Managing your network of Tasmota devices using TasmoAdmin

If you plan to use Tasmota on many devices in your home as I do, the add-on that I will present in this section might be useful to you. It is called TasmoAdmin. This is used to manage devices such as sensors and actuators installed with Tamosta. It scans your network to find Tamosta devices, allowing you to see their status, configure them, and even send firmware updates over the air to one or more devices at once. TasmoAdmin is very handy for me when I need to configure something in particular on a Tamosta device and do not know the IP address it is configured for. It scans and finds the Tasmota device IP for me.

We will install TasmoAdmin with the same procedure used to install other add-ons. I will not repeat the installation procedure; instead, I invite you to try to follow the process presented in the previous sections to install the other add-ons. It starts the same way – looking for Settings | Add-ons.
