Introduction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Managing TP-Link EAP devices becomes a breeze when you have a centralized controller. In this guide, we’ll walk through the steps to set up an Omada Controller on a Raspberry Pi 4 using Docker. This is an excellent solution for both home and small business networks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prerequisites<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • Raspberry Pi 4 with 4GB RAM<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Docker installed on the Raspberry Pi<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • SSH access to the Raspberry Pi<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Step-by-Step Guide<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Step 1: SSH into Your Raspberry Pi<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    First, connect to your Raspberry Pi using SSH. This will allow you to execute commands remotely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Step 2: Pull the Omada Controller Docker Image<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Run the following command to pull the latest Omada Controller Docker image:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    docker pull mbentley\/omada-controller:latest<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
    Step 3: Create Data Directories<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    Create directories to store Omada Controller’s data and work files:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    mkdir -p \/opt\/tplink\/OmadaController\/data\nmkdir -p \/opt\/tplink\/OmadaController\/work<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
    Step 4: Run the Omada Controller Container<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    Execute the following command to run the Omada Controller container:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    docker run -d \\\n  --name omada-controller \\\n  --restart unless-stopped \\\n  -e TZ='Europe\/Copenhagen' \\\n  -e SMALL_FILES=false \\\n  -p 8088:8088 \\\n  -p 8043:8043 \\\n  -p 27001:27001\/udp \\\n  -p 27002:27002 \\\n  -p 29810:29810\/udp \\\n  -p 29811:29811 \\\n  -p 29812:29812 \\\n  -p 29813:29813 \\\n  -v \/opt\/tplink\/OmadaController\/data:\/opt\/tplink\/EAPController\/data \\\n  -v \/opt\/tplink\/OmadaController\/work:\/opt\/tplink\/EAPController\/work \\\n  mbentley\/omada-controller:latest<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
    Step 5: Access the Omada Controller<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    Finally, open a web browser and navigate to https:\/\/<Raspberry_Pi_IP>:8043<\/code>. Follow the setup wizard to complete the installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    Note<\/strong>: Replace <Raspberry_Pi_IP><\/code> with the actual IP address of your Raspberry Pi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    You’ve successfully set up an Omada Controller on your Raspberry Pi 4 using Docker. This will help you manage your TP-Link EAP devices efficiently. If you have any questions or run into issues, feel free to reach out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
