Managed to setup a VPN and it is up and running.
Able to playback and live view from the App from a remote site.
Having problems with alarm notification with the App. Unable to
enable due to failed to register the
DDNS server
Yes OpenVPN would be a good solution. Depending how you implemented OpenVPN it can be moderate or difficult. Check if your router supports it out of the box. If not check if you router can run firmware like did-wrt with vpn support. Another option and the option I use is a raspberry pi running OpenVPN. I find this solution to be more secure as the software is continuously being updated. I also have pi-hole running on the same raspberry pi to block ads when surfing the internet on my home network.
A lot of times the port scans look for open ports. Then the IP address and port is automatically put into a script that runs. The script has known hacks and back doors and automatically tries to get in. When successful it reports back to the loser (script kid, hacker, punk, etc) that a successful login worked. There is more to it but that is basically what it's about.
