Link network segments was created by sidewinder
Hi,
I am wondering if I can do what I am thinking.

I have two network segments (IP pools).
I have a camera server on one IP pool, which I want the other IP pool to access "on-site" without having to go via an internet connection.
So IP pool 1 can "link" to a single IP address in IP pool 2.
Say 123.456.789.012 (and a couple of others) can link to 210.987.654.321 port 1234 to view the cameras.
At the moment client 123.456.789.012 has to connect via "mycameraserver.co.uk", and it is quite slow and problematic.

I can't put all of the devices in the same IP pool.

Is this feasible, can anyone help please?

Thanks,
Paul

Yes enabled routing between the LAN zones. But the two IP ranges listed are external (public). What are the LAN segment ranges?

I just made the ip’s up.
The real ones are in two of the private ip pools.
192.169. & 10.10.

ok so LAN, General Setup, in the inter-LAN routing grid enable routing between the two subnets. Then either use the IP address of the controller directly, or create a DNS alias for it via Applications, LAN DNS and use that alias.
