This property is not valid on computers running operating systems earlier than Windows XP.
Remarks
To ensure that all network interfaces on a network have a unique address, the interface host is responsible for running a "duplicate address detection" algorithm on unicast addresses. The purpose of this algorithm is to attempt to prevent non-unique addresses on the network. This process is defined in IETF RFC 1971.
