I'm not sure if this is the right community to ask, but I'm going to try anyway.

So, my Asus Router has smb file server, and vpn server feature, and I have a cctv unit connected to the router as well.

I believe have set up the vpn, port forwarding etc correctly... check the public ip is already the same. But how do I access the smb and my cctv? I've tried the local ip (192.168.50.xxx) with no luck, neither is the public ip (which make sense).

Any info or guidance is much appreciated.
