• Automatically map devices to network managed switches.
• Securely connect to remote devices on the network using http/s, RDP, Telnet, SSH and other TCP/IP protocols.
• Perform network diagnostics, such as WAN and LAN bandwidth, error analysis, packet lost, Device Response Time and more.
• Latency and route analysis and tracing.
• Remote power control (through PDU, PoE, Wake-On-Lan, Software Reboot).

⁠Run and Configure

On a Linux platform, start the Docker container as a background service:

docker run --network=host --cap-add NET_ADMIN --publish 3000:3000 -d domotz/domotzpro-agent-amd64

Once the Domotz Agent has been started in the Docker Container connect to the host IP on port 3000 and follow the instruction to configure the Domotz Agent. E.g.

http://172.16.10.155:3000

(assuming 172.16.10.155 the IP of the Host)

For Mac and Windows platforms see the notes.

⁠Notes

Given that the configuration of the Domotz Agent is written on a file on the local storage, we recommend mounting the following folder as an external volume (on the host server):

/opt/domotz/etc

In this way, even if you destroy the environment and rebuild the container, keeping the configuration files in the host will ensure that the Domotz Agent restarts with the same configuration.

Alternatively, you can force the Docker Container to start always with the same MAC address (e.g. "docker run ... --mac-address 02:42:AC:12:00:03 ..."). In this way, when the Domotz Agent restart, and you will be required to re-configure it with your account, you will not been asked to create a new entity, but you will be allowed to RESUME the configuration from the previous Domotz Agent.

On Mac and Windows platforms the container is not able to discover devices and monitor them on the hosting network. However, you can monitor the Docker Daemon network and the other containers running on that.

To launch the container and start monitoring your Docker network you can simply type:

docker run --publish 3000:3000 -d domotz/domotzpro-agent-amd64
