Firewalla Purple/Unifi Controller: No IPs shown in UC for Wired Devices

I noticed that my Unifi Network Controller (running on a separate Ubuntu machine) doesn't display IP addresses for anything wired, just the wireless devices. Is that something to do with the Unifi settings or with the Firewalla?

Everything works great, it's just more of a curiosity/annoyance than anything. 

Thanks!

  Here's an abbreviated snapshot of my setup for reference.

  are you running the Firewalla in simple mode? for the items not displaying, are they not running?

  I'm running it in Router mode. Don't mind the image above, it's not technically accurate. :) It should be: 

  Google Fiber --> Firewalla (WAN) / Firewalla (LAN) --> Unifi Flex Mini (Service Panel) 

  That Flex Mini branches to the UAP and additional Flex Minis, all hardwired. 

  The hardwired devices for which the IP addresses aren't displayed are online and running. I can see the IP on the device, but I don't see the IP reported in the Unifi Network Controller, which is weird.

  Also peculiar, when I list my client devices in UNC, not all of them have a "Network" applied. Even devices of the same make/model that appear on the right/same VLAN. Again, the devices all work fine, just a weird annoyance.

  Is the issue you are having just unifi software not able to display correct information? your devices still able to communicate to the internet? if it is, then likely an issue with unifi

  That is correct. It's not causing any problems with connectivity, just weirdly missing.

  The issue is highly unlikely to be related to Firewalla
