FWG not seeing all traffic - reconfiguration of switches needed?

If I have multiple access points (Unifi) and switches in my home network, do I need to somehow configure them to automatically route ALL traffic through my Firewalla Gold?

I have my FWG setup in router mode (located right after my ISP modem), with DHCP enabled, but it seems FWG doesn't always see all the traffic from my devices.

  How are the switches and access points connected to the network? Do you have any LANs or VLANs or is it a flat network?

  Check the device IP's and make sure they are assigned through firewalla range. If not, either your AP is in router mode or you have another router running in parallel

  @David, In this case, check your Unifi controller to see if it is a DHCP server.
