Can't access some LAN devices on SSL VPN

Hello, 

I have some devices ( security cameras) blocked from being able to access the WAN to protect them from being hacked and for privacy. That being said I can access them when I am home on the WIFI LAN network just fine but I also want to access them while I am away.

So I set up SSL VPN on my phone using openVPN and gave it access to the local LAN. So basically I have to VPN into the house network to be able to look at my cameras. 

Now I set it all up and I can access some devices on the LAN, like my two Network Video Recorders just fine, but I cannot access the individual cameras while on VPN. I can access them while I am on the LAN network but not from VPN. 

Any idea as to what this could be and how to fix it

    You need a few steps

    1. Create Network defination of the Video Recorders under hosts and services. So call it “Recorder” and define the IP or the subnet range.

    2. Under VPN>SSL VPN Remote Access> make sure you add the newly added Network defination under Permitted Network Resources.

    3. Under firewall ; create a network rule that

    Permits Source Any; Subnet SSL VPN Subnet (assuming you have the range of SSL VPN IP’s defined under the Network defination as SSL VPN Subnet)

    Destination Any ; Destination Network with the newly created defination “Recorder”
