Hi,

Is it possible in a router to route traffic from one specific node ( here the laptop to the DVR) but not the other way around ( DVR to 192.168.10.0/28 ) ?

        192.168.10.1/28             
            ┌──────┐                
            │laptop│                
            └───┬──┘                
                │                   
                │                   
                │                   
                ▼                   
             ┌──────┐               
        ┌────┤router├──┐            
        │    └──────┘  │            
        │              │            
        ▼              ▼            
     ┌──────┐        ┌───┐          
     │server│        │DVR│          
     └──────┘        └───┘          
192.168.10.2/28      192.168.20.1/28
                             ──     

Meaning, I want to keep the DVR in it's subnet only. But allow the laptop to reach it.

Thanks.

a more accurate diagram of what I'm targeting..

                 │                      
                 │                      
                 □                      
               ┌───┐  □                 
               │hEX│  □                 
               └───┘  □                 
                      □                 

□ = port

So it should be possible for Node 1 to reach DVR ? Either trough Firewall or VLAN rules ?
