Hi I am hoping someone can help I have a reolink POE doorbell, Dahua NVR and some Dahua IP camera's. I am setting up some vlans to create a more secure setup on my Synology router. I have the onvif stream setup to constantly stream from my reolink to my NVR as I have never had much love for motion recording. there's always a bit before or after that you need.


Anyway I digress. I have the doorbell and the NVR on Two indiviual lan's the NVR lan has internet blocked and the Reolink has internet access as I use the reolink app (the just isn't a good alternative- home assistant just doesn't cut it for 2 way audio . I am struggling to setup the firewall rule that allows the doorbell to stream to the NVR across lans. every time I enable the last kill everything else rule on the firewall it blocks the stream to the NVR.

the firewall allow rule from the doorbell to the NVR on port 8000. I cant work out what I need to change. any help or insite would be great.

thanks in advance

I'm guessing that for the video stream, port 554 would be needed.
What guided the choice for port 8000 - is this the ONVIF command and control port as used by the doorbell? Have you custom-defined this in the NVR?
It's what a Hikvision camera would use for Hikvision's command and control dialogues with an NVR.
every time I enable the last kill everything else rule on the firewall it blocks the stream to the NVR.
Does this generate a firewall deny log entry that would provide any clues?
