One problem of Ubiquitis Unifi Dream Machine (UDM / UDP Pro) is the automatic backup feature. Don't get me wrong... it is great to have an automatic backup feature, but storing backups just on the UDM itself is not a good practice. If you have to hard reset the UDM or the UDM dies, the backups get unaccessable and you have to start from scratch. Also, the newly introduced cloud backup feature is beta and doesn't take care about your Unifi Protection setup. For security reasons, enabling SSH on the UDM and pull the backups from the UDM was not an option for me, as SSH on the UDM is reachable from every VLAN by using password authentication. You could configure that, but your configuration gets resettet on each boot. So, pushing backups was the only option. For this I built this docker container, which starts, copies the backups to an external FTP server on your network or the internet and deletes itself. If you have a Unifi Cloud Key Gen 2, have a look at my FTP backup for Ubiquiti Unifi Cloud Key Gen 2. aessing/uck-backup-ftp.
