Unifi Controller Administration

To administrate Unifi device you need the Unifi Controller appliance. If you have some Unifi device the controller can be embedded inside but for switch or other unifi simple device you will need to have a separate Unifi controller.

You can dockerize it or make it run on LXC for Proxmox.
