Here is a list of ports that you may need to open some ports on your firewall to manage your network remotely.
Ports 443/tcp, 443/udp, 3478/udp, 8883/tcp are needed for UniFi Cloud access.
When administrators access this controller via unifi.ubnt.com, there will be some outbound UDP traffic if remote access is ongoing (via WebRTC), and the port numbers are dynamic.
