Read name by APs

[javier_leal_lil]

Hi!

I have a vSZ with several AP Zone and switch. On my network, since a my dhcp server device, I am triying to read the name from APs but I cant. For the switches I do not have any problems, but with the APs yes. Maybe I have to activate snmp or something like this?

Thanks!

Hi @javier_leal_lil 

To get the hostname correctly we should see DHCP Option 12 (Host Name) field. This is required for the DHCP server to populate that field. Can you please check if the Access Points when sending the DHCP Request packet back to the DHCP server is including this field ? If Yes with the correct name ? 

Best Regards
