Put the full FQDN in the Host Name field, ignore the Alias field, put your router’s internal IP address in the IP Address field, then hit Apply.Įxample 2: If you’ve got access to the zone file for your domain (or you’re using a hosted DNS service like CloudFlare), you can create an A record for the EdgeRouter’s internal IP address like this:. UPDATE: As of EdgeOS 1.8, you can use the DNS host names feature wizard to handle this from the GUI.
You can test it from the EdgeOS CLI with: # /bin/ping Using a real certificate from a signing authority is what we’re looking to do here.Įxample 1: If you only have internal access to your router’s admin GUI (which is the default), and you’re using your EdgeRouter as a local DNS resolver/forwarder (which is common), you can map a hostname to the internal IP of your router with the following command from the EdgeRouter’s CLI: # set system static-host-mapping host-name inet 192.168.1.1 You could just create a self-signed certificate in the EdgeMAX CLI (I’ve done it), but browsers like Chrome still won’t like that. Depending on how you access your router’s admin interface, and you could do this in a number of ways, and I’ll include a few examples below using . Of course, you’ll need to use a hostname of your own choosing, as well as an actual domain name for which you have the ability to create certificates at a signing authority.

And with their EdgeRouter products, I recommend some network admin experience via the Linux command line (and at least a quick glance at their EdgeOS CLI Primer).īut if that’s you, and you’re sick of your browser warning you about an invalid certificate when you access your EdgeRouter admin interface, here’s the easy way to install your own custom SSL certificate on an EdgeRouter.īecause an SSL certificate checks the validity of the hostname and/or domain name of the web server you’re accessing, you need to set up a FDQN (fully qualified domain name) to point at your EdgeRouter. Ubiquiti makes business-classhardware only… so setting up most of their devices takes at least “pro-sumer†level ability. Note: I shamelessly copied the whole post Steve Jenkins his blog, due to it being offline and requiring a safe place for this info…Īs with all UBNT products, the EdgeMAX EdgeRouter products are not consumer-targeted devices.
