Note If this setting is changed at a later date, all

Use the MAC Address method for a site with a
flat address space and no routers in the topology.
Use IP Address identification for
topologies with routers. For example, where workstations are connected over
multiple VLANs or use VPNs to connect remote sites back to the CN Pro.
Use Host Name identification where you have
a number of remote users who have signed up with a dynamic DNS service, or where
you have configured your internal DNS servers to return a host’s name by its IP
address.
