Is it possible to enter or change the CLIENT HOST NAME in Hivemanager NG Select, or make NOTES on a client?

I am evaluating several AeroHive APs and Hivemanager, comparing to other vendors to make as election for a large deployment.

Right now in Hivemanager, I have a lot of devices that have undetected client host names, undetected VENDOR OUI, undetected Client OS etc. Usually industrial devices or other odd appliances. Short of me keeping an Excel spreadsheet that tracks MAC Address to the device - can Hivemanager do this simple task?

I have added MAC objects and names to the Objects list, but it seems that only helps when making MAC firewall rules. It does not fix the problem where the monitoring list is filled with tens or hundreds of clients with no names. All I have displayed are MAC addresses.

Other cloud controller solutions I am evaluating allow me to make notes for clients it has seen and tracks them by their unique MAC. I have looked around and not yet found this in Hivemanager,

Thank you,

Unfortunately creating custom MAC objects via the DHCP option 55 parameters of the client would be the only way for us to identify unknown clients and we don't have a way to make notes on particular clients, but I would be happy to submit a feature request for this function if you'd like?
