better protect your network and devices.
4.3 Controller Mode
Controller Mode applies to the large scale network with mass devices. All devices can be centrally
configured and monitored via Omada Hardware Controller or Omada Software Controller.
Note:
Before the following configurations, make sure the switch can access the internet. When using
Omada Software/Hardware Controller, make sure the switch and the controller are in the same
subnet. Typically, the switch obtains IP address from the DHCP server. You can check the
switch’s IP address on the DHCP server.

Omada Hardware Controller (OC200/OC300) is a good alternative if you have no spare PC to keep
running Omada Software Controller in the network. It needs to be purchased additionally. Follow the
