Ubiquiti Launches UniFi OS Server for Self-Hosting

What do you like to use the UniFi controller container for?

I've tried hosting the same container before but it never seemed to properly "marry" to my UniFi AP, or it would forget the AP the next day, etc. For now I just use the iOS app which is sufficient to update the AP firmware occasionally, but I wish I could get all the insights of the controller.

I had that problem before. You can fix that by SSH'ing into your AP and setting the inform IP to point to your controller. Just make sure the IP address of the host that's running the controller container is static.
