       uniqueids     whether  a  particular  participant  ID  should  be  kept
                     unique, with any  new  (automatically  keyed)  connection
                     using an ID from a different IP address deemed to replace
                     all old ones using that ID;  acceptable  values  are  yes
                     (the  default)  and  no.   Participant  IDs  normally are
                     unique, so a new (automatically-keyed)  connection  using
                     the  same  ID is almost invariably intended to replace an
                     old one.

I believe it also applies to connections from the same IP address.
