About
OpenWrt (luci) is a built-in integration that tracks device presence through an OpenWrt router. It communicates with the router locally and exposes presence entities to Home Assistant. Setup is done in the interface, where the router's hostname or IP address, a username and a password are entered. Options cover whether the connection uses SSL and whether the router's SSL certificate is verified. If an older YAML configuration fails to import because of a connection or authentication problem, a notice can appear under Repairs in Settings.
