blocks access to the web login page for the NAS on that VLAN, but not the login page for the Omada.
Any suggestions? :)
Can you use a switch that has the omada SDN integrated instead of the controller?
So would tplink D9 mesh? Do all tplink smart managed switches work with omada?
enjoy the demo, how can you configure Staff can access IoT, but not IoT to staff, I try to add a switch rule Staff Permit IoT , that is highest priority, but does not work. help!
Hi, were you able to resolve this? I am having the same problem
@@mymotoeabad4168 TP is not as functional as UDM, u have to configure bi-directional access in most circumstances, not as secured.
@@ipsdon Thanks for the reply. It is defnitely not secure. I have tried enabling bi-directional, but it gives the IoT full access to the other VLAN without any restriction (unless I specify a destination host which is a pain and impractical).
Does the Omada controller support Link aggregation?
I thought the ERT 605 took care of everything..............but you must have a controller as well?
You can use the router standalone. But you can also have the controller and use it as a SDN
I chatted with TP-Link and got an answer to my question.
How stable is the TP-Link network? How would you compare to similar Unifi setup in terms of stability and WIFI strength/speed?
I think TP-link still has a way to come with their interface but overall it seems pretty stable
Great video! Thank U!!
Hi sir, What if I have a pfSense as the DHCP server? A TP-Link 2600G-52TS switch and Unifi UAP-AC access point? My problem is that my UAP has VLAN30(Officenetwork) and VLAN40(Guestnetwork). How can I setup the switchport for the TP-Link? Thanks!
Hi you would have to tag the ports with the vlans you want. For your uplink you would want to out all the vlans as a trunk
would you recommend this over ubiquiti? I already have great experience with TP link consumer hardware which I installed at multiple homes. Now I want to install a more professional network at my parents business which contains employees and guest and camera's.
I still love unifi but this is another great option with a cheaper price point
Hi,
We are a non-profit body and so far our setup is using cheap TP Link routers configured as access points and running a raspberry pi with FreeRadius.
I am thinking of using OMADA SDN controller to replace the raspberry pi (due to several reasons). With the cheap (but with WiFi 6) routers, will I be able to use the OMADA SDN controller as Radius server? Of course the routers doesn't have accounting port enabled, only port 1812. Will I be able to use the captive portal login too (for the user to change their password)?
My questions above might not sound professional for networking guys. I am not one. Correct me if I'm wrong.
what can you do without the gateway device?
Hi Cody Should I get a different result if I log into my Omada controller on my computer wirelessly or over Ethernet? When I log in wirelessly, it will show my AP's as adopting failed.....but when I plug into ethernet it will show that all my AP's have adopted and connected.
Is this normal?
is it possible without the switch?
The Gateway Information will only show if you turn on Automatic speed testing.
Isn’t there an option to use a software based controller, if I don’t want to go the hardware controller way?
