I'm not sure about 9.6 SP1, but 9.5 SP3 and below in the management console, under configuration "Bare Metal Server". Even if its workstation, you add the name of the device and an identifier such as a MAC address or multiple identifiers and when the miniscan happens it will use the record you created. When Windows deploys it will automatically generate a name WIN-XXXXX because the ldhostname variable is empty because no record exists. The other screenshot is the record, that should be using the MAC address as the name. If they have no console access, then I would suggest a VBScript at WinPE startup to prompt the tech for the device name and run the miniscan with the device name as a variable.
