Raspberry Pi Forums

I have a home automation product consisting of a hub and numerous wireless devices that all talk zwave together. The hub connects to a router which eventually talks to my smartphone to allow me to remotely monitor and control my devices. I wish to insert a raspberry pi between the hub and the router so that I can monitor traffic to my smart phone as well as to provide additional control over the devices in my house. Can someone point me to a raspberry pi project that does something like this? I believe that I need to act as an internet client and an internet server at the same time.

I'm not 100% sure I understand what you are trying to achieve ?

Do you want to see the network traffic, and inspect IP packets to see what messages they contain ?

Are you wanting to inject command to the Zwave (presumably a seperate controller) from the raspberry PI?

I have a Zwave, and some r-Pi's. I use one of the r-Pi's to receive text messages and then send commands to the Zwave vera lite controller I have to turn things on or off. I do this with basic scripts and wget to request the URL from the vera lite interface.
