+1 for general feature request. Last connection info is in the locationlog table, which tends to be large enough already. What we need is a new table mapping switch (which, throughout PacketFence, is an IP address) to switch hostname. Reports would consult that table. I think Inverse is working on moving switch configuration from flat file to database anyway. It probably makes sense to fold switch hostnames into that effort, rather than do one-off joins today. -- Rich Graves http://claimid.com/rcgraves Carleton.edu Sr UNIX and Security Admin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
