OpenVPN can be used to allow remote access to the ZM server and camera feeds, remotely.


Setup

Follow instructions on [code]http://github.com/nyr/openvpn-install[/code]

Edit /etc/default/e

If you have not setup a VPN before, you need to understand how to troubleshoot if things go wrong. VPNs are widely documented on the internet.


Mobile Device

This works easily on a mobile device as well.

Troubleshooting

I can't connect to the internet when VPN is running

This particular VPN, by default adds a setting called: This setting will route traffic through VPN which you do not want for an OpenVPN setup with a camera. You want a VPN that connects only to the camera machine subnet when you want it. You are not trying to forward all outgoing traffic. Note that this setting is in addition to the push default gw commands that you might already know forward traffic.
