What do I need to separate devices to its own no-internet network and still be able to communicate with within the house and outside? (Diagram provided)
(programming.dev)
Hello, I'm planning on creating a home server and getting some cameras.
I would like to have the server, cameras and all IOT devices be disconnected from the internet but still be able to access them within the house from different devices and maybe have limited access to them when outside.
Do I need a specific hardware for this? And what router would support this? I'm still in the planning phase but I'm looking for budget friendly solutions.
Thank you
There's already some good answers here, just wanted to share my "solution"
I had a similar problem where I wanted some specific device to not have internet connection but still be on LAN. My lazy ass solution was to manually set the network settings with default gateway set to 0.0.0.0. With IPv6 it would be [::].
But this is not meant to be an advice. You may not even be able to manually set network settings on some of those IoT devices, and removing default gateway from DHCP server is not exactly an elegant solution. Perhaps you could set it to serve different settings based on MAC, but then the other solutions are perhaps simpler and better in some other way.
As I said, this is not an advice.
