Flashing
NOTE: During configuration or flashing a device, the only things that should be hooked to the device is the computer and power. |
Flashing OpenWrt
The development branch can contain experimental code that is under active development and should not be used for production environments. Snapshot images may support additional hardware; however, it is experimental, considered unstable, and sometimes won't compile. |
Prebuilt snapshot images do not come with any web interface or GUI. You will need to be comfortable using a command line and remote shell to install one yourself → How to install LuCI |
This device is NOT RECOMMENDED for future use with OpenWrt due to low flash/ram.
DO NOT BUY DEVICES WITH 8MB FLASH / 64MB RAM if you intend to flash an up-to-date and secure OpenWrt version onto it! See 8/64 warning for details. This device does not have sufficient resources (flash and/or RAM) to provide secure and reliable operation. This means that you will not be able to install many packages, and that you might experience crashes due to OOM situations more or less often. See OpenWrt on 8/64 devices what you can do now. |

The Ubiquiti ToughSwitch 8XP is a 8-port PoE Gigabit switch with a single Fast-Ethernet management port. It supports both 24V passive PoE and 48V 802.11af/at PoE out on all eight ports. By default the single Fast-Ethernet port labeled "MGMT" is configured as the WAN port. Thus access to the device is only possible via the eight switch ports. Installation of the firware is possible either via serial + tftpboot or the factory firmware update function via webinterface. Serial: 3v3 115200 8n1 The serial header is located in the lower left corner of the switches PCB: | | | | o | o RX | o TX | o GND | |
