I was referring to the VLAN taxing the UDM not the NIC cards.
From what i can find there is a huge performance drop with IP cams on VLANs using the UDM Pro.
The two NIC cards will not work for me as everyone's situation is different.
I did try the VLAN and it worked as well but i thought it was a lot more complicated so many rules to make. I didn't think my BI computer should be on the same VLAN as the cameras as it would have no internet then i...
You need to use the VPN on your home router if it has one like OpenVPN set that up use it to connect remotely. You can then enter your BI computers local IP and it will pull up the BI web GUI page just like you where at home.
I found a easy way to do it.
go to profiles create new group Type IPv4 enter the IP you want blocked hit save.
then go to firewall create new rule type internet out - action drop - source type - port/ip group IPv4 Address group select the one you just made in profiles hit save.

I'm confused about how to add wireless to the above image.
Wouldn't i just add a AP to the POE Switch #1 ports and the APs IP would need to be 192.168.2.xxx.
So i would assign NIC# 2 a IP of 192.168.2.100 And i guess the cameras would need to go as static 192.168.2.101, 192,168.2.102 etc?
NIC #1 would get a IP from DHCP or i could assign it one as 192.168.1.xxx What would BI be using the IP from NIC #1?
I may buy a new POE switch just to try this...
My issue with the above image is that i have a POE switch outside that also power a AP. I would loose the AP if i hooked it up like the above image. I only did it that way because i have underground cat6 cable run to a garage that is 175 feet away that powers a few cameras and a AP for the internet.
So basically the IP cameras need there own switch and that switch would plug into one of my BI computers NIC cards.
I think i can just move a few things around and get that to work.
