Sadly in Omada SDN the information provided for devices isn't as fully populated or available, we are limited to just MAC, HostName and that's about it really.

Clicking a device in CLIENTS will show you this on the right side popup

@Philbert So when you get something like this:

or this:

How in the world do you find the device? Go to each of the possible several hundred and search for MAC addresses? On my home network, I have over 100+ devices... on UniFi OS it correctly identifies 90% of them properly, so it makes assigning static IPs or blocking certain devices easy. It at least give you a place to start looking... for example I have 5 Apple TVs in my home well if it shows up as an Apple TV I at least know to go look at those 5 devices rather than searching through every device on the network.

This is what my network looks like on Omada:

This is what some devices look like in UniFi:

How is it that UniFi can identify hostnames/devices that Omada can't? I very seldom see MAC addresses for client names in UniFi.

Is better client identification on the roadmap for Omada SDN?

@Bald_Beaver 

Yeah i had to rename them all as they first connected, was a real pain at the start!

Totally agree that there should be something like UniFi offers.  All i can speculate is that Omada is still only 3 years old now so its quite young and missing features, despite the version being SDCv4

Heard a bit of noise about SDN v5 later this year so hoping that it includes some useful changes like this.
