I would like to have all my computers and devices relating to the A/V operation of a venue I installed readily and easily available to any management/operators (and myself) via wifi yet at the same time have a customer accessible internet access.
I currently have good access for operators/managers ipads, vnc etc.. However anyone that brings in a laptop and connects to the wifi can see all the machines -and if they were a disgruntled ex employee, could wreak havoc from out in the alley! (This has happened) -We use VNC to manipulate video switching, zone audio levels, lighting scenes and music content. As well as the Ashly DSP having direct network access too
Yes I could implement a rigorous password-changing process but that would make it very difficult to operate when it gets busy. -and there's always that gap between when someone aquires a password and your next change.
The issue is the common internet service (Verizon business DSL with their crappy router-modem). I have the entire A/V system running on it's own rackmount switch and can disconnect the network from the internet very easily (unplug and move to another router with no WAN connection). However there is streaming content coming in to the A/V system, as well as my need to use LogMeIn for remote troubleshooting.
So to cut-to-the-chase, how do I have the A/V network totally inaccessible from the public network but both sharing the same internet connection?
