I don't know answers to all of yours but the couple I do know...

- The fixed DHCP addresses are found under Client Devices. Click the Globe icon above the search box (To the right of the binoculars) to get the DHCP blade. All fixed reservations are listed, even for offline devices.

-For ACLs I've had great success with their new object based model that I believe came in Network 9.3. Settings > Policy Engine > Objects

I'm curious which devices you're using for both the gateway and switching equipment.

This was almost the first thing I tried. It says "No Connected Clients" "Add new clients to see their usage and application data." For fun, I added a made-up client using that UI and there are still no clients. Oh, and the dialog to add a client doesn't ask which "network" to add it to, which is one of several examples of UniFi internal schema not matching reality. (Have fun trying to track down a client that has recently existed on two different VLANs. UniFi clearly has some fundamental architectural problems here.)

Huh, cute. This one is aware of VLANs. I wonder if it actually works well -- given the number of times I've seen UniFi misapply various security rules, I'm skeptical, but it would be handy if it actually works. It would be extra nifty if it worked seamlessly across wired and wireless networks.
