MAC to IP Address /hostname when disabled DHCP on the AP

[kroon040]

Hi,

I have my edgerouter-x flashed with openwrt, and there I have de DHCP and DNS on.

I now also have my Aruba AP-105 flashed with openwrt, and there I disabled DHCP and DNS as dns server

The question I have is I only see the on the AP the associated clients MAC address, but I don't see the IP adres or the hostname.

Has somebody have a solution for that? Maybe grab the dhcp.leases , once every minute and compare it to the current connected clients and write this entries to the host file in this AP?

Second device not getting DNS entries from first device to show in Associated Stations

I have two OpenWRT devices. One acts as the Router and is connected to the modem, the other device is wired to the Router (in a LAN port on both sides) and acts as a simple AP. The Router does DHCP and has a list of all clients including hostname. The AP doesn't do DHCP, as all clients get their addresses from the Router. Everything is in a single subnet and the Router IP is set as the DNS server and the Gateway on the AP so the AP should be able to get hostnames from the Router. At least that'…

to get ARP to IP relation ship, you can use fping package as cronjob (tries to ping whole subnet).

That's the trick, uncheck the filter private , and created a cronjob every minute to scan with fping the subnet. Thnx
