Abstract

With the rise of smart home automation, remote access to IoT devices has become a key area of interest. This paper presents an innovative approach to triggering a smart door from the internet using an ESP32 microcontroller, a static IP, port forwarding, and a domain hosted on Hostinger. The proposed system integrates the ESP32 with a relay module to control the door lock, while a secure web interface enables remote access. We enable direct external communication with the ESP32 using a static IP by leveraging port forwarding on a home router. A domain name from Hostinger is also used to simplify access, eliminating the need for complex IP management. Security considerations, including authentication mechanisms and firewall configurations, are also discussed to prevent unauthorized access. The results demonstrate a cost-effective and efficient method for remote door control, making it a practical solution for smart home enthusiasts and IoT-based security systems.
