A device that can communicate with other devices on a network. During setup and configuration,
an input requesting a **Host** typically refers to a device's network address so that
Home Assistant can attempt to connect to it. This may be in the form of a hostname, URL,
IP address or some other type of network identifier.
IP address or some other type of network identifier. If you do not know the hostname or IP address of a device, you can find it in your router's webinterface. For example, if your device is connected wirelessly, somewhere there is a page listing all the devices that are connected to your network. It depends on your router, where exactly this page is. It could be under **Network** > **Wireless**.
excerpt: >-
A device that can communicate with other devices on a network.
A device that participates in your network. If asked for the host, enter either the device's IP address or host name. If you don't know those, check the list of hosts in your router.
