Hi everyone,

I'm currently using an Omada Controller with the built-in RADIUS server for portal authentication (WPA-Enterprise) on our network. My goal is to improve user management by being able to correlate each logged-in user (via their unique RADIUS credentials) with their device’s MAC address and track their session data—even if their IP address changes.

My Current Setup:

Controller: TP-Link Omada Controller (OC200 hardware, v5.)

Authentication: Using the built-in RADIUS server for WPA-Enterprise authentication

Clients: Various devices connecting via Omada-managed access points

The Challenge: Right now, in the Clients section, I only see IP addresses and MAC addresses. I want to be able to see which username is associated with each device (MAC address), so I can track usage and manage users more effectively. Ideally, I’d like to have a persistent mapping that remains even if the IP changes. I understand that enabling RADIUS accounting should help with this, but I’m not sure if there are additional steps required in the Omada Controller to display or group these details.

My Questions:

1. How can I configure the Omada Controller to display the RADIUS-authenticated username along with the MAC address and IP address in the Clients list?

2. Is there a way to mass assign or group these associations permanently so that I can easily monitor user activity over time?

3. Are there best practices for combining RADIUS accounting with DHCP reservations (IP-MAC bindings) to ensure consistency and ease of management?

Any detailed guidance, configuration tips, or resources would be greatly appreciated. Thank

s in advance for your help!
