              Also your Vultr firewall should have the following ports open:

              0_1513547681500_8AAAF992-723F-4BF9-8773-7DA26BB00399.jpeg

                  Ports are opened internally.

                        Thought I was okay, but can't log in using http, just https.

                        It's causing a problem when I try to set the AP's to look to the vultr IP for the controller.

                          You only login through https, your manually register the APs via port 8080.

                                    Question:

                                    At a colo: I have a Cloud Key, I want to "move" the controller (off the CK) to a vm.
                                    I've followed @JaredBusch install guide

                                    What's the proper procedure to make this move in the right order?

                                      1. Get everything on the same version
                                      2. Make a backupmfrom the cloud key and download it.
                                      3. Restore the backup to the VM.

                                          Thinking out loud here...
                                          This Controller vm is behind a firewall (aka Unifi USG4)...is that a good strategy?

                                            As long as you open the ports needed it should not be an issue.
