Help - Homeseer Z-NET + ser2net + socat, exposing it to docker container

Configuration
1

Hi,

I would like to use a homeseer Z-NET as my homeassistant z-wave device.
For the ease of updates and integrations, I went with hass.io install on a debian VM(docker CE etc…).

I am using socat to connect to homeseer z-net. Using this guide

So now I have a serial device sitting in my /dev folder as /dev/ttyUSB01
Unfortunately, it seems that this device is not visible to the hass.io. Does anyone have any idea how to expose this device to hassio? Normally with docker, you would add a device flag but I am not quite sure how to do this with Hass.io

Have you already tried the config for zwave ?

This might get you going.

Hey, thanks for the reply. So the issue is that this is not a USB device per se. I am not plugging anything in. By the time Hass.io supervisor starts up the /dev/ttyUSB device is already there. So hass.io doesn’t seem to see it in the hardware list.
