Unifi controller ports pfsense
-
Good afternoon,
I have a vm running unifi controller behind my pfsense firewall. I have added the NAT rules for port forwarding like I had on my TP-link router before I replaced it with the pfsense firewall. It seems like I am missing something as my unifi controller can not talk to the cloud access part so i can remotely manage my APs. Any suggestions of what i'm missing?
I have port forwarded:
3478(UDP)
8080, 8443, 8880, 8843, 6789, and 8883 all TCPThanks for your time.

What are you trying to do exactly? You do not need to port forward anything for cloud access to your UC

I'm trying to make it to where my controller at site A can reach the internet through cloud access so APs at Site B and C can talk back to Site As controller. This worked on my router before I swapped it out with pfsense. I want to use pfsense so I am trying to see what I am missing.

That is not cloud access that is L3 adoption..

But cloud access is required if you want to remotely manage your controller through unifi.ubnt.com

Yes true but that has ZERO do with AP talking to your controller via L3 adoption.
Once your controller at site A has adopted the AP at remote sites, then you could enable control cloud and remotely mange it.
