McAfee Agent can't be bound to a specific IP address if the computer that the agent is installed on has multiple IP addresses. The Agent binds to the first available IP address provided by the operating system.
 

NOTE: Any IP addresses other than the one assigned to the primary Network Interface Card (NIC) on a computer is detected as separate Rogue Computers by RSD sensors.
 

On some operating systems, you can force the computer to report the NIC with the external IP address first (Lan1) and the other as the second (Lan2). This action resolves the problem because the agent automatically binds to whichever the operating system reports as the first interface. For more information about which operating systems this action can be applied to, see the Microsoft article: Configure the Order of Network Interfaces.

You see the sequence of events below on the ePO server when a client system restarts and a different IP address is bound first and used by the AgentSequence of events:
