LAN Monitor / Network Device  Monitor {v2.6} ------ to be used with Smart Message Hub {v 1.0}

Modified to to be used with Smart Message Hub

- Label check removed to simplify virtual device

4 simple steps to upgrade from v2.5 to v2.6

1. Import the new virtual device
2. Configure your SendMsg preferences 
3. Copy your v2.5 jsonNetwork table to v 2.6 and set UpdateData to 'true'
4. Set UpdateData to 'false' and that's it !!

 

LAN Monitor / Network Device  Monitor {v2.5} ------ has built in Notification Services

The main difference between 2.0 and 2.5 are the following

• Virtual Device ONLY - ( no need for separate scene, table updates are now done through VD)
• Global variable table is created automatically created for new users
• Added HC2 Popup service as an extra notification option

 

The following features are still available

• Individual LAN devices can be marked for Alert
• Alert Notification options configurable for HC2 email (default), pushover, or ALLINONE (@jompa68)
• One Alert will be received when device goes offline and another when it comes back online
• Online/Offline status is captured in global table that can be used to trigger other events
• Debug routine called vdCheck will verify that correct quantity of vd labels and format was setup
• Status/Error/Check feedback through the virtual device log console as visible through the Web UI 

 

I use this to monitor Internet, Unifi Security Gateway, HC2, Sonos API (pi), TV's, Sat Box, Apple TV, Droid Box, Alarm Panel, Alarm Gateway, Syn NAS Global cache device, Cameras, Tablets, Sonos players, Access points and phones. Alerts setup for Internet, USG, Sonos API, Access points, cameras, Sonos players, Alarm panel, alarm gateway and NAS. There are some nuances with some devices such as TV's and Phones.

== INSTALLATION: Upgrading from 2.0 ==
    - Import the LAN Monitor 2.5 VD and copy in device table from Update Network Table 2.0
    - Run VD with updateData  = "true" to update the Network table (default setting is false)
    - Run VD with updateData  = "false" to operate in normal mode
    - Update notification and frequency of update options

 

== INSTALLATION: First Time Users ==
STEP 1  - Import the LAN Monitor 2.5 virtual device
        - Populate the device table. Device, ip, port and enter alert = "1" for device notification

               - alert is user configurible per device

               - alert = 1 (enable alerts - alerts sent if it goes offline or comes back online )

               - alert = 0 (disable alerts for this device)

        - Select the notification options 
        - Run VD with updateData  = "true" to populate the device table
        - Run VD with updateData  = "false" to operate in normal mode

Step 2 (optional) - create labels to display device status in VD
        - Create one label for each device in the global variable table, use the default ID - Label1, Label2, etc. 
        - Enter Label Names (1, 2, 3, etc) to match order order of devices in Table (devices can be skipped but ID's must match)
        - Select Main  label to display one device when observing through Web UI 
        - If you want to use all labels you can use Set vdCheck = "true" to confirm correct quantity and format of labels.

Just a thought, how can the hc2 send out a alert to let me know that the internet is down, if the internet is down. Doesn't it use the internet to send out notifications, when I am away from home? :0)

 

hi @rasiam

 

you're correct  .. however

I'm just finishing another scene to handle all message/TTS types and re-route accordingly if internet or other services are offline

I'll then be updating the LAN Monitor to use this new single notification service which will send an "internet down" state to a popup and a queue for when it comes back up....

hello!

 

one question, what port is needed for iphone? or can I just specify a port in my router and bind it to my iphones ip? and then enter that portnumber in the VD?

Hi @oceank

Sorry I don't own an iphone. The best way I found is to scan your network and when you find the iphone scan for open ports

I use fing. You will need a port on the device itself.

 

Phones are the most unreliable (depending on what you want to trigger) as they can shut off the wifi adpaters even when they go to sleep.

for instance my galaxy s6 stays connected yet my wifes galaxy s7 switches off the wif1 adpater  and shows offline when you 'lock' the phone.

 

.. hope this helps

Hi @oceank

 

I just scanned my wifes ipad air which may be close to a iphone I scanned the using fing and found port 62078

Is this the same port ?

 

Just enter it in the vd alert for the device = 1 adn it should work.... but as I said be careful phones are funny...

Have you other devices working okay ?

 

[samuel 27]

port number 62078  works for my iphone

 

What if a device doesn't have an open port~ is there still a way, by means of an implemented "Ping" to see if device is online or offline ?

thanks @Sankotronic

Glad you like and thanks also for the icon

 

I'm going to start a section on the first post for ports that people have verified and I can use yours and mine as a start.

[Rafael Suarez 1]

Very good work. Thanks for sharing.
I would like to know if that application can be adapted to determine when a node is sleeping, such as the swipe. To be able to wake up before wanting to do an action with it. Thank you

Hi @Rafael Suarez

Unfortunately that's not possible. 

the scene is either able to connect or not connect, it can't determine the type of connection, such as sleep mode

I'm not sure if there is a fibaro command available that allows a user to determine if the swipe of awake or asleep..

Hi @samuel

 

This is one of the limitations. The scene tries to make a tcpsocket connection but it's not a true ping.

I don't know of any other way to do this with lua  

 

[Rafael Suarez 1]

Thank you very much for replying so quickly. I hope that at some point can be done. I have had problems with swipe, that does not respond to the first command I give it. it is asleep.

Hi @samuel

 

I came across that as well but was told that fibaro's lua interpretation didnt support os.execute and I couldn't get it to work

Hi @Rafael Suarez

Some phones have the same issue with sleep states

Hi @Rafael Suarez,

 

When z-wave devices are sleeping they are not listening to the gateway so there is no way to wake them up that way. Fibaro swipe when battery operated then before giving first command you need to bring your palm in front of it to wake it up (you will hear beep) and then you swipe your command.
