Recommendations
When setting up the UniFi LED lighting system, we recommend the following:
- Disable IGMP snooping on every VLAN utilizing UniFi LED products.
- Pair each UDIM unit with no more than 128 ULED units.
- Separate ULED installations by VLAN, with subnet masks of /25, or 255.255.255.128.
- For UDIM/ULED AC variants, enable wireless AP multicasting.
