When I use wireless access list and add comment to the mac address in this access list, the comment appears in registration tab. This is cool. Especially when viewed in Dude.
Imagine I use comments for DHCP clients. I could use DHCP on lease script, but many of DHCP clients are wired so it does not have sense to create access list record for them. I would like to go in the opposite way:
Regularly check what clients are connected to wifi. For each client check if the access list record exists.
If not, add it with comment from DHCP static lease record. If yes, just check the comments are the same. If they are the same, do nothing, if not, update the comment.
Before I start to make this script, is there already anyone who did the same? I would rather be inspired by something that already works than writing whole script from the scratch.
And finaly the most problematic part:
Imagine I have more than one AP and the APs are not the same devices like DHCP server. How to get the comments from static dhcp leases on distant DHCP server to be able to update the access list records on the AP?
The goal is simple: To have only one place where comments to mac addresses will be maintained and the distribution will be automatic and pulled by APs if needed. I am not going to implement CAPsMan, as I need to have more virtual APs and I need to have working APs even when the connection to CAPsMan would be broken. From this point of view I see CAPsMan as signle point of failure.
Thank you in advance for your hints.
