Logs - Rename Devices

It would be tremendously helpful to be able to identify devices in the logs tab that come from NextDNS CLI that are not correctly identified. Would it be possible to rename devices (e.g. from "Device #3HRCE" to "Google Home Mini") to help identify relevant logs? Seems they are randomly named and do not line up with mac address.

    Support having the facility to rename devices or name not identified ones.

    Yes this is really missing, adguardhome has this as well in the config where you can add tags and names per device.

    I note that AdGuard DNS has this feature. You can name a device based on IP address

    I am SHOCKED that NextDNS does not let you rename a device. I have a lot of devices with garbage names or no names that make trying to debug issues nearly impossible. How can this not be a top priority?

    This would be a good feature to have, I don't know why some devices show up with the right name and some just come up as generic.
