nextDNS CLI client names are wrong
I'm running nextDNS on my firewalla. It runs well, but I'd like to understand why some client names are very different than on the router.
Note, this is CLI, not DoH. So I can't pass along a hostname that way.
Of course I see IP address, but the names are mostly mangled or truncated.
I have enabled
-report-client-info
I see some discussions requesting that the client names be editable in logs. That would solve my probelm. If there is another way, I'd love to know.

One way to add friendly device names to the CLI is to use the hosts file and add all your static local IPs of the devices + any name you want to associate with them. It doesn’t however work if the local IPs of the devices are changing.
Oh, just to clarify the hosts file to edit/add is on the device running the CLI.
