So if I wanted wide open access from VPN to IOT, I would need similar Firewall rules to WAN_Local?

Cameras plugged in to a Dahua NVR take the NVR passwords when you configure them. If that doesn’t work, reset and re-set up Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

CC, need a little help with my EdgerouterX. VLAN's are all setup (guest, IOT) and Guest/IOT are blocked from the main network, and I can access form the main to the Guest/IOT. What I can't figure out is how to access the IOT when on VPN. Is this something you can provide some guidance on?

Has anyone found a way to turn of email notifications on an NVR? It would be great to have a toggle to prevent 5M photos when out doing yard work!

That's it. I'll need to go test it, but it wasn't ticked there. Thanks.

SmartPSS mainly. But if I go through the web browser, there is only a link to open the camera via the "Camera" IP address, unless I am missing a settings page. It seems to me there was a setting buried somewhere that you had to tick off each channel that you wanted emails sent from. For the...

Negative. I can check and uncheck the email setting and see it change on both SmartPSS and vice versa on the camera.

I'll give that a try. I just looked at the NVR and it is in fact saving snapshots of the "detected" items. Just won't email them, so I know it is detecting properly.

I am getting around to replacing some of my 5231's with 5442's to eliminate some of the false alerts I've been receiving (snow, rain, etc.) Existing cameras (for the most part) are sending emails with pictures, but for the life of me, I can't get the new camera to send. Yes, the "attachment" box...

@guykuo, great writeup. I was wondering if you couldn't create a Firewall/NAT Group with your security camera IP's and then create a firewall rule in WAN_Local (I think that is the right one vs. WAN_IN) to reject all connections from that Group? While not isolated on a VLAN, it would prevent...

Wondering if anyone has found a way to send a snapshot to HA upon crossline/human/etc. detection?

If you are using Home Assistant, there is a good integration put together by @runraid!

I have 3 Acres, but I'd have to think how I'd mount that monster!

I know it is Alaska and digging may be difficult due to rock, but 200' is not all that far for ethernet wire. Assuming you could dig/get to where you want to be, you could bury a 1" conduit and pull a couple of ethernet cables or even a fiber (which would give you the most bandwidth).

AFAIK, that camera doesn't have onboard IR illuminators and I'm not sure it has an IR cut filter either. You will need to provide external lighting to get any usable night time picture.
