In the past I had a PC named HOSTA and it was working in a subnetA. Then I format this PC, and now its name is HOSTAVM and now its working on subnetB. If I look in Lansweeper I have 2 registries. One for PC named HOSTA and a Seconf for PC HOSTAVM, where HOSTA doesnt exist any more. Can Lansweeper automatically erase HOSTA from its database?.
The same for the example that we mention earlier with VOIP Phone. If I give the device an specific name and later it changes its IP you say that I will see on lansweeper 2 items. One with the name and old IP and one with the same name and new IP. Can Lansweeper erase automatically the old registry (device with its old IP)?

To do this before re-installing the computer, go to the lansweeper configuration tool/computers/right click/rename the computer.
This keeps all custom information intact.
Another possibility is to remove the old computer from active directory and use the auto-cleanup features.

As the case we use as an example, I found a lot of machines, that no longer belong to my domain.

I found at least in one of this devices, that the ip is from an IP phone, and when I look at DNS Server this IP is asociated to a PC, that I supposed sometime it has this IP and for a problem (I dont really know wich) DNS doesnt refresh the data.
I see that I can edit device and set the name that I´d like. But this name will be associate to device or to IP?. What happens if I set for example Bernardo´sphone as the name of this devices and tomorrow it changes its IP?. When I look for this name I will see its new IP?

I was making some tests and I found that some devices in this list are really IP phone. Its hostname is wrong. I need to know how lansweeper works to understand the mistake. It founds the devices and then ask to DNS for the hostname?.
It asks dns.

You will see a new phone with the dns name and the old phone with the old IP.

If I exclude their IP, then I can see the PC configuration and I cant work with it.

For a pc to be found as a pc ports 135,445 & 139 must be open, then it will be detected as a windows computer.

Can I avoid that no VOIP devices appear under VOIP reports?
