      I am new to pfSense and was previously using an Asus router for about two years. And one neat little feature I liked was using custom names for the client names associated with the IP address, as seen in the screenshot below. Is there anyway to do this in pfSense? any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

        You can do the same thing on pfSense : go to the bottom of the DHCP server page.
        Add a DHCP static mapping for each device.

        Most of these names are invalid host names as the can not contain spaces.

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??
