Homeassistant.local:8123 inaccessible
Hi, I am quite new to all this so this is some information about my setup and what I’m trying to solve.
I have HomeAssistant setup on a truenas OS server Version 25.10.2.1 (hardware is an old laptop). I can access the webui through the ip address with the port (xx.xx.xx.xx:8123), but not with the http://homeassistant.local:8123 address.
Why I need it to be accessible is the following: I am trying to setup an integration with xiaomi home with HACS. I believe I have set up hacs correctly, I have installed it directly in the config dataset of Home Assistant. However, in order to authenticate and link my account, the url that would need to be accessed is "http://homeassistant.local:8123" and I don’t think I can make the auth go directly to the ip instead.
Any help would be appreciated.
