Key specifies a unique key for IpAddress. Name-server priority is based on the key of the IP address, with higher priority given to lower keys (lexicographically).

Note

  • This element does not appear in the Properties pane of Windows® System Image Manager (Windows SIM) until you add IpAddress to the answer file.

  • The value for Key is added to the answer file as an attribute of the IpAddress element. The attribute wcm:keyValue is used to identify each unique IP address. For example, you can specify three different IP addresses by using the Key values of IpAddress1, IpAddress2, and IpAddress3.
