Hi Christophe,
The host name information into ntopng comes from the DHCP, MDNS and
NetBIOS. Moreover, if you enable DNS resolution (see -n option), ntopng
will also decode/perform DNS queries to resolve host names.
When the DHCP lease expires, your clients will perform a new DHCP
request with hostname info and ntopng will update the client host name.
Regards,
Emanuele

Dear all,
On the host detail panel, some time the Name and Further Host Names/Information
fields have different hostname.
1/ Where these information come from ? ( DNS requests, ... )
2/ We use DHCP server for laptop. How to configure NtopNG to refresh the data
when the lease has expired, or is it Laptop configuration issue to update the
DNS records ?
Thx & rgds,
Christophe.
