Thomas Menu asked 6 years ago hello! i’m currently working on an Arduino-based home automation system. i am using an ESP8266 chip, connected to an arduino mega (they are connected via SPI) witch i use to have more GPIO pins.
now, i run a simple web server on the esp, witch works fine for now. Trough port forwarding, I’m able to access the sever from anywhere i want. But it’s not secured.. anyone who has the IP address of the sever can access it and mess with my lights. witch, as you can imagine, want to secure. any tips on perhaps adding a password on the esp? or in some way only allow certain MAC addresses on the server?
excuse me for the horrible code, i’m a bit of a newbie.
btw, the code documentation is in Dutch. if you need some translation, hit me up!
