Device_tracker "tracker_interfaces" option example

[gijs007]

Feedback

The OPNsense device_tracker has an optional feature to only track devices on specific interfaces. The option "tracker_interfaces". However it does not explain how these can be configured / what valid values are, or provide guidance on where these values can be found in OPNsense.

After some testing, I found that only the interface description worked. Using the interface "Identifier" or "Device Name" from OPNsense did not work, oddly enough.

I now set the interface description, although this works fine, it is a user adjustable description. Which means it may accidentally be edited in OPNsense, breaking the integration.

e.g. of a valid config, which can be extended with more listed items:

tracker_interfaces: 
  - "Home_WiFi"
