Hardware -------- MediaTek MT7621AT 16M SPI-NOR Macronix MX25L12835FMI Microchip PD69104B1 4-Channel PoE-PSE controller TI TPS2373 PoE-PD controller PoE-Controller -------------- By default, the PoE outputs do not work with OpenWrt. To make them output power, install the "poemgr" package from the packages feed. This package can control the PD69104B1 PSE controller. Installation ------------ 1. Connect to the booted device at 192.168.1.20 using username/password "ubnt" via SSH. 2. Add the uboot-envtools configuration file /etc/fw_env.config with the following content $ echo "/dev/mtd1 0x0 0x1000 0x10000 1" > /etc/fw_env.config 3. Update the bootloader environment. $ fw_setenv boot_openwrt "fdt addr \$(fdtcontroladdr); fdt rm /signature; bootubnt" $ fw_setenv bootcmd "run boot_openwrt" 4. Transfer the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to the device using SCP. 5. Check the mtd partition number for bs / kernel0 / kernel1 $ cat /proc/mtd 6. Set the bootselect flag to boot from kernel0 $ dd if=/dev/zero bs=1 count=1 of=/dev/mtdblock4 7. Write the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to both kernel0 as well as kernel1 $ dd if=openwrt.bin of=/dev/mtdblock6 $ dd if=openwrt.bin of=/dev/mtdblock7 8. Reboot the device. It should boot into OpenWrt. Restore to UniFi ---------------- To restore the vendor firmware, follow the Ubiquiti UniFi TFTP recovery guide for access points. The process is the same for the Flex switch.

OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned.
Sunshine!
Development
To build your own firmware you need a GNU/Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack of a case sensitive file system.
Requirements
You need the following tools to compile OpenWrt, the package names vary between distributions. A complete list with distribution specific packages is found in the Build System Setup documentation.
binutils bzip2 diff find flex gawk gcc-6+ getopt grep install libc-dev libz-dev
make4.1+ perl python3.6+ rsync subversion unzip which
Quickstart
-
Run
./scripts/feeds update -a
to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default -
Run
./scripts/feeds install -a
to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/ -
Run
make menuconfig
to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages. -
Run
make
to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the GNU/Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system.
Related Repositories
The main repository uses multiple sub-repositories to manage packages of
different categories. All packages are installed via the OpenWrt package
manager called opkg
. If you're looking to develop the web interface or port
packages to OpenWrt, please find the fitting repository below.
