Windows 7 / Getting Started

Applying the Properties to Individual Computers

After you select the methods for identifying individual computers, determine which properties and corresponding configuration settings you will apply to each destination computer. These configuration settings typically apply to only one computer because the configuration settings are unique to that computer. In instances in which a configuration setting is being applied to several computers, use group-based processing rules.

Properties that are typically applied to individual computers include:

  • AssetTag
  • HostName
  • IPAddress
  • OSDNewMachineName
  • SerialNumber

If a group-based setting has a higher priority and the configuration setting is found in that group, the same configuration setting for an individual computer is ignored.
