Hello, I’m planning on creating a home server and getting some cameras.
I would like to have the server, cameras and all IOT devices be disconnected from the internet but still be able to access them within the house from different devices and maybe have limited access to them when outside.
Do I need a specific hardware for this? And what router would support this? I’m still in the planning phase but I’m looking for budget friendly solutions.
Thank you
Put them all behind a firewall and configure it to block outgoing connections. Then forward the ports you need to the internal machines. Then only something connecting from the outside can talk to them. They won’t be able to initiate a connection.
(Keep in mind, this would also block things like DNS lookups, in case that’s important to you.)
