Identifying a computer using IP address (or some other unique value) vs hostname
In a customer environment where many computers share the same hostname (eg. machines in a large distributed convenience store infrastructure), it would be very useful to be able to register the computer via its IP address or some other unique value, instead of just relying on hostnames/FQDN. Perhaps a feature to allow the customer to select the IP address (or a unique agent registration ID) to be used in our management and operations consoles - without the need for scripting or a convoluted workaround.

Thank you for your feedback. We understand the need to uniquely identify computers in environments where identical hostnames are used across different domains within the same tenant.
Supporting this scenario would require coordinated changes across several DriveLock components, including careful consideration of update scenarios and backward compatibility. Due to the scope and complexity involved, we are currently unable to prioritize this request.
