This project is a cost-effective way of getting a security camera up and running that you can view over the network and also have it, so it is motion activated.
Remember the Raspberry Pi isn‘t a powerhouse, so performance will degrade if you try to do too much by adding too many high definition cameras.
With that said, it‘s still an excellent way of building your own affordable camera network. So let‘s get to it.22-08-2024 - Finding your Raspberry Pi‘s MAC Address
The MAC address is a unique identifier that every network controller has. These unique identifiers are used to identify a given device within a network.
Unlike an IP address, these are not assigned by the router. Instead, they exist as an identifier within the network interface itself.
For example, the modern Raspberry Pi‘s that have built-in Wi-Fi feature two MAC addresses. One MAC address for the ethernet interface, and the other address for the Wi-Fi interface.15-08-2024 - Headless Raspberry Pi Setup
A Raspberry Pi is considered headless when you have no monitor or keyboard connected to it.
A headless Raspberry Pi can be useful for any situation where you don‘t want or need access to a monitor and keyboard. For example, the Plex Media Server, NAS Server, or Transmission projects don’t need a monitor to be able to function.
Usually, setting up a device without a monitor or keyboard can make things a little complicated. Luckily for us, there is a couple of things we can do to reduce that.05-08-2024 - Setting up a WireGuard VPN on the Raspberry Pi

An SSH honeypot is a fake SSH server that you can run on your Raspberry Pi to capture bad actors. A user or bot attempting to access your network would get stuck in the honeypot.
One of the cool things about this honeypot is that you can quickly get an idea of how an attacker might approach your system and the commands they might issue over SSH once they gain access.
Since this is a honeypot, any command an attacker uses never actually occurs, and the sshesame daemon fakes the responses.26-06-2024 - Using Dropbox on the Raspberry Pi
