EdgeRouter Lite Configuration

[Chip]

Just wondering if your EdgeRouter Lite Configuration article from 2013 is still applicable?

Thanks

Welcome Chip.

Config files generated from older-generation firmware shouldn't necessarily damage anything, but you probably want to lean towards finding something exported from a v. 1.8 or 1.9 generation firmware if possible. I say that because at least a couple new config sections and some light reworkings of others have taken place since that SNB article, so using one of those config files may cause settings adoption conflicts and/or corruption -- most likely not, but I always like to err on the side of safety.

You should be able to find examples on UBNT's forums. I'll also scrounge their site shortly and link to anything I find.

There is better more recent info to be found elsewhere. This is a good series from earlier this year:
http://www.forshee.me/2016/03/01/ubiquiti-edgerouter-lite-setup-part-1-the-basics.html

I highly recommend using the wizards that are now in the newer firmware to do your initial config, then work from there

Thanks, I have read the Forshee postings before but still am more than a little intimidated by the CLI.
