configure sonicwall to access nvr ports via global vpn client

I have a sonicwall nsa2650 and i have an nvr with poe ports on the back that have an internal dhcp server controlling them on a 10.0.0.x subnet. I want to access those ports from my laptop when connected via global vpn client.  sonicwall has x1 and x2 as wan, x0 as lan on 10.10.30.x, and I have plugged one of the nvr ports into x3 on sonicwall.  I need help configuring sonicwall so that I can navigate to the 10.0.0.x subnet

what IP address does the X3 have?

to give access for your GVC Clients, you need to go to the user / group properties and add X3 Subnet to the VPN Access List on the user and/or groups

I set the x3 as a wan zone, since it will be taking signals from the NVR, and I gave the x3 10.0.0.50, which is on the subnet of the nvr camera ports.  The lan zone that has the global vpn client has a subnet of 10.10.30.x  I can authenticate through the gvc, and I can see nodes on the 10.10.30.x but cant reach the 10.0.0.x subnet
not sure what an NVR is, is it a another WAN connection?
if not I suggest you set X3 as DMZ zone.
Did you include X3 subnet into the VPN access list for your VPN users?
NVR is a network video recorder that sits behind the sonicwall on the lan, however it has on board 8 poe ports on a different subnet into which the ip cameras plug in.  I will double check the vpn access settings

That sounds great.  Please bear with me, as I am out of town for two weeks for spring break vacation, and will not have physical access to reconfigure the ports, nor easy remote access. Upon my return, I will try this out and see how it goes and update  everyone with a comment.  Thanks again for your comprehensive response.
My pleasure! Have a great vacation. See you when you return.
