Description
In environments where there are multiple different ARP sources, it is possible the appliance may not display or use the most recent IP address when matching hosts/adapters with policies or device profiling rules.

If the L3 polling (mac to IP resolution) returns multiple IP addresses either by the same or different L3 devices, then all will be displayed.

Once only one IP is returned from L3 Polling, then only one will be displayed in the Host View.

Scope
Version: 8.x.
