Not get name of device as dhcp.lease can detect

Hi openwrt team,

When I set device for dynamic ip then able find device name in dhcp.lease.
But, when i set static ip to that device where i get static device name like dhcp.lease

Confirm that:

  • You added the following to /etc/config/dhcp
config domain
	option name 'example.lan'
	option ip '192.168.1.xxx'
  • You made sure it has a FQDN (e.g. ".lan")

it possible when static ip is known to us.But, when i don't know static IP address it is possible find entry of that device.

If the device is configured to not use DHCP, then it is not announcing its name, the router cannot know it.
