 It doesn't go "in" the directory...

 The "mount" command takes the NAS path (this is the one that has the
IP#) and maps it to the local directory path (the one without an IP#)  by
which you will access it. They don't have to be the same names. It just
requires the local directory path to exist first.

 mount ... //NAS/mnt/CCTV/PiZero /mnt/CCTV/PiZero

maps the local PiZero directory to the NAS PiZero directory -- but leaves
the parent CCTV directory as a local:

 cd /mnt/CCTV  is still on the RPI
 cd /mnt/CCTV/PiZero is really on the NAS

but if you did

 mount ... //NAS/mnt/CCTV /mnt/CCTV

and the NAS has the full path to a PiZero directory then

 cd /mnt/CCTV  will be on the NAS, and
 cd /mnt/CCTV/PiZero will also be on the NAS

 "mount" sets the "root" for the remote file system -- you can go /down/
deeper in the directory structure, but can not go above the remote root
(attempts will put you back in the local RPI file system)
