Making IP camera (non-Meraki brand) viewable outside of LAN

[MrBear]

My first Meraki system was installed a couple of weeks ago (love it) but I am still figuring things out.

The Need:

I have all Axis cameras but one of them, which is pointed at my aquarium, needs to be viewable by my "fish guy"

Is there a safe & easy way to him to view my Axis camera from outside the LAN? 

Thanks

Wyze cam. If you want simple. (Non Meraki) Give it a search.

you'd need to open the port the stream/camera uses on your firewall - eg port forwarding

Note that unpatched security cameras are the #1 source of IoT based compromises.  Make sure you patch your camera firmware before starting.

As others have said, you could configure a port forward.

A more secure method would be to use client VPN.

As @PhilipDAth said I would use a vpn here as port forwards are to unsecure.

On the dangers of IoT and fish front.

If you can, I'd put those cameras on a separate subnet with some firewall rules, in addition to patching the heck out of em.
