I understand what you’re saying … yes, people (like myself)
complaining about something free … totally understand that part.
But many times when a vendor brings in something major and new, it
often causes problems with code on routers/switches that has worked
perfectly fine for a long time. To bring DPI into any router involves
a significant amount of codebase change very low on the IP stack .. a
lot can go wrong…

I had/have that concern as well. But it is mind boggling to me that so
many people are complaining about ubiquiti putting in this value added
feature (quite well I may add). I have never seen so many complaints
about features being added. Shouldn't we instead complain about the
needed features their products are missing?
Complaining about ubiquiti adding in DPI, even if it sucked, is like
complaining that you get a dozen free games when you buy an XBox One.
You may not like the games you get, but they are free and you don't
have to play them if you don't want.
Thank you,

I think the thought is that DPI is a very intensive process and if
the router wasn't designed with enormous overhead or hardware
acceleration, it could be crippling. Maybe those routers were...

I don't know why anyone would have a problem with them putting
this on existing routers. If you don't like their routers, don't
buy them. If you do like their routers but think a feature
shouldn't be there, don't enable it.
I think it's great that ubiquiti innovates the way they do. They
have some great products that blow other products out of the water
in one way or another. And it's forced other companies to lower
their seriously over priced equipment and to rethink their
strategies. Ubiquiti really is disrupting things in the industry
in only good ways.

Well it will be interesting … sure would be nice to see
someone “disrupt” I agree … but there have been lots of folks
try to provide “DPI” and fail badly as they didn’t really
understand what they were getting into… and doing it on
existing routers is usually the first mistake in my opinion…..

They've got the resources to do it, would be nice to see
someone undercut the existing players.

I have no idea but if it’s like other attempts I’ve seen
from companies to stack heavy CPU “stuff” into a router,
then stability and any type of scaling would be first
concerns. DPI is a very complex item to see someone like
Ubiquiti jump into in my opinion…

Ok, so now that deep packet inspection has been announced
I'd assume any NDAs have been lifted. Have any of you
been using this? Any idea what type of latency is added?
That pricing model is a whole lot different from any DPI
tool that I have ever seen....
