Broadcast state changes

Open berkinet opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

Mostly thinking out loud here... Does anyone know if the tplink smart plug can automatically broadcast or send changes in relay_state or must it be queried? I don't see any snmp trap support and no place to enter an IP Address for a remote receiver. So, it appears this may not be possible. OTOH, perhaps there is a way to create a local "cloud server" and maybe that might work.

No joy on this so far. It looks like the best I could do is to try and redirect the phone-home packets to a local listener and use packet reception as a trigger to do a status update. Thoughts?

I would just put an R Pi Zero on the network set to poll periodically and resend wherever wanted.
