Interesting findings regarding Hikvision on my personal network.

I use UniFi for my switching and access points. My firewall is a PFSense Netgate firewall. I also use Domotz and have the network security scanning enabled, which looks at the UPnP as well as the TCP open ports on the network per device.

I also have a mixture of Axis and Hikvision cameras. 4 Hikvision and 3 Axis cameras.

Can you guess which cameras are trying to open ports via UPnP and send something to who knows where? Yep, the Hikvision. Not one of the 3 Axis cameras i have do this unless setup to do it.

If I turn off the UPnP on the firewall it stops.
