24.1 Production Series / Port Forwarding IP Cameras
« on: April 08, 2024, 03:15:47 am »
call me a dumdum if you must...really having trouble following documentation re: port forwarding. in my instance i have an ip camera connected to igc2 port of the router. coming from ddwrt and now fully realizing i dont know what the hell im doing i suppose...could really use some help with the 1-1 translation between ddwrt way and opnsense way of doing things.
in ddwrt i'd go to nat/qos>port fowarding, application was "camera", protocol was "both" because although my cell phone connecting via https, i couldn't connect https when trying to access within the network when home...never figured that one out years ago and gave up...anyway...source net blank, port from "30010, ip address 192.168.1.5, port to "443", and enabled was selected...bam just always worked.
i cant decipher where each of these settings above go into the opnsense>nat>port fowarding???
also sad to say im not sure of this, but i think i need to assign the ports to an interface and im afraid of messing that up too. remember they are only plugged in and that's it.
i know i know...i could use vlan or openvpn to avoid all this but i don't want my cell phone being a part of the network even temporarily to check the ip camera feeds. thx
