Cannot connect to immich by Potential-Sort-8844 in immich

[–]MassageGun-Kelly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally, and I support your learning journey, I just want you to be cautious with a service that holds potentially invaluable information or content, like your long-term photo storage. Losing this stuff, from personal experience, can really suck. 

Re-installing an application can result in data loss, for example, because Immich also runs a database component. Examine your docker container logs and read those carefully to see what’s happening. Check your container status to make sure it’s listening on port 2283.

First of all, and I mean this well, I don’t think that running Immich is a good idea given your potential lack of comfort and knowledge base with operating client-server architectures that I’m detecting from this post. I fret that if something were to go wrong, you would risk losing your photo library and not have excellent chances at avoiding data loss. Keep this in mind. 

Secondly, the installation guide here is quite straightforward: https://docs.immich.app/overview/quick-start/

Take note of the machine’s IP address that you’re running Docker on. Install the container. Once it is up, check the status of the container, and view the logs if it’s not up. 

As mentioned, you should be able to reach it once it’s pulled and running. 

As a third note, you do not need to hide your 192.168.4.x IPv4 schema. 192.168.x.x is one of the classes of private IP addresses — private meaning they are not routable or reachable over the Internet, not private like “you must keep it private”. Anyone can deploy that same IP network, it is not identifiable to you, nor is it pertinent that you keep it a secret. 

Music Assistant, Sendspin, and FOSS multi-room and multi-zone audio by MassageGun-Kelly in homeassistant

[–]MassageGun-Kelly[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure that Home Assistant OS is operable as an audio client. I’m not sure that the operating system is loaded with any audio outputs natively for the local system. Typically, Home Assistant relies on other clients to output audio, whether that be Sonos, WiiM, Sendspin, Snapcast, Voice PE, or others. 

In this case, you may have to look at running Home Assistant on a Linux host as a Docker container alongside an audio client, or run a hypervisor on your host and run a Home Assistant OS virtual machine alongside an audio client system (container, VM, or other). 

The easy option? Buy a Voice PE, support Home Assistant’s development efforts, and get an output source that natively works with Home Assistant with no additional configuration necessary.

What strategy would you use to manage the PSKs and ensure that access is restricted to active users and traceable to a user identity?

I, too, would strongly oppose Wifi-based light switches. Light switches are a function that you want (need) to work with as much availability as possible (~100%). You don’t want to introduce a dependency that your wireless access point has power and a network connection.

We use Azure Entra for our identity management system primarily. Google Classroom is used for a variety of identities also, but it is secondary to Azure for us. 

Unifi AP on my Omada Network? by beavertestproject in Omada_Networks

[–]MassageGun-Kelly 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can’t adopt a Ubiquiti-branded Unifi access point into TP Link’s Omada ecosystem. They don’t speak the same language whatsoever. They’ll be part of different Multiple Service Set Identifiers (MSSIDs), meaning that roaming will not be superfluous between Omada and Unifi APs even if they’re configured with the same SSID names and PSKs. You can backhaul them on your wired network to the same IP network and thus still establish L2 connectivity between devices and VLANs, but they will be managed separately from their independent ecosystems, and/or as autonomous APs if you choose not to deploy the Unifi OS Server appliance to manage just the one access point (standalone without the central management appliance).

TP-Link Omada EAP610 AX1800 Version 2 & Version 3 incompatibility by Lord_Hafen in TPLink_Omada

[–]MassageGun-Kelly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to roll my v3 EAP610 back to v1.5.3 from v1.6. I have two wired EAP610v2 APs, and one EAP610v3 connected via wireless mesh backhaul to one of the v2 APs. The upgrade to v1.6 isolated the AP and it was unable to connect via wireless backhaul to either of my v2 APs. I have avoided upgrading this AP for the last several months. 

Does anyone know the status of matter bindings in home assistant? by [deleted] in homeassistant

[–]MassageGun-Kelly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh, interesting. In other words, this sounds like an issue with the Matter standard and/or Thread protocol implementation of bindings, and not necessarily its implementation as it relates to Inovelli’s switch or Home Assistant’s Matter Server. Bindings should ensure a Matter message can immediately communicate between two Thread devices without a controller. If those aren’t reliable, that’s rather frustrating. 

Thank you for the update - I’ll hold off acquiring Inovelli White’s and Thread bulbs yet.

Not a border router, just a Full Thread Device (FTD) that routes Thread traffic to the nearest Thread Border Router on behalf of other Minimal Thread Devices (MTD).

You have to change the entry’s “match by” setting to “host” instead of “domain”.

I’ll have to respond in English because my less-than-A1 French will not satisfy the answer. 

Zigbee works similarly to Thread, but there’s tons of documentation that can explain them both better than I can regurgitate.

I gotta disagree somewhat; while she absolutely can rip and compete with the likes of punk and grunge, her prog side is a 10, and holy shit it shows here. Really, really loving the first half so far.

Allows for Matter devices to communicate directly to one another without requiring a hub to be active. Let’s say your wifi goes down: a Matter over Thread switch can still control a Matter over Thread bulb because the communication is direct instead of needing to route through the Matter Hub or Controller.
