<![CDATA[Differentiate between authenticated user and non authenticated.]]>Hi, i'm currently running mikrotik hotspot + unifi AP.
I'm using unifi AP + home asssitant to trigger several automations based a number of active hotspot clients.

The issue that i'm facing is that unifi AP also lists clients that aren't authenticated in their active clients list. E.g :
User A, B, C
User A and B logged in and authenticated.,
User C only connects to wifi but not authenticated.
The Unifi integration in home assistant would count this as 3 active clients.
And this false positive messes up the automations.

So i was wondering if pfsense could somehow drop the user C from the list with above scenario? Mikrotik couldn't do this.. not even with login timeout option.
