I had a strong feeling that a ticket for that was already filed but I 
couldn't find it so I just filed one:

#1172: More information / metadata about switches (network devices)
http://www.packetfence.org/bugs/view.php?id=1172

The Alias idea bears the most bang for the buck. Anyone interested 
should consider sponsoring the feature otherwise I'm afraid our 
priorities are not there at the moment.

Thanks for the idea!
