SSH into UniFi APs, switches and gateways — the part the controller hides.

Installed with SmartCom Revisited 1.6.1 — there is nothing to download.
Open the button panel and it is there.

Each one imports on its own, so a bundle this size never arrives as a single wall of buttons. Hide
the sets you do not need, or
name
the ones a connection uses and the panel shows only those.
They arrive pre-tagged, so you do not have to name them at all:
tag

and the matching sets appear on it.

Read it before you run it
These commands were written from Ubiquiti's documented syntax and checked
for structure — not run against live Ubiquiti UniFi hardware. Every button shows
its full script in the app before you press it. For anything destructive, read that script
and try it in a lab first.
