Is it possible in Mikrotik to associate a name with a static address assigned in the DHCP Server on the Leases tab for a device? I understand that it is displayed there as the “native” name (Active Host Name). And I understand that I can write in comments what kind of device it is. However, comments are not very convenient. Perhaps there is a way on this tab or on some other tab to display connected devices with assigned names?
And if for a PC I can change its name in the settings, then, for example, for a phone, I tried to set a name in its settings, but in the MikroTik Leases list, the name remains something like “android-1xxxxxxxxxxxx.”
Apparently not, see this thread from late 2021: http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/why-so-hard-to-give-friendly-name-to-a-client/154276/37 It’s annoying this functionality doesn’t exist, because it would be extremely useful.
