Home-Assistant device_tracker component for Ubiquiti Edgerouter devices. HEAVILY based on AsusWRT component.
The edgeos platform offers presence detection by looking at connected devices to an EdgeOS based router.
This platform is NOT available for Microsoft Windows installations.
To use an EdgeOS router in your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:
# Example configuration.yaml entry
device_tracker:
- platform: edgeos
host: YOUR_ROUTER_IP
username: YOUR_ADMIN_USERNAME
interval_seconds: 60
ssh_key: /config/id_rsa
track_new_devices: Falsehost string (required)
The IP address of your router, eg. 192.168.1.1.
username string (required)
The username of an user with administrative privileges, usually admin.
password string (optional)
The password for your given admin account (use this if no SSH key is given).
protocol string (optional, default: ssh)
The protocol (ssh or telnet) to use.
port int (optional, default: 22)
SSH port to use.
mode string (optional, default: router)
The operating mode of the router (router or ap).

The path to your SSH private key file associated with your given admin account (instead of password).
require_ip boolean (optional, default: True)
If the router is in access point mode.
You need to enable telnet on your router if you choose to use the telnet protocol.
See the device tracker integration page for instructions how to configure the people to be tracked.
Until this is integrated as an actual component, you need to add edgeos.py to /
You can use track_new_devices: false so that you don't get one tracker per each device in your network (unless that's what you want!) and then change track: false to track: true in known_devices.yaml for the devices you actually want to track.
