# Panda — Home Assistant Host
|
||
|
||
> Dedicated Raspberry Pi running **Home Assistant OS (HAOS)** — the central smart home automation hub for the homelab.
|
||
|
||
## Overview
|
||
|
||
| Field | Value |
|
||
|-------|-------|
|
||
| **Hostname** | `a0d7b954-ssh` (HAOS SSH add-on container) |
|
||
| **Hardware** | Raspberry Pi (BCM) |
|
||
| **OS** | Home Assistant Operating System |
|
||
| **Role** | Smart home hub, IoT controller, automation engine |
|
||
| **VLAN** | IoT VLAN 30 (primary) + Server VLAN 50 |
|
||
| **IP (VLAN 30)** | `192.168.30.196` |
|
||
| **IP (VLAN 50)** | `192.168.50.196` (currently unreachable via .50) |
|
||
| **Domain** | `ha.tophermayor.com` |
|
||
| **Port** | 8123 (HTTP) |
|
||
| **Physical Path** | UGC Ultra Port 2 → SG108PE trunk |
|
||
|
||
## Network
|
||
|
||
- **Primary IP**: `192.168.30.196` on IoT VLAN 30 — directly on the IoT subnet for device discovery
|
||
- **Secondary IP**: `192.168.50.196` on Server VLAN 50 — for management access from server network
|
||
- **Traefik Proxy**: Both [[ubuntu]] and [[grizzley]] Traefik instances route `ha.tophermayor.com` → `192.168.30.196:8123`
|
||
- **DNS**: Cloudflare `*.tophermayor.com` → Traefik
|
||
|
||
### Network Reconfiguration History
|
||
|
||
A planned reconfiguration exists at `scripts/homelab/HOMEASSISTANT-NETWORK-RECONFIGURE.md` to swap the primary interface:
|
||
- Target: `end0` on VLAN 50 (192.168.50.196) as primary, `end0.30` on VLAN 30 (192.168.30.196) as secondary
|
||
- This would improve management access while keeping IoT discovery on VLAN 30
|
||
|
||
## SSH Access
|
||
|
||
- **Port 22**: Requires password auth (`bear` user, password-protected)
|
||
- **Port 22222**: Connection refused (Advanced SSH add-on not listening here)
|
||
- **SSH add-on**: "Advanced SSH & Web Terminal" is installed and configured with multiple authorized keys
|
||
- **Note**: Grizzley's SSH key (`bear@grizzley`) needs to be added to the add-on's authorized_keys for agent access
|
||
|
||

||
## Installed Add-ons
|
||
|
||
- Advanced SSH & Web Terminal
|
||
- File Editor
|
||
- HACS (Home Assistant Community Store)
|
||
- ESPHome
|
||
- Whisper (STT)
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Automations & Voice
|
||
|
||
- **Voice Pipeline**: openWakeWord → Whisper (STT) → HA Assist → Piper (TTS)
|
||
- **Voice Hardware**: Home Assistant Voice PE (ESPHome)
|
||
- **iBeacon Tracker**: BLE presence detection
|
||
|
||
## Storage
|
||
|
||
- **TrueNAS mount**: Configured via Home Assistant Mount integration for backups/media
|
||
|
||
## Relationships
|
||
|
||
- Managed by [[ubuntu]] and [[grizzley]] Traefik via reverse proxy
|
||
- Integrates with [[aqara-hub-m3]] for Aqara device bridging
|
||
- Uses [[home-assistant-connect-zbt-2]] as Zigbee/Thread coordinator
|
||
- Connects to [[ubuntu]] mounted storage via NFS
|
||
- Part of the [[matter-multi-fabric]] architecture
|
||
|
||
## Troubleshooting
|
||
|
||
- **SSH access**: Must use password auth until grizzley key is added to SSH add-on config
|
||
- **VLAN 50 IP unreachable**: The `.50.196` address doesn't respond to ping. Only `.30.196` works. Check if VLAN trunk is properly configured on the switch port.
|
||
- **HA CLI**: `ha` commands require supervisor token — accessible only from within HAOS supervisor context, not from SSH add-on shell without proper auth
