Key specifies a unique key for an IP address.

Note
  • This setting does not appear in the Properties pane of Windows® System Image Manager (Windows SIM) until you add IpAddress to the unattended installation 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 value of 1, 2, and 3.
