Hi there. I am buying an ip security camera for my home. I dont trust that camera very much (Chinese brand) and from what I read, one solution is to put the camera(s) on separate vlan so they can’t see other computers/devices on my network and also block access to Internet for anything on this vlan (will store and review video locally only).
Can you please help me create such vlan? I have Turris Omnia and sw version 3.11.23
I understand that vlans are “interfaces” and can be set in LuCI, but not exactly sure how and what to set to achieve what I need.
To clarify my question - I expected there will be something like eth ports 1-5 and I will select which one I want for this new sub network. Isn’t it how it works? So I am confused what are these eth0, eth1 etc there…
One-year-old thread. Over time, things improved, at least in the migration. Yes, there was a change in how VLANs can be configured. If you are not using VLANs right now, it does not make sense to configure it now on the older version of Turris OS.
I need to say that the migration script is quite complex, and issues might appear due to complicated configurations for experienced users who edited scripts or touched configuration scripts by themselves. But if you configured it in LuCI, it should be safe. Anyway, for most users, it should be alright…
Feel free to upgrade to the newer version of Turris OS and we will gladly help you configure the VLANs.
E.g. VLAN - Turris Documentation could help you.
Since you asked when it is ready, it is getting closer and it will be soon.

Yes, it is the drawback of running very old version of Turris OS. You will see the LAN0 - LAN4 ports as separate interfaces in the recent version.
Ok I will try to migrate to version 5 first… I have nothing special, just basic services and everything was done from GUI, so hopefully will be painless. It should remember my config (wifi networks, firewall rules,…) right?
