All my home automation devices use the Z-Wave radio protocol (sockets, lights, shutters, sirens, etc ...) and only one uses the ZigBee protocol: the Philips Hue lamp purchased with my Echo Plus.

I also have other connected objects (Netatmo weather, Netatmo security, Foscam camera, GreenIQ, Harmony Elite) each with their own communication mode.
Mostly all these devices have a set of APIs and, thus, I can manage all these objects from my home automation box Fibaro.

ALL EXCEPT my Philips Hue bulb which is managed ONLY FROM my Echo Plus.

So here's the improvement I'm asking for: be able to locally control ZigBee devices connected to my Echo Plus.
I'm thinking about locally operating API set (192.168..). Locally, which means directly from my local network, without any cloud which could be down.

Here is an example calling a Fibaro API to light a lamp controlled by a Zwave module: "http://192.168.10.xx/api/callAction?DeviceID=296&name=turnOn" where 192.168.10.xx is the local address of my Fibaro box.

I think I am not the only one who ask this improvement and I hope it will be taken into account. This would "open" this ZigBee Hub to existing home automation solutions.
