Understanding containerized HA configuration

I’m a little confused on how my HA is configured. When I ping homeassistant.local it replies with the IP addess of 172.16.3.32, however when I enquire ifconfig at Terminal and SSH, it shows me the ip address for eth0 as 172.30.33.1. Could someone please enlighten me if there are separate ‘layers’ inside HA?

Hi, welcome to the forum.
I guess this is because you are running the container version of HA.

how do I ‘access’ the container?

I don’t know, I have no knowledge/experience of running docker.
Maybe you can change your topic title to make it less general/more specific to get help or find it yourself by searching/reading.

Thanks Nick4, I’ve used HA for a while, however it is only now i’m struggling to control the container. I inquired at the CLI if there is docker but the system says command not found meaning there could be no docker from where i’m looking at. I hope someone could provide more details.

Hi, I know close to nothing about the containerized version of HA and I made an assumption - which could be wrong.
Are you using nginx?

Maybe it’s not a bad idea to reveal some details about your system.
