Noticed this a few days ago, just decided to try it out tonight.
How long has this been available?
Did I just miss it all along?

Ya clicks that blue Search for cameras button, and lookie what appears from yer LAN.
Seeing this, and knowing Dahua offers Bonjour services from their cameras, it was more of a Windoze surprise than anything else.
Or, I wonder if they're using ONVIF searches to get the device information?

Since when did Microsoft start finding and listing IP cameras on your LAN for you?
It will ask for a username and password if you attempt to connect to any of them.
The LAST thing I want is for Windoze knowing and storing these values anywhere.

Looks like I need to use my Asus routers and create a separate VLAN to keep these cameras off the 192.168.1.x default LAN.
