I recently bought a CloudKey+ from Ubiquiti and for several days, it wasn't loading or appearing to work. So, I finally SSH'ed into it with the default username/password: root/ubnt. I got the IP from the display port and once there, I issued ifconfig eth0.
root@UniFi-CloudKey-Gen2-Plus:~# ifconfig eth0 eth0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 192.168.1.119 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255 inet6 2600:1700:1102:27d0:7a45:58ff:fef5:6e47 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x0<global> inet6 fe80::7a45:58ff:fef5:6e47 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link> inet6 2600:1700:1102:27d0::3e9 prefixlen 128 scopeid 0x0<global> ether 78:45:58:f5:6e:47 txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 14809 bytes 10448243 (9.9 MiB) RX errors 0 dropped 428 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 4785 bytes 1652104 (1.5 MiB) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 That is a lot of IPv6 networking which I don't use at home. So I issued 3 more commands to disable IPv6 and verify: root@UniFi-CloudKey-Gen2-Plus:~# sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1 net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1 root@UniFi-CloudKey-Gen2-Plus:~# sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6=1 net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = 1 root@UniFi-CloudKey-Gen2-Plus:~# ifconfig eth0 eth0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 192.168.1.119 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255 ether 78:45:58:f5:6e:47 txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 21280 bytes 11006272 (10.4 MiB) RX errors 0 dropped 787 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 10731 bytes 8916935 (8.5 MiB) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 Once I did that, everything worked immediately. Just a quick tip for you if you are having issues. Good luck! |
