Objective

This guide explains the changes of Omada Controller from v5 to v6.

Requirements

• Omada Controller

Introduction

The objective of this document is to provide with a comprehensive, section-by-section mapping between Omada Controller version 5.x and the re-architected 6.0 user interface.

Release 6.0 introduces a hierarchical re-organization of all monitoring, configuration and reporting functions. Numerous legacy pages have been relocated, consolidated or renamed to improve navigational consistency and to align device-centric data with the devices themselves. Consequently, familiar menu paths from earlier versions may no longer resolve the expected location.

The guidance that follows presents every legacy module, sub-module and widget in its original order, accompanied by the precise navigation path required to access the equivalent capability in version 6.0. Use this reference to accelerate the transition to 6.0 and to ensure continuity of operational tasks.

Configuration

1. Home

The former “Home” page no longer exists as a top-level module.

• All former Home widgets are now located inside Dashboard > Topology.
• When users log in, they land on Dashboard-Overview; the Topology tab delivers the old Home experience.

2. Dashboard

The legacy custom-widget designer has been removed. You can customize the chart in Insights > Reports
The new Dashboard is divided into four fixed tabs:

• Overview – site-wide KPIs

• Topology – network map, device status and alarms (inherits Home)

• Clients – summary of online/offline/blocked clients

• Traffic – site-level traffic statistics

3. Device Details

Formerly the details page was only a drawer that contained full monitoring and configuration.
In 6.0:

• Clicking a device row opens a drawer that shows basic properties and quick actions (Upgrade, Move, etc.).Inside the drawer, press “Manage Device” to open the full-detail page where the complete config lives.

• You can continue to click “Add” (top-right) on any full page to open additional devices; they appear as side-by-side tabs. And the Log and Tools tabs have been added to troubleshooting of individual devices.

3.1 Gateway

• Drawer view – two modules only: Overview (basic info) and Port (WAN port list).

• Full page – all legacy monitoring plus complete configuration (routing, VPN, DNS, etc.).

3.2 Switch

• Drawer view – basic info, up-/down-link devices, quick actions.

• Full page – full port table, PoE, VLAN, STP, LAG, routing, etc.

3.3 AP

• Drawer view – basic info, uplink device, quick actions.

• Full page – radios, SSIDs, mesh, client history, RF statistics, advanced radio profiles.

3.4 OLT

• Drawer view – OLT base info, ONU count, quick actions.

• Full page – PON ports, DDM, ONUs list, VLAN, multicast, QoS.

3.5 Stack

• Drawer view – list of members, base info, up-/down-links, quick actions.

• Full page – stack topology, port statistics, VLAN, STP, LAG, routing per member.
