Hi! Firstly thanks in advance to even reading this let alone helping!
I started to use the script made by home automation guy on youtube and have been encountering a few issues.
Setup:
Proxmox - TrueNAS - Docker (Frigate)
1gb nic Motherboard - 3 Reolink POE Camera -> POE Switch (Non VLAN) -> motherboard NIC - bridged from epn1s0 bridge setup as vmbr1
10gb nic pcie - 10gb NIC -> Router (for everything else) bridged from epn1s0 setup as vmbr0
I've managed to get Proxmox installed and running as well as installing TrueNAS and setting this share up into docker so that Frigate can record straight to TrueNAS instead of inside of docker.
The aim is to be able to have a NIC used for JUST the camera's so that they can't phone home, but also so that they can't be accessed from anywhere, unless on the local network. This would also mean I would have to setup a VPN which I assume would be using wireguard or something similar.
Inside of Portainer I will admit that I'm lost on how to import the 1gb nic over, I've managed to import the 10gb nic and can access the frigate ui on port 5000.
The other issue I seem to be having is that the frigate install seems to be looking for a camera on ip address 10.0.10.10.... I never set up this ip address and am really confused. Would someone be able to help me get the installation correct?
Here is the config.yml file as well:
GNU nano 7.2 config.yml
