 If you're using Docker, you can use
 
 ```bash
-docker run -d --name="home-assistant" -v /path/to/homeassistant/config:/config -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro -p 8123:8123 balloob/home-assistant
+docker run -d --name="home-assistant" -v /path/to/homeassistant/config:/config -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro --net=host balloob/home-assistant
 ```
