## Troubleshooting

### DHCP Browser

The **DHCP Browser** displays devices discovered by Home Assistant using various network methods, such as DHCP, ARP + PTR lookups, and router-based device trackers. When a device connects to the network and requests an IP address via DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), Home Assistant can automatically detect it. All devices discovered through these methods will appear in the DHCP Browser.

To open the DHCP Browser, go to:
{% my config_dhcp title="**Settings** > **System** > **Network** > **DHCP Browser**" %}

### SSDP/UPnP Browser

The **SSDP/UPnP Browser** displays devices discovered by Home Assistant using SSDP (Simple Service Discovery Protocol), a core part of the UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) standard. Devices like smart TVs, media servers, and printers often use SSDP to announce themselves on the network. Home Assistant listens for these broadcasts to automatically detect compatible devices.

To open the SSDP/UPnP Browser, go to:
{% my config_ssdp title="**Settings** > **System** > **Network** > **SSDP Browser**" %}

## Discovered integrations

The following integrations are automatically discovered by the SSDP integration:

## Troubleshooting

### Zeroconf Browser

The **Zeroconf Browser** shows devices discovered by Home Assistant using Zeroconf (also known as mDNS or Bonjour). This method allows devices to advertise their services on the local network without needing a central directory. Home Assistant actively searches for specific services using Zeroconf, and any matching devices will appear in this browser.

To open the Zeroconf Browser, go to:
{% my config_zeroconf title="**Settings** > **System** > **Network** > **Zeroconf Browser**" %}

### Integrations relying on Zeroconf traffic are unresponsive

Some integrations rely on Zeroconf traffic to work, for example, the [HomeKit](/integrations/homekit/) integration.
