Model: ER605 (TL-R605)  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 2.1.2

I have two Reolink PoE cameras connected to my managed switch (TL-SG2428P) along with a Reolink NVR also attached to the same switch.

 

My ultimate goal is to isolate my two cameras and NVR (VLAN20) so they cannot communicate with the outside world (WAN) or my secure LAN (VLAN1) but I would like to be able to view the camera/NVR streams remotely using OpenVPN.

 

Is it possible to connect to my isolated camera VLAN (with no LAN or WAN access) using OpenVPN or does it need WAN access?

Or is there a way to allow device on my VLAN1 access the camera streams but the cameras cannot access VLAN1?

 

Apologies in advance if this seems like a silly question...

 

Router: ER605 v2

Controller: OC200

Hello @blah2222,

 

Hello, It is not a silly question, but if I were you, I will try this:

1. Set a specific VLAN interface for the camera and NVR

2. Choose the Local network type as the Camera VLAN

3. Choose Tunnel mode as Split

I remember ER605 2.1.2 supports stateful ACL, you can go to Gateway ACL to set it.

Just striving to develop myself while helping others.
