Model: Deco M5  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.5.7 Build 20210819 Rel. 43499

I configured my alarm system for my Deco M5 Network. When listing the devices with "arp -a" it shows the mac address and the IP as present in the network. However it is not listed in among the devices in the app (Section Port Forwarding or IP Reservation). How can I configure the port forwarding to a connected, but not listed device?

@TP-Link Yes, the device can only be configured with a static IP. I will try the workaround you suggested. Thanks !

@Markus57 Problem solved. Instead of changing the DHCP range I reserved the port for the device. It appears to work!

Hi, Thank you for your time and patience.

If you checked on the online list of Deco APP, I am afraid the alarm system is not there either, right?

Did the alarm camera get an IP address via DHCP or a static IP address?

And it is also suggested to have a look at this link:
