Where is my vsync for eyes
You’re welcome! Did you manage to set up arr apps? :)
Oh boy we’re going deep I guess haha.
So an IP address is divided into four section separated by dots. 123.123.123.123. Each of those section can go from 0 to 255, so 0.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.255. Why this number? There is 256 numbers from 0 to 255, and 256 is the biggest number you can make out of 8 bits. (If you’re interested in binary, please look it up, this is already long haha) If every number between the . can be made out of 8 bits that means the whole IP address is 32 bits. It’s 32 bits cos that’s what was convenient when it was decided basically. Makes sense?
Now, the subnets. Each network can be divided into sub networks or subnets. Subnets fall into 5 classes: ABCDE. D and E aren’t used as much so I don’t know much about them.
Class A: Subnet mask is 255.0.0.0 Class B: Subnet mask is 255.255.0.0 Class C: Subnet mask is 255.255.255.0
A subnet mask determines how many bits are reserved for the network, and how many bits are used for hosts (devices). Basically, each IP address is divided into a network part and a host part. Network part is used for identifying networks and how many you can make, while host part is used for identifying hosts/devices like your phone or PC or whatever and how many can be connected.
In class A, with 255.0.0.0, the first number is reserved for the network, and the other 3 for the devices for example.
In class A you have a small amount of possible subnets but a big number of devices, and the opposite in class C.
The 24 after the slash is just a different way of saying 255.255.255.0, called CIDR notation. 255.0.0.0 is /8 and 255.255.255.0 is /16.
So depending on the subnet class, what the numbers mean differs. Well except the port and CIDR subnet mask.
All in all, all you need to know is that your router most likely has one subnet lol
wlan and eth are network adapters in your raspberry Pi probably. Not subnets. Subnet is a range of IP addresses the router can use to give out IP addresses to devices. Basically, let’s assume that the router/the local network has only one subnet 192.168.1.0/24. This number means, the router can give out IP addresses from 192.168.1.0 to 192.168.1.254. If the router had two subnets, let’s say A: 192.168.1.0/24 B: 192.168.2.0/24 device on subnet A, would be able to talk to the device on subnet B.
Either way, in my opinion you’re overcomplicating things a lot for yourself. If you only wish to watch from home, on your couch, you don’t need reverse proxies, cloudflare and all that jazz. Docker and raspberry pi is enough. I can walk you through it if you want :)
Yeah but nothing else would fit the joke so… it is what it is :P
