It would be nice if all dumb AP's were to report their iwinfo and interface statistics under their core-router's name. This would reduce clutter on monitor and make for a quicker overview be just having to look at one set of statistics. For example, take a look at habersaath.

To do this, the AP's will have to have a unique name for the interfaces, such as ap1-wlan2-ff instead of wlan2-ff. Also, the /etc/config/collectd would have to look like this:

config globals 'globals'
	option Hostname 'core-router' # Change the name here as appropriate
	option Include '/etc/collectd/conf.d'

Note, if this is done, then such statistics from the dump AP's such as load, memory, ping and uptime will be senseless. Also, statistics from the dumb AP's for the interfaces br-dhcp, eth0, eth0.40 or whatever else will also be pointless. In fact, any of these will just cause the core-router's statistics for these types to be garbled nonsense.

We should probably rather consider building better dashboards to archieve that?
