Since Omada routers are able to act as a DNS servers, it would be helpful to have Omada routers be able to resolve internal IP addresses to DHCP client names. By enabling this reverse lookup (PTR record) capability, downstream DNS servers and systems like Pihole could then be configured for condtitional forwarding to determine the hostnames of DHCP clients.
