[Remote-Control] Shutdown, Configure and Update your MagicMirror

yawns

@MagicMirrorPi
Are you talking about MMM-Remote-Control?
It is called remote because you use it to remote manage the mirror. So you can use it on your laptop, smartphone, tablet, … without having to attach mouse/keyboard to the mirror itself

Thanks. That answered my question. I was wondering, how to control the mirror without hardware :)
Another nice implementation is the Skywriter i think with gestures.

Hello, i made the MM2 update and now i can’t access the remote.

ipWhitelist: ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1"],

I can’t insert my ip from my laptop.
I want to access MagicMirror from laptop with Remote Control, but it’s not possible now with this update.

Where i have to insert my ip address in the white-list?
How to insert a range?

I am having the same problem. Does @Jopyth just need to update or is there a bigger issue?

Hi all,

it works.

That is my part of config with the ipwhitelist.

    ipWhitelist: [
                    "127.0.0.1",
                    "::ffff:127.0.0.1",
                    "::1",
                    "::ffff:192.168.1.1/24",
            ],

hope it will help all other user.

I know I probably sound dumb, but what is ipWhitelist, and will mine look different than yours?
Thanks anyway.

@AAPS

if you update to the new magic mirror, this will be a new option in the config.js.

Take a look to the config.js.sample file witch is delivered with the new version of magicmirror.

Cool! Do I just keep it the way it is, but format it differently, or do I have to add anything?

@AAPS

if your ip is from germany and you use ip4, than u can take it like it is.

It has just another format and added “::ffff:192.168.1.1/24”,

I tried that and it didn’t work. Is it because I am in America?
