## Advanced configuration
There are some manual configuration options available. These are only needed with unusual network setups where automatic configuration does not find your LIFX devices.

Automated discovery of LIFX bulbs relies on Home Assistant having a [network interface](/integrations/network) connected to the same subnet as your LIFX bulbs. If you use a segregated IoT network to which Home Assistant is not directly connected, use the manual configuration method documented above to bypass discovery.
LIFX and HomeKit based discovery of LIFX bulbs relies on Home Assistant having a [network interface](/integrations/network) connected to the same subnet as your LIFX bulbs. If you use a segregated IoT network to which Home Assistant is not directly connected, use the manual configuration method documented above to bypass discovery.
If you have multiple network interfaces, ensure that the interface connected to the same subnet as your LIFX bulbs is enabled in Home Assistant's [network configuration](/integrations/network).
