Send IP to JSS more frequently

[ericbenfer]

We have laptops that move around and change the DHPC IP address frequently.
Is there a way that recon could run every 15, but just send the updated IP
to the JSS?

Often the IP in the JSS is very stale.

You could create an ongoing policy that runs offline that runs every 15
minutes scoped to the desired systems and runs this command on the advanced
tab:

/usr/sbin/jamf log

The log part just updates the IP address to the JSS.

Another possibility would be to use the information in the resource pack to
have the computer update its IP address on every network state change.

Besides this, if you have a scheduled task like an every15 or every30 or
whatever, that should also be updating the IP address on the JSS.

Like a launchd on state change. Check for IP change. If IPs changes, send IP

I get this a lot. Looking at this thread: https://jamfnation.jamfsoftware.com/discussion.html?id=2193 the IP address should update by itself each time the device checks-in although it doesn't seem to work for me.

I guess /usr/sbin/jamf log is still the way to go.
