When I list clients
Windows 10 systems come up as the HOST NAME
MACbook Pros.
44aec9d1-a7f6-4756-ac97-2dd741e84b2e
or
MBPUSERNAME
What is Meraki looking for to resolve or relate the name to the host?

It's due to MDNS https://documentation.meraki.com/General_Administration/Cross-Platform_Content/Rename_a_Client's_Hos.... Unfortunately anything that sends MDNS (mostly Macs, but other OS'es can too) the name will show up as the long MDNS string.
Thinking about this sideways, can you configure the name that MDNS sends from the client side?
Is this a MACOS change that all of a sudden the identity of the MACBOOK Pro is unusable?
Does the Jump to MX16.15 possibly catch up with MACOS upgrade or Windows 11?
