On 22 Oct 2023, poindexter FORTRAN said the following...
pF> It does have a nightly report that gets emailed that shows new devices
pF> that connected in the last 24 hours - it's how I realized that iphones
pF> and ipads by default randomize the MAC address.

hey that's pretty slick. i think i'm going to implement that on mine too.

not sure what i think about the iphone MAC addresses.. great for privacy on public networks but that's pretty annoying for the network admin if that person is me lol

> not sure what i think about the iphone MAC addresses.. great for privacy on
I have a LAN for myself at home and then a LAN for the rest of the family
(including a separate virtual VLAN) and this is one of the reasons.

My smartphone can be configured to use random MAC on public networks and staticMAC at home.
