The `linksys_ap` platform offers presence detection by looking at connected devices to a Linksys based access point.
It was tested with a LAPAC1750 AC1750 Dual Band Access Point.
To use a Linksys Access Point in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
device_tracker:
- platform: linksys_ap
host: 192.168.1.1
username: admin
password: password
```
Configuration variables:
- **host** (*Required*): The hostname or IP address of your access point, eg. `192.168.1.1`.
- **username** (*Required*: The username of an user with administrative privileges (read-only is sufficient).
- **password** (*Required*): The password for your given admin account.
- **verify_ssl** (*Optional*): Verify SSL certificate for https request. Defaults to true.
Example for all configuration options:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
device_tracker:
- platform: linksys_ap
host: 192.168.1.1
username: admin
password: password
verify_ssl: true
scan_interval: 6
consider_home: 12
```
See the [device tracker component page](/components/device_tracker/) for instructions how to configure the people to be tracked.
