Hi all,

I have Pi.Alert (along with Pi.hole) running on a RPi4. I recently moved my Dokuwiki instance (running in Docker) onto the same device and now Pi.Alert is complaining about lots of new devices. If I look at the IP addresses I can see they correspond to the network interfaces created by Docker. Is there any way to exclude these networks from Pi.Alert?

Thanks

    If you run both Pi.Alert and Pi-hole, Pi.Alert will get the information on network devices from Pi-hole. The only way of I know of excluding active devices would be adding their MAC addresses to MAC_IGNORE_LIST in pialert.conf.

      After adding about 20 MAC addresses I gave up and just moved pi.alert to my secondary dns server (a pi zero) which has no docker

    Has anyone tried the docker variant of pi.alert? I presume that one must be smart enough to filter out docker ‘devices’

      I have it running in a docker container and the subnet setting seems to work. Also should mention it’s restricted to eth0.

    You can set the subnet to be scanned in the arpnet settings. Restricting the scans to your devices subnet will get rid of all the extra docker IPs.
