# 02. Configure Cameras **Camera Network** The first thing to be made sure of is to create a dedicated network for your camera system. This can either be dedicated or VLAN based. In this way you can separate Camera traffic from other traffic and if your camera netwok gets breached than all other services will not be affected. Depending on your network setup you can either define this VLAN directly on an L3 swich or if you use the router on a stick model on your router. Hence, make sure all cameras are on the same CAM network. **Initial Camera Setup** Now, by default your cameras are not yet living on the camera network VLAN that we just created. Now, for each brand and camera it is different but it basically boils down to this. 1. Make sure you have a laptop with an ethernet port 2. Look up on the internet how you can reset your particular camera to its default settings. 3. This will most likely also tell you what the default IP address is that particular camera e.g Amcrest cameras live on 192.168.1.108. 4. If you know that then you also know on which network it lives. 5. Next, we need to set our laptop to the same default network as the camera. 6. Then we can simply access the camera by typing in the address of the camera in our favourite webbrowser. 7. Then again depending on your camera, go to the networking page to give your camera a static IP address on the Camera Network. 8. Note! Once you change the ip address of the camera then you can only keep accessing it if you bring your laptop on that network as well. 9. After you have done that you can stick the IP camera in an untagged CAM Network port on your PoE switch. 10. If you can then connect to it with your laptop by connected it as well to the same switch then you know it works! 11. Repeat this process until you brought all the cameras on the camera network. **Streams** Next up are the camera stream possibilities of your camera. Most cameras come at least with two camera streams. These streams are basically recording the same thing but on different resolution scales. For instance, for your recordings you would love to have the highest resolution possible, howerver for your object and sound detection you don't need that. This can greatly reduce the stress on your resources and hence provide a much smoother experience, especially on systems that are not so well resourced. Other that we also need to know or set the resolution of all of the cameras. The reason being is that these resolutions should be the same as in our Frigate configuration file later on. It is all up to you and the resources but some common resolutions would be 1. 640x480 (VGA) for substream (The higher the sream the more stress will be put on your resources) 2. Highest resolution for main stream (e.g 1920x1080 or 2960x1668) Make sure you write these numbers down and have set them all the same for all your cameras. **NTP Time Server** An NTP server (Network Time Protocol server) is a server that provides accurate time information to clients over the Internet, allowing them to synchronize their clocks to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) with high precision. NTP servers can maintain time accuracy within a few milliseconds over local networks and tens of milliseconds over the public Internet. Now why would you want this ? Well you want that each camera in your system displays the same time i.e that all clocks are synchronized. They even synchronize with summer and winter times ;) This is a must have instead of cameras showing different times. Now, which NTP servers to use then ? Well I would recommend to use the NTP servers from the [NTP Pool Project](https://www.ntppool.org/en/). The pool.ntp.org project is a big virtual cluster of timeservers providing reliable, [easy to use](https://www.ntppool.org/en/use.html) NTP service for millions of clients. You could click on your continent region and then use any of the time servers they provide. For instance clicking on Europe you get the following addresses

server 0.europe.pool.ntp.org server 1.europe.pool.ntp.org server 2.europe.pool.ntp.org server 3.europe.pool.ntp.org

You can use any of these 4 and implement them as the NTP server for each camera. Make sure to use the same s.t they all use the same time servers and are synchronized. **Viewing Preferences** Now, depnding on the camera you have obtained they all have different possibilities. It is now then time to go to the cameras and tweak it to your liking. For instance, if you prefer night vision with colour on your camera's then you can set that setting for your camera. I would highly recommend to do this ;) # 01. Hardware Pass Through To make frigate operate smoothly and effectively a GPU or XXX should be used for hardware acceleration. Otherwise all the image recognition and playback needs to be handled by the CPU which is really heavy. If you don't do this and you have a bunch of cameras then it can easily consume 8 cpu cores if not more. Hence, get a GPU or Google XXX device. 1. Inside of the BIOS of your system go to Tutorial on Hardware Acceleration for Frigate: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SeHgsIwyOuY](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SeHgsIwyOuY) 1\. Then Resizable BAR needs to be turned on in the BIOS of your system if it's available. 2\. Then go int # 3. Mount NFS Share # 04. Mount NFS Share to Linux VM 1. Create dataset 2. Data space management -> set it to x TiB 3. Shares -> Unix -> Add !!!! Mount should happen at root !!!!! Now, that we have created an NFS share it is time to share it with another machine virtual or bare metal. In this case we will install inside a linux VM To test if a TrueNas NFS share can be mounted use the following command: ``` sudo mount -t nfs 10.131.1.10:/mnt/alexandria/frigate /home/dpasnfrigate/media ``` ``` sudo mount -t nfs 10.131.1.10:/mnt/alexandria/frigate /home/dpasnfrigate/media ``` # Keep NFS share Mounted on Reboots Generally, you will want to mount the remote NFS directory automatically when the system boots. The /etc/fstab file contains a list of entries that define where how and what filesystem will be mounted on system startup. To automatically mount an NFS share when your Linux system starts up add a line to the /etc/fstab file. The line must include the hostname or the IP address of the NFS server, the exported directory, and the mount point on the local machine. Use the following procedure to automatically mount an NFS share on Linux systems: 1. Set up a mount point for the remote NFS share: ``` sudo mkdir /frigate/media ``` ``` sudo mkdir /frigate/media ``` 2. Open the /etc/fstab file with your text editor : ``` sudo nano /etc/fstab ``` ``` sudo nano /etc/fstab ``` 3. Add the following line ``` 10.131.2.10:/mnt/alexandria/frigate frigate/media nfs defaults 0 0 ``` ``` 10.131.2.10:/mnt/alexandria/frigate frigate/media nfs defaults 0 0 ``` 4. it 5. Finally you need to update the new file with ``` systemctl daemon-reload ``` ``` systemctl daemon-reload ``` 6. Run the mount command in one of the following forms to mount the NFS share: ``` mount frigate/media ``` ``` mount frigate/media ``` 7. The mount command, will read the content of the /etc/fstab and mount the share. 8. Next time you reboot the system the NFS share will be mounted automatically. admin 60ab1406fba90830c0126bbdcae06743d54a4f62d76f1e75 sudo apt install gnome-software-plugin-flatpak
