Firewalla keeps reporting/blocking malware sites from accessing my Channels instance - any advice?

Channels DVR Server
#1

I have a Firewalla router and my Channels is installed on a Proxmox VE. I use Channels via 2 AppleTVs as well as my MacBook at home. Will also use when away using the built in connection rather than tail scale.

Firewalla has been reporting and blocking 'malware sites' from accessing the internal IP of Channels and I'm not sure if there is something I can/should do to 'hide' the signal my Channels server is broadcasting.

I do have Network Discovery on

Thanks!

If you have remote streaming access enabled and port forwarding on, you have an open port on the Internet, so it's to be expected. There are port scanners running 7x24 that find open Internet ports.

If you want to be more secure, use something like Tailscale.

That only broadcasts to your local lan.
