Question:

What is happening on the website, and in the Logical Interface of Packet Tracer?

The light on the motion detector turned on, the light on the security camera turned on, the door locked, the lamp turned to dim setting, and the website showed a video.

4. When the motion detector turns off, so does the security camera. Unfortunately, you have managed to lock yourself out of the house.
