[HPADM] System Node Name in "btmp" file

A bit of unusualness here, well I haven't see it before.
When doing a 'lastb' command on and 11.0 system, for the first time, an
actual
system's node name showed up in the device field:
 
Login Name Device Date
SDFMD16 <node name> Wed Nov 30 08:14
 
<node name> = system's node name.
The system in this case is a walkup PC on a factory floor used for
inputting shop
floor data via a barcode reader into an MRP application.
 
Has anyone seen this before and is it accepted or is it not supposed to
happen?
Normally I see a "pts/t-something" or "remshd" in the device field.
 
Thanks
