UNIFI OS 2.4.8
PROTECT 2.2.11

Hi @Excesstomatos and sorry for the delayed response, I rarely find time to work on my projects these days...

To me it looks like your machine might be on a different VLAN / network / subnet than your UNVR. If there's no route between these two networks (i.e. you can't open the UNVR's IP address in a browser on that machine or ping it via command line) then the tool cannot connect to the UNVR either.

Additionally, double check that the IP address parameter is set to the correct value (eg. 10.20.100.1), and that it's reachable from the machine you're running the Docker image on. Also check if your Docker network config is correct and not, for example, using another network interface than intended.

If you can reach the UNVR from your Docker host but the tool still won't connect, feel free to add another comment and I'll try to help further.
