Am I able to reach other devices over the network from node-red in home assistant if ha is running on a vm and node red is an add-on? My initial testing failed, and I wasn't sure if it's even possible. i'm trying to send commands via node-red to other hosts on the network. I confirmed I can ssh directly to them from home assistant, but I am unable to in node-red. Am I correct in assuming that node-red runs in some type of container, and can only communicate with home-assistant?

Is there maybe a better place to ask this question?

This is the right place. If NR is in a different vm, perhaps there are firewall rules or VPNs impacting it? Are you able to execute a simple http node get, for example? Or use a ping node to test connectivity?
