Hi,
Is ther any API available using which i can get unique id of the device? I want to form a unique id for each device(which sends a request to the server) which i can use for identification of the device on the server. I have found INETMGR_GetMyIp API which returns ip address of the device. Will it be unique for each device? Is ther any other way of forming a unique ID?

Thanks in Advance.

The IP address of the phone is dynamically allocated to the device, so it may change over time. There are no API's to uniquely identify the device.

How about the "szMobileID" field in the TAPIStatus struct returned by ITAPI_GetStatus()? It appears to be the phone number and something else ... anyone know for sure how this number is generated?
