The `asuswrt` platform offers presence detection by looking at connected devices to a [ASUSWRT](http://event.asus.com/2013/nw/ASUSWRT/) based router.
|
|
|
|
<p class='note warning'>
|
|
This platform is **NOT** available for [Microsoft Windows installations](http://pexpect.readthedocs.io/en/stable/overview.html#pexpect-on-windows).
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
To use an ASUSWRT router in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
device_tracker:
|
|
- platform: asuswrt
|
|
host: YOUR_ROUTER_IP
|
|
username: YOUR_ADMIN_USERNAME
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
|
|
- **host** (*Required*): The IP address of your router, eg. `192.168.1.1`.
|
|
- **username** (*Required*: The username of an user with administrative privileges, usually `admin`.
|
|
- **password** (*Optional*): The password for your given admin account (use this if no SSH key is given).
|
|
- **protocol** (*Optional*): The protocol (`ssh` or `telnet`) to use. Defaults to `ssh`.
|
|
- **mode** (*Optional*): The operating mode of the router (`router` or `ap`). Defaults to `router`.

You need to [enable telnet](https://www.asus.com/support/faq/1005449/) on your router if you choose to use `protocol: telnet`.
