Hi everybody, is there a feature to see in Luci all connected/attached devices? Can't find it, maybe it must be activated somehow?
In the status page I see just a list of active dhcp leases, one of dhcpv6 leases and another of wireless associated stations. Can't see those devices connected with static IP.
Well, having many vlan I should use nmap from openwrt cli and scan any interface and then the report is not in the web UI. It's strange there is not a feature to check connected devices, almost every cheap router does have it.
Anyway, maybe I'll look for something to customize Luci by myself.
There is no way to reliably determine if an Ethernet-attached device is present, or to query to find all devices on any system. There is no "association" the way that there is with many wireless protocols. There are ways that one can get a good idea of what's attached, but arp tables, IPv6 neighbor tables, L3 or L2 "pings", and the like are only indications.
This has always been a challenge for network administrators. Hence the reason tools like nmap exist. Even nmap won't reveal a non-cooperative host.
