The "channel analysis" of the web interface shows other access points near the device.
Is it possible to let it show names instead of (or in addition to) the BSSID MAC addresses?
I have multiple access points and would like to see their names. /etc/ethers already contains them, e.g.
B8:EC:A3:DE:B0:40 ap-buero
B8:EC:A3:DE:B0:41 ap-buero-5g
80:AF:CA:87:1C:61 ap-kch
82:AF:CA:87:1C:62 ap-kch-5g
94:83:C4:A3:C1:4A ap-wz
94:83:C4:A3:C1:4B ap-wz-2g
94:83:C4:A3:C1:4C ap-wz-5g
While I realize what you're trying to do via /etc/ethers, there's nothing about the host names visible over the air - and simply trying to guess things based on /etc/ethers (keep in mind, there are at least half a dozen other places that could hold this information) doesn't sound like a sensible plan.
The APs don't send host names, I'm aware of that.
And I don't want to guess names, I want to bring my own list of names for known MAC addresses - to better identify them in the list.
What other places could hold this information?
You already do, in ethers?
I mean this remark:
I'd like to know what other places are meant here.
