Can't define wrtbwmon [user_file]

Hello, I’ve tried (and failed) to add an option to define a user file to replace MACs with nicknames, as the wrtbwmon program allows for.

tried by adding this to model/cbi/wrtbwmon.lua local macfile = s:option(Value, "macfile", translate("Nickname by MAC file"))

But that’s as far as I got, I don’t know much about Luci and I have no experience with Lua.

This would be super useful, because these dang Android devices don’t allow you to set your own hostnames!

Cheers

It looks like this in the /etc/config/dhcp file:

config domain
	option name 'Test'
	option ip '192.168.1.167'

While a static ip hostname looks like this:

config host
	option name 'BradleyDesktop'
	option dns '1'
	option mac '1c:1b:0d:e5:60:f1'
	option ip '192.168.1.69'
	option leasetime 'infinite'

specially, i also have the /etc/config/dhcp and as i have 4 routers, the dhcp is only creating when this is acting as dhcp, but i have multiple, so, every router is a dhcp server, depends where the clients conencting …

so, i guess it would be needed to create a kind of serlist on startup of wrtbmon or … the luci wrtbmon can create that on the call or on a config change ?

or on the creation of dhcp …

there is a file: (on my router) /tmp/etc/dnsmasq.conf.cfg01411c

which is having: dhcp-host=20:32:33:70:D8:85,192.168.1.201,IPCam_201,24h dhcp-host=20:32:33:70:4D:17,192.168.1.202,IPCam_202,24h …

can these files be used ? which change would be needed ?
