I want to create an automation that checks if a device with certain ip is available in my network trough nmap or similar whenever my front door is opened or closed. Googled it but can’t find a working nmap flow. Any help?
I use ping https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/ping/
I have automatons based on ping binary sensors.
I have my kids computers on smart switches, so when they turn off their computers by shutting them down after the lights go off I do a check over 10 mins to ensure it is shutdown, then I turn the outlet off.

Thanks for the answer.
I tried ping configure on node red and that did the trick. Problem now is I’m not getting how can I switch home/not_home on a device_tracker
