PiVPN and Domotz agent

[TonyC]

I have a working installation on a RaspberryPI 3 with Domotz and PiVPN (openVPN server). All is working fine but I've noticed recently that Domotz is now discovering the tun0 interface associated with OpenVPN, which is on a different subnet to the main wlan0 interface. wlan0 is on 192.168.1.0/24 and tun0 is on 10.8.0.0./24 subnet.  Up until recently Domotz ignored the tun0 interface and only reported discovered devices on my WLAN. But since a few weeks backs the tun0 IP address(10.8.0.1) is now being discovered and reports this belonging to the the Domotz agent. 

 

The problem I have is that because tun0 is a virtual interface its MAC address changes quite frequently and so I'm now seeing on a daily basis a new 10.8.0.1 interface being discovered and the previous one's now being marked as down. I therefore, have to remove the old 10.8.0.1 interfaces on a regular basis.

 

I have not made any changes to my setup and so I can only assume that a recent Domotz agent update is causing this new behaviour. 

 

Could anyone advise on whether this is a bug with Domotz, or is there a file I can change so that only the main WLAN0 subnet is scanned?

 

 I have a subscription to the legacy Lite plan on my RaspberryPI as this is all I need for my requirements.

 

Thanks

HI @TonyC,

 

I'm checking internally what happened, but note that the Agent is suppose to monitor any available interface at the host, I assume the engineering team updated the way the agent discover interfaces. I will update this thread soon.

Thanks Henrique, if this behaviour is expected can you find out if there is a way to disable monitoring of the tunnel interface?

 

Cheers, Tony

Hi Henrique, did you get some feedback from your Engineering Team on this subject?

 

Thanks,

 

Tony

I have the exact same problem. Any updates with this?
