Friendly name instead of MAC address in wireless client list

rizzah

Hi,

 

In UTM it is possible to set a friendly name for each connected wireless client. I cannot find this option in XG, is it possible at all?

    Hi,

    you will need to setup DHCP entries and use clientless users.

    Hi Ian,

     

    I tried what you said, i added all wireless clients to my DHCP server with a static mapping to an IP. Then added a forward and reverse DNS entry in the DNS server for these clients. (I did this on a remote MS DHCP/DNS server and on a local (On the XG) running DHCP server. Then i also added these clients as clientless hosts. But i still see the MAC address under the name. 

     

    I just done this, maybe it has to update something internal first?

     

    Regards,
