It depends on what you have configured in the dashboard (Under SD-WAN -> Addressing & VLANS).

By default, clients are tracked by MAC Address, but they can also be tracked by IP Address or Unique Client Identifier. The following doc actually does a good job of calling out the different situations you might want to use unique identifier or IP, along with the limitations of each.
