A collection of things to enhance the capabilities of your Unifi Dream Machine, Dream Machine Pro or UXG-Pro.

Custom Kernel

If you want to do a custom kernel with wireguard support, multicast, multipath routing that is now a possiblity. Please see the repo and please use at your own risk. This a much larger change than anything in this repo.

udm-kernel-tools

Custom Podman Builds for UDM-SE

https://github.com/unifi-utilities/unifios-utilities/actions

Extract the zip to the root of your device! Look at the assets on the Podman workflow.

General Tools

on-boot-script

Do this first. Enables init.d style scripts to run on every boot of your UDM. Includes examples to run wpa-supplicant/eap-proxy and/or ntop-ng on startup. Follow this readme.

It enables complete customization of your UDM/P and fills the gap that config.gateway.json left behind.

podman-update

Updates Podman, conmon, and runc to a recent version. This allows docker-compose usage as well.

container-common

Apply this after on-boot-script. Updates container defaults to maintain stable disk usage footprint of custom containers. Prevents logs filling up UDM storage full.

python

If you need python3 on your UDM, generally not recommended, can always use it in unifi-os container.

UDM Persistent SSH Keys Script

https://github.com/fire1ce/UDM-Persistent-SSH-Keys

Script to persist ssh keys after reboot or firmware update.

VPN Servers / Clients

Name	URL	Description
wireguard-go		Run a Wireguard client/server
WireGuard kernel module	https://github.com/tusc/wireguard-kmod	Uses a prebuilt linux kernel module, without the need to move to a custom kernel.

split-vpn	https://github.com/peacey/split-vpn	A split tunnel VPN script for the UDM with policy based routing. This helper script can be used on your UDM to route select VLANs, clients, or even domains through a VPN connection. It supports OpenVPN, WireGuard, and OpenConnect (Cisco AnyConnect) clients running directly on your UDM, and external VPN clients running on other servers on your network.

DNS Providers

Install a DNS server that functions as a network-wide ad and tracker blocker, and which can also securely proxy encrypted DNS requests to an upstream DNS provider. Begin by following the instructions to setup on-boot-script and dns-common. Then, follow the guides below to setup either Pi-Hole, NextDNS, or AdGuard Home.

dns-common

Base configuration for DNS server containers, both IPv4 and IPv6. Utilizes MacVLAN CNI plugins to completely isolate the network stack.

nextdns

Run NextDNS on your UDM with podman.

run-pihole

PiHole w/ DoH Image. Run Pi-hole on your UDM with podman. Also contains custom image for Pi-hole with cloudflared.

PiHole with DoTe

Designed by: https://github.com/chrisstaite/DoTe/

Alternative to mine which uses DoTe

AdguardHome

Run AdguardHome on your UDM with podman.

Cloudflare DDNS

Update your cloudflare domains from your UDM with podman.
