## Host Control (HC)
|
|
|
|
This is a daemon running on the host machine that allows the supervisor to control certain aspects of the host OS:
|
|
|
|
- Power cycle (restart, turn off)
|
|
- Manage network settings
|
|
- Local updates
|
|
|
|
## Host
|
|
|
|
Our pre-build images are based on [HassOS](https://github.com/home-assistant/hassos) which is based on [BuildRoot](https://buildroot.org/). Any Linux machine can be turned into a Hass.io host by running [the installer](https://www.home-assistant.io/hassio/installation/#alternative-install-on-generic-linux-server).

|
|
## Supervisor
|
|
|
|
The supervisor offers an API to manage the host and running the Docker containers.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration panel
|
|
|
|
The configuration panel lives inside the supervisor but is accessible via the Home Assistant user interface. The configuration panel allows the user to manage the installation. |
