You can configure them independently of a controller by ssh but the config will be lost on a reboot or when the device next polls the controller
Edit: and apparently someone else has said you can use the app to configure them without a controller at all
Requiring a phone app, java app or Cloud Key to configure an AP isn't home lab ethos. That it looses config on reboot if you configure it by ssh is weird given you don't need a controller running once they are setup. They can be rebooted without a controller and still work fine.
Where did you find the command line documentation? I was never able to find anything.
I really love what Ubiquiti is trying to do, but I understand where you’re coming from. I ditched the EdgeRouter X because I just couldn’t do anything really advanced with it.
Openwrt works on the edgerouter-x. Dig it out of the closet and flash it.
I just built a DIY router on Alpine Linux. I don’t want to deal with an entire web UI and all that trash. I just want minimal Linux and some
ip6tables.
