The `tomato` platform requires an extra config variable called `http_id`. The value can be obtained by logging in to the Tomato admin interface and search for `http_id` in the page source code.
Because of a limitation in Tomato's API, this platform will only track wireless devices. If tracking wired devices like a Philips Hue Hub is necessary, it is possible to use another platform like [NMAP](/components/device_tracker.nmap_tracker/).
To use this device tracker in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
device_tracker:
- platform: tomato
host: YOUR_ROUTER_IP_ADDRESS
username: YOUR_ADMIN_USERNAME
password: YOUR_ADMIN_PASSWORD
http_id: YOUR_HTTP_ID
```
Configuration variables:
- **host** (*Required*): The IP address of your router, e.g. 192.168.1.1.
- **username** (*Required*: The username of an user with administrative privileges, usually *admin*.
- **password** (*Required*): The password for your given admin account.
- **http_id** (*Required*): The value can be obtained by logging in to the Tomato admin interface and search for `http_id` in the page source code.
See the [device tracker component page](/components/device_tracker/) for instructions how to configure the people to be tracked.
