Hello community,
I'm planning mobile video surveillance for three geographically separate locations and am looking for a practical solution for the end user.
The setup per location:
Main router (192.168.10.x) --> UniFi Cloud Gateway (172.25.x.x) --> NVRs + IP cameras
WAN gateway: Traditional main router (192.168.10.x).
Camera router: UniFi Cloud Gateway for a separate video network, which I can then secure with granular firewall rules within the UniFi Cloud Gateway. This wouldn't be possible with the main router. I also want to isolate the main router network from the camera network.
UniFi IP Networks (anonymized): No routing conflicts thanks to clean separation:
Location 1: 172.25.41.x
Location 2: 172.25.42.x
Location 3: 172.25.43.x
Goal: Central access to the three local NVR video streams via a smartphone app.
The Problem:
Requirement: The end user wants to view live images from all locations simultaneously in a multi-view while on the go (iOS/Android).
VPN Limitation: The protocol used is WireGuard to the UniFi Cloud Gateway. Mobile operating systems are known to block the simultaneous activation of multiple tunnel profiles.
Usability: Manually switching between profiles in the WireGuard app is impractical for everyday use. A single-profile solution on the smartphone would be ideal.
How do you handle such multi-location scenarios in practice to enable simultaneous live viewing without manual tunnel juggling?
I look forward to your input and creative approaches.
