Hi,
I'm on my way to home automation.
I was able to manage socket and bulb via ip, but not via the name.
I set Alias mode, the name and the ip range but I get "Error: tapo device info not found."
What I'm doing wrong?
Thanks for any advice!
Paolo

Hi.
Thank you for using this node-red-contrib-tplink-tapo-connect-api.
I think this problem is that the DNS server in the network is not able to "resolve names".
Please make sure that the alias you set up returns the IP address with the ping command.

e.g.
ping aliasName 64 bytes from aliasName(::1): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.094 ms 64 bytes from aliasName(::1): icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.103 ms 64 bytes from aliasName(::1): icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.165 ms
