Performance Review - Ubiquiti Unifi Cloud Gateway Max (UCG-Max)

We have had a lot of questions about the performance of the Ubiquiti UCG-Max. These tests were run on a unit running Unifi OS 4.0.6 and Unifi Network 8.3.32 with both the WAN and LAN ports connected to 2.5GbE ports on a Ubiquiti USW-Pro-Max-16

The video covers a good number of areas, so hoepfully the chapters below will help as well.
