### Note when using Thread based Matter devices
212+
213+
When communicating with Thread devices through a non-local Thread border router,
214+
your host must process ICMPv6 Router Advertisements. See the [openthread.io
215+
Bidirectional IPv6 Connectivity code labs](https://openthread.io/codelabs/openthread-border-router#6)
216+
on how-to setup your host correctly. Note that NetworkManager has its own ICMPv6
217+
Router Advertisement processing. A recent version of NetworkManager is
218+
necessary, and there are still known issues (see NetworkManager issue
219+
[#1232](https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/issues/1232)).
220+
221+
The Home Assistant Operating System 10 and newer correctly processes ICMPv6
222+
Router Advertisements.
