10 months ago Thanks for the post. This feature is already requested in issue #538 and planned to be implemented.
Just for your info, the MAC address vendor info is officially published by IEEE here which will be used as the source for this feature.

10 months ago Thanks for the reply, I will close this issue in favor of https://github.com/TechnitiumSoftware/DnsServer/issues/538 Also great to know about the official MAC vendor list.
Will recommend Technitium to anyone, your software is outstanding!
Hello,
I'm using Technitium since a few weeks now and also replaced my old DHCP server with it, I really have to say it's one of the lightest and most complete DHCP servers I've seen before with Relay and DHCP option support. Such a great tool! I didn't expect such a full blown DHCP server with it.
Still many of my DHCP leases don't show a hostname and I'm sure this is a client behavior. But how about an additional column would be added to the DHCP leases table, which shows the vendor name additionally to the hostname based on the prefix mac address?
For sure some kind of database or information would be needed, I found following list for example: https://gist.github.com/aallan/b4bb86db86079509e6159810ae9bd3e4
Would it be possible to add an additional column "Discovered Vendor" in the DHCP Leases table and following configuration options in the settings?
Just an idea, it would be way easier to understand which client received which IP when the client does not communicate the hostname to the DHCP server.
Keep up the great work!
