    Soliciting Suggestions For A Better Or Simpler Surveillance Network Design

    You should keep the double NIC on Blue Iris and make sure the NIC with no gateway is the IPcam VLAN. That way your Dahaua cameras will not have access to your network or the internet In Unifi when you enable VLANs, you must have a default VLAN 1 that will be untagged. This can not be changed...

    The unifi switch with the .3 address and can not see the cloudkey on the .2 address especially with 2 NICs and can not receive software updates. In his case, it can not even adopt on the network.

    I mispoke when I said my network was the same. It is not actually. You have your Unifi switch separated from your cisco switch with the BI computer in between. This is a bad design actually. You need to setup VLANS and have the switches directly connected. Unifi can't access both the .2 and...

    My setup is identical to yours to the right of your cisco switch (except for the vlan ip addresses). This is the correct way to set up your cams so they dont have internet access or access to your home network. I would not change this setup. I also have a pfsense device as my router and...

    I want to be able to trigger an MQTT from ALPR based on a tag, not just a plate. Why? Because I have literally several dozens of plates that I have designated as Delivery vehicles in ALPR and I want those to trigger and send MQTT to HomeSeer for announcing. The only way to get that info now...

    Full ALPR Database System for Blue Iris!

    @algertc Circling back to the MQTT requests I've asked for in the past. I had asked in the past to be able to trigger an MQTT based on a license plate tag in addition to what we already can do with a specific plate. If that isn't easily implemented, was wondering if there were a way to...

    Blue Iris built in AI is picking up camera overlay as license plates

    Ever since I moved over to BI 6 and started using the built in AI I am consistently getting camera overlay being read as a license plate.... This never happened before. I assume it's because the model is more sensitive/accurate. Is there a way to mask off a portion of the image where AI...
