Carl Levine I see this is marked as launched, but when I expand details on a roaming client, I don't see the device serial number listed. Is this feature going to be rolled out gradually?

Nicholas Boyd: We display the Client ID (GUID) that is assigned by DNSFilter, unique to the device. Device serial numbers are not included in the EDNS metadata payload, so we are unable to render that in the view.

Nicholas Boyd
Carl Levine, Am I missing something about the post? I see it talking about displaying the device serial number to help better identify devices because the hostname is unreliable, especially for Macs whose hostname is tied to the device name, which is something users can manually change

Luke Could you clarify what you mean by device serial number? Do you mean asset tag (e.g. Dell Asset Tag)? Roaming Client ID? Something else?
