Re: VPN vs HTTPS?

Re: Dumb question How does ONVIF scanning work?

From what i was looking at in the code its pretty basic scanning an ip range but i think the issue it only scans directly connected subnets and dosetn't have an ability top specify a subnet to scan. Because scanning a 172.1.10/30 has no point.

Dumb question How does ONVIF scanning work?

My question is basically how, does it determine what to scan ? does it just subnets that its directly connect to? Or is it some multicast thing. I ask because I am useing ZM in a docker with a 172.16.1.0/30 that has specific ports forwarded. As its stands now i haven't got onvif cameras scan to work...

Re: Looking for a new camera

Re: New hardware for 90 ip cameras

You didn't ask but, these cheap onvif units work really well for converting analog cameras. IF your converting a lot it might be worth a look. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/CCTV-Mini-DVR-4-Channel-AHDM-DVR-8Ch-Hybrid-DVR-1080P-NVR-3-in-1-Video/32334774679.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.a1a74c4dTYNN73 ...

Re: RTSP Purple Stream

I would go start checking for layer one issues aka bad/overloaded cables or switches. Your likely getting packet loss some ware along the line. Remember udp has NO error checking so this can happen with a bad link. Also make sure you don't have some device in your connection acting as a hub check fo...

Re: ZoneMinder Deletes 120GB+ (All?) Events With Little Provocation: Logs Inaccessable

Yeah, as someone who worked in a data center i can say even Raid ssds constantly needed changing out on heavy db server because a write endurance issues. And even this its high recommended to have a secondary server for uptime reasons its not uncommon to lose 2 ssds at the same time. Some older ones...

Re: Thinking about ways to improve my security system...

From wikipedia. The original IEEE 802.3af-2003[2] PoE standard provides up to 15.4 W of DC power (minimum 44 V DC and 350 mA[3][4]) on each port.[5] Only 12.95 W is assured to be available at the powered device as some power dissipates in the cable.[6] The updated IEEE 802.3at-2009[7] PoE standard a...
