Phillips hue bridge

Hi everyone. Quick question. I have a phillips hue bridge and the C8. We had internet interruption for a few days. I've noticed none of my lights worked while the internet was down.
My question is. Is there a way to run philips hue locally? Or should I just connect the bulbs straight to the C8 hub?
Thanks.

The Hue Bridge should work locally, and Hubitat's interface to the Hue Bridge certainly does. Was your Hue Bridge accessible on your LAN by some means during this time? (The Hue mobile app should work locally, at least if already set up--or at least it used to.) Or was your Internet being down also causing problems with some all-in-one modem/router/switch device that the Hue Bridge may have been connected to, causing network connectivity problems for it?
