Hi,
I am trying to upload an Arduino sketch to ESP on a different VLAN. When the OTA process starts, espota starts a local service on a random port.
With the normal espota process, I can pass in host_port=58181 which I have allowed in routing and it works fine.
When I do this in PlatformIO, it does not and I see the below warning and the upload fails.
Warning! Ignore unknown configuration option --host_port in section [env:ota]
my platform.ini looks like this:
[env:ota]
extends = env:USB
upload_protocol = espota
upload_port = 10.10.57.151
upload_flags =
--host_port=58181
--auth=abc123
It’s clearly listening to the ini file as the auth works ok.
When it runs espota, I see this.
You can see in the second image how it’s just supplied a random port to the ota process.
How can I fix this as having an any<>any in my routing rules is not great.
This platformio.ini works perfectly for me:
[env:USB]
platform = espressif8266
framework = arduino
board = d1_mini
monitor_port = COM5
monitor_speed = 115200
upload_port = COM5
upload_speed = 921600
[env:OTA]
extends=env:USB
upload_protocol = espota
upload_port = 192.168.2.31
upload_flags =
--auth=abc123
--host_port=58181
Result:

The parameter host_port did not work if it contained spaces, like this:
--host_port = 58181
Please make sure that there are no spaces or (invisible) special characters.
