Hello,
Thank you for everybody who gave info about these cameras. Obviously special thanks
@David L ! for his 101 guide.
After reading all the pages, I bought the Ezviz DB1.
Here some specific info for port opening in my firewall. It might be helpful for some.
My network is pretty closed and these cameras talk a lot... At the beginning I placed the cam in my standard network but I needed to open too many ports. And even doing so, I had hard time getting 2 ways communication after someone rang the bell.
I decided to place the camera on my guest network (VLAN). This vlan has full internet access but all traffics are blocked
TO my local lan devices. In another words, guest devices cannot talk to my internal lan devices but lan devices can talk to guest devices. I don't care about somebody being able to look outside my house but I care about my internal access.
And at the end I wanted the 2 ways communication feature of this cam. If not I would have bought a standard cam.
In order to view the video from Ezviz app I needed to allow traffic from my local_devices_ip
TO any external ip at port : 6500, 7100 and 10554
In order to answer a ring call from Ezviz app I needed to allow traffic from my local_devices_ip
TO any external ip at port : 9664
I already had a rule that allows traffic from my local_devices_ip
TO all_internal_ip at port : 554. So streaming was already working thru zoneminder(NVR).
I will follow closely for the next few days if I need to open more ports but these are the ones I found so far!
If you want more info about securing your network with pfsense, here is a really good guide
. This guy did a really good job to explain networking for people building their network rules.
Cheers!
