The rightmost column displays the host name supplied by the client if one was provided; otherwise it displays the client identifier. (If a host name is displayed, the client identifier is still accessible in a Details pop-up menu. See below.)

Note: The server does not query the client for its host name. Macintosh computers running versions of MacOS prior to MacOS version 8.5 (OT 2.0.1, TCP/IP 2.0.1) do not supply a host name option in their DHCP messages, so no host name will appear in the Served IP Addresses list.
