1.3.8 AP-51xx MAC Address Assignment

For both an AP-5131 and AP-5181 model access point, MAC address assignments are as follows:

•

WAN - The access point MAC address can be found underneath the access point chassis.

•

LAN1 - WAN MAC address + 1.

•

LAN2 - A virtual LAN not mapped to the LAN Ethernet port. This address is the lowest of the
two radio MAC addresses.

•

Radio1 (802.11bg) - Random address located on the Web UI, CLI and SNMP interfaces.

•

Radio2 (802.11a) - Random address located on the Web UI, CLI and SNMP interfaces.

The access point’s BSS (virtual AP) MAC addresses are calculated as follows:

•

BSS1 - The same as the corresponding base radio’s MAC address.

•

BSS2 - Base radio MAC address +1

•

BSS3 - Base radio MAC address +2

•

BSS4 - Base radio MAC address +3
