Since 99.9% of linux systems use root as their user, we’re going to change this. You will be asked to enter your root password twice – make sure it is a STRONG password. Even though it is a long and complicated password, it is ALWAYS best practice to change it. Now that we’re in, we want to change that root password. Now the fun begins, open a ssh session (I prefer putty) and login into your server. This will be needed in the future when we create the secure SSL certificate for the UniFi Controller, as well as for the Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate. Since you now know your IP address, you should log into your DNS hosting provider or DNS server and create a new A record that points the hostname that you created in Step 1 to the IP address of your server.

Copy the IP as next we’re going to create a domain registration for this server. Once your server is ‘Running’ you’ll be shown the server IP and root password. I always properly name these so I don’t forget what they are. The final step is to give your server a host name. Since this is a production system, having a backup is always a great idea. In the additional features section, auto backups is an option I would pick. Now, for the server size, if you’re following along in Vultr or Digital Ocean, the $5 a month server is good enough BUT if you’re hosting more than 20 (in my opinion) sites, I would bump this up to the $20 plan.
#UBNT INSTALL HTTPS CERTIFICATE 32 BIT#
You will have issues if a 32 bit option is available and you pick that.
#UBNT INSTALL HTTPS CERTIFICATE 64 BIT#
For the server type, PLEASE make sure you select 64 bit (圆4). Pick whichever data center you want – I always pick what is closest to me or the client I’m creating this for. When you get the ‘Deploy New Instance’ screen, make sure ‘Cloud Compute’ is selected. This will bring you to the new server setup page. Click the blue circled ‘+’ symbol in the upper right. Log into Vultr and get to the main dashboard (it should say ‘Products’).

In the cloud or even local on your own network.

There are many ways to run a multisite controller of Unifi. If something does not work, please email us*** ***Note: this guide was created on January 24th 2021.
