Can I just use IP addresses?

can i just ignore any and all auto-discovery and simply say “find device X on ip Y” somehow?

thank you.

You can set multiple addresses and combine it with the dynamic keyword for example:

<device id="...">
   <address>tcp://192.0.2.1:22001</address>
   <address>quic://192.0.1.254:22000</address>
   <address>dynamic</address>
</device>

This is excellent! any way to use that pattern via any of the UIs? on android or webGUI?

would be nice to set the LAN, then external Wireguard, then dynamic. Could write a systemd unit that generates this on network target easier than I can get local discovery work on our nat-hell network. …but meanwhile having instructions for users to add this via a GUI would be awesome.

was focusing on the android-fork client and online docs for the webgui. on the actual webgui it mentions

Enter comma separated (“tcp://ip:port”, “tcp://host:port”) addresses or “dynamic” to perform automatic discovery of the address.

edit: this is more than [SOLVED] but i can’t find where to mark it as such.

Yeah that doc focuses on the config file but it’s the same in the GUI(s)
