Can I import clients based on MAC address or serial number to MDT server and then specify some customized settings for them? If yes, how to do that?

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

    Per my experience, we can use the MDT database to pre-stage information for your clients and specify their computer names, applications to be deployed and other customized settings. If I have misunderstood anything, please feel free to let me know. Here are some guides for your reference:

    Use the MDT database to stage Windows 10 deployment information

    Windows 8 deployment – Part 8: The MDT Database

    Creating and configuring the MDT Database

    Thanks for your time. Have a nice day!

    Best regards,

    Simon
