Im running DDWRT and it shows all the hostnames for every machine on my lan along with the IP / MAC address and any applicable leases... but not for the hyper-v server or any of the virtual machines in it. For that the name is simply an asterisk.

What gives? It would be nice to see an easily identifiable hostname such as VM3-DHCP instead of having to memorize every IP :(
 
2k8 and 2k8 R2 have very tight default firewall rules. Unless you are allowing name discovery protocol traffic specifically at the OS level, you won't get much from them.

This isn't a virtualization issue, its an OS config issue.
