● MAC Address
The MAC address of the device located downstream from the WLAN client from the
perspective of the access point.
● IP Address
The IP address managed for this device by the WLAN client.
● Type
There are two options for the type:
– system
The information relates to the WLAN client itself.
– learned
The information relates to a device downstream from the WLAN client.
Frames sent by the client to the access point always have the MAC address of the WLAN
client as the source MAC address. In the "Learning Table" of the access point there is
therefore only the MAC address of the WLAN client.
If there are further devices downstream from the client, the "Automatic" option should not be
enabled. In this case, the MAC address would be assigned indiscriminately to the first device
that signals over Ethernet. If there is only IP communication between the access point and
the client, the default setting "Own" can be retained. If MAC address-based frames are also
to be sent by devices downstream from the client, you need to select the setting "Automatic",
"Manual" or "Layer 2 Tunnel".
