    Ubiquity EdgeRouter X - Configuring to Isolate Surveillance Networks

    If your "default" firewall rule is DROP, then the answer is yes. The easiest way to validate (debug) is to configure the rules, and check "log entry". Then you try opening your VPN, if that works, try opening your cams (eg DMSS). All attempts will be logged & outlined then you know which ports...

    Ubiquity EdgeRouter X - Configuring to Isolate Surveillance Networks

    Haai! There are different ways to solve this puzzle. Currently my VPN endpoint is (for various reasons) hiding in my main network. So when connecting from my mobile device (not on MAIN wifi), I can login through OpenVPN into the MAIN, and as all required video ports are open from MAIN to Guest...

    Covid19 Update

    This is how they do it here, in Western Europe. Covid information is on page 15 of the newspaper: wave number X is over. But if you look at the number of tests, those are less than 1% than in mid 2020. With a positive rate of 85% or more. Go figure. We even have hospitals with 8+ hour waiting...

    Olden day Pictures

    The good old days :love: No wifi, no fridge, no playstation. Plus waiting 15 days (or more) for the mail carriage to pass by. Who doesn't want to live in such a time with 0 packet loss :slap: Because without packets, no loss :brainfart:

    Critical vulnerabilities found in 'millions of Aruba and Avaya switches'

    It's about the wording: "The switch VLAN & Network should be blocked at the firewall." More than often, "laziness" applies "security by obscurity". And then you're an easy target for the cat.

    Then the next logical question is: can you show here what you mean with "jerky"? :cool:

    secondary stream

    It may help to state which camera you have... But overall Dahua has ample settings to mess around with: At least the resolution should give the correct "aspect ratio", all other parameters are fancy :D

    Do you have ticked the box "RECORD"/"SNAPSHOT" when drawing the IVS rules? And more importantly: did you Activate Smart Plan / IVS on your camera? It can't have both MD and IVS active at the same time, it's one or the other. And as your schedule does show (red) MD, I'm thinking you didn't turn...

    DMSS notifications stopped after upgrade to Virgin Hub 5

    I do not know this HUB thingy, but ain't there a (firewall) log which indicates, at timing of an IVS alarm (this should be visible on the NVR) versus any entries in that log file? Now p2p is not the most secured way-of-working, and especially if you're heading towards ASUS, you can opt to...

    help with config dahua vto200a as camera to nvr/dvr

    Okay, that is your physical diagram. That is okay! Can you now put your IP address of your NVR? I suspect it is in 192.168.1.x range, can you confirm? If not, there is the problem.

    help with config dahua vto200a as camera to nvr/dvr

    Can you draw your physical (how are your wires plugged & where) & logical (which IP address where). I was under impression you DID see the stream on your NVR, but your topi start post is cryptic and missing punctuation, so I'm now indeed worried your network isn't good. Please provide (can be...

    help with config dahua vto200a as camera to nvr/dvr

    Indeed, port 37777 with correct user/pass should work. What are the possibilities in that "DAHUA PROTOCOL" dropdown list? Plus if you CAN see the live stream, can't you simply copy over the "configuration settings" or even "add" that camera to this NVR? Good luck! CC

    With IVS set up, there are no alerts

    Best way forward (if you don't know what you already changed and what's not): factory reset the camera. Put in the IP address. As @wittaj wrote: activate IVS (do NOT activate MD) & smart plan. Thén draw IVS lines. And in the IVS line configuration indicate whether you want an...

    Ubiquity EdgeRouter X - Configuring to Isolate Surveillance Networks

    I personally won't allow "chinese"/untrusted devices in my inner LAN. See it like an onion network: WAN = outside, VPN is DMZ, untrusted = IPC Vlan, trusted = LAN. I only allow access FROM LAN to anything. However IPC can NEVER contact LAN, nor WAN (except for push notification & NTP). However...

    Dahua local vs remote connection

    With the correct settings (TCP versus UDP, framesize, encryption strenght) you can even optimize your bandwidth consumption, even in FullHD streaming, if your ISP support it, upload speed wise. There are ample of blogs and whitepapers on OpenVPN optimisations on the net.

    That is true, but in this case, you only need client configuration on your SmartPSS/MobileDevice, all the others remain untouched.

    Dahua local vs remote connection

    Hi @adri76 : like I wrote: NOTHING needs to be configured/changed (eg 2 network profiles on the camera). Local traffic (when being at home) will not pass through the VPN anyhow. Only when being out of your house, that VPN server will pass on LOCAL traffic to the VPN Client. On my phone, my VPN...

    Dahua local vs remote connection

    Okay, let's rephrase as there is a lot of confusion on VPN. Many people use "VPN" to hide their surfing behavior (eg their ISP can't see what they do) or to avoid geographical limitations (eg watch netflix US series from EU). This is NOT what I meant. These are VPN CLIENT solutions. Have a look...

    Dahua local vs remote connection

    Sure, search ipcamtalk forum on "VPN", there are ample solutions (eg quick ones: using an onboard VPN server on your home router eg ASUS, or bit more sophisticated on an stand-alone router (pfsense, Edgerouter)... When you open that VPN tunnel over 4G (or WAN in more general), it looks your...
