Tunneling NVR to iOS securely

Post by ChrisAV » Thu Aug 05, 2021 7:15 pm

Apologies if this question is in the wrong board - which OpenVPN product I need isn't exactly clear to me.

I need a secure connection between my home NVR (ZoneMinder) and the iOS app zmNinja. The router is an industrial 4-port PC with pfSense installed. The NVR is already on it's own interface but I don't dare open anything to the WAN because:

1.) Do I need to install OpenVPN on the NVR ZoneMinder server, or, just the install the OpenVPN package on pfSense?
Or both?

2.) Do I need to install OpenVPN Connect on my iPhones?
Or do I just configure the VPN setting that's already in the General settings of the phone?


How does WireGuard factor into all this?
