In any other case, im not sure what is possible.įor starters you will have to install an addon, which will install all the necessary dependencies for you. In case you are using Hassbian, you can do it manually. Raspberry Pi with Hass.io installed (version used in this blog post is 0.78.3).For example you can configure SSL certificates on your Nginx, and only need to encrypt that endpoint, as an SSH tunnel is encrypted by default. You can use all of Nginx' features on your remote machine in an industry standard way without affecting or having to configure anything on your Home Assistant. Everything is self hosted and doesnt require any 3rd party services. This can be used as an alternative for Port Forwarding on your router, and in case of a dynamic IP address, a Dynamic DNS provider like DuckDNS, DynDNS. Then use an Nginx reverse proxy on your remote server combined with your own custom domain to use Home Assistant over the internet.

It provides an alive checking mechanism.Today I will show you how to expose your Home Assistant through an SSH tunnel, and keep it active with autossh.

Even if we can even configure the frequency and timeout for the session keepalives to facilitate the connection-loss detections, it would be nice to fully automate the SSH session creation and reconnection.įor that, a handy piece of software is autossh. Persistent Tunnelsīy the way, an SSH tunnel only exists as long as the SSH connection holds. Also, the host specification allows wildcards.

This will connect to the remote SSH server on 10.1.4.100, using user ‘ baeldung‘, allowing: RemoteForward localhost:8022 localhost:22 In these files, we can specify default configurations to each commonly used endpoint, including forwarding tunnels and proxies: host 10.1.4.100 If it doesn’t exist, which is the default, we’ll have to create a new one. We can use the global ssh client config file (located on /etc/ssh/ssh_config or/etc/openssh/ssh_config) or use our user’s specific configuration file that is located at ~/.ssh/config. That’s why one of the most lovely features of ssh is allowing any command-line parameters in the config files. If disabled, other hosts on the SSH server network might use it.

Override, if enabled, all other related configurations options

Its location varies a little but is usually on /etc/ssh or /etc/openssh. The enablement of sshd, the daemon that serves ssh sessions, is done by editing the sshd_configfile.
