Not comfortable using Cambium’s cloud-based controller? Not a problem!

The cnMaestro On-Premises is a standalone version of the cnMaestro Cloud application that can be installed on your own servers, for FREE!

The features of the cnMaestro On-Premises are nearly identical to the Cloud version, now neatly wrapped up in a compact, single package that can execute on a virtual machine. 

What’s the difference between the two versions?

Deployment: The On-Premises version is released as an OVA (Open Virtualization Archive) file that needs to be installed on either VMware or VirtualBox. The cloud version is fully hosted and maintained by Cambium at cloud.cambiumnetworks.com

Device Connectivity: In the Cloud version, all devices access cloud.cambiumnetworks.com. In the On-Premises version, devices contact the local cnMaestro instance instead. This means they need to be configured to access the server before they can be managed. This can be accomplished on the device using the Device UI or SNMP. Alternatively, DHCP options can be configured to provide the cnMaestro URL when the device boots up.

Onboarding: In the Cloud, onboarding is done using either the device Serial Number (MSN) or through the Cambium ID (entered on the device). Use the Zero-touch onboarding option to make the deployment as painless as possible. Manage your entire network, from outdoor PtP/PtMP deployments all the way into your client’s premises/Wi-Fi deployments.

The number of devices that can be managed: Manage up to 4000 devices with the On-Premises software package controller option.

Please note: CnMaestro Cloud and CnMaestro on-site do not sync with each other as one controller. The Cloud and on-site is separate on its own.
