Hi all,

I'm planning to set up outdoor security cameras (garden and garage) and want to do it fully local, with no cloud.

My constraints:

  • 100% local storage, no vendor cloud or apps
  • PoE + ONVIF/RTSP, IP67, good night vision

Questions:

  1. Any better open or camera brands that work fully offline?
  2. Any firmware or hardening tips I might be missing?

Thanks!

Give your cameras a default route to an unused ip. This prevents internet access if vlans and firewalling is not available.

Frigate is pretty good, you can spin up a container and attach storage as mount point.

And keep firmware up to date.
