How do we get a list of all network devices regardless of whether connected or not?

How do we view, export, or print a list of ALL devices, whether actively connected to the network or not.  We know the router is saving the device info for all devices (connected or not) because when a device reconnects, the information is consistent with the custom name and info we have supplied in the past.  Unfortunately, we can only view or edit the info for devices that are actively connected to the network at the time.  How can we view or edit the full list?

    I could be mistaken, however.....

    it appears that the Advanced Tab->Security->Access Control displays several tables.  If Access Control is enabled, then the user can "check the box" next to a device that is "allowed but not currently connected", then click "Edit" and the regular dialog box opens where the device name, type, etc. can be edited.
