Create a lookup table to map IP addresses to device names and use the lookup command.

Or use DNS lookup.  Note, this usually does not with internal addresses.

| lookup dnslookup clientip as ip output clienthost as dns

Unfortunately I am working with internal addresses. Would you have something that works with internal IPs. This a good search though. I will keep it for the future.
