Hey. I'm adding integration first time and want to use local management. But there is no option to select local management during initial configuration in HA: image

As I see in code there is SSCPOE_local_search job. which should provide scanned devices, but it is not. Is there any hints what to do?

Note the communication is mulicast UDP. The device must be in the same network. I can increase TTL, but I'm not sure it will help. You can try the official Windows Desktop management application http://www.sscee.com/en/en/col.jsp?id=105 to be sure the device is accesible.

The Windows Desktop management app allows to select the NIC (network interface). The integration selects the NIC automatically trying to make route to IP 8.8.8.8.

Also check Home Assistant logs for SSCPOE. Probably it may help.
