MAC Cloning
A
MAC
(Media Access Control)
address is a unique hexadecimal code that identi-
fies a device on a network. All networkable devices have a
MAC
address. When
replacing another network device with the Router, the installation process can be
simplified by copying the
MAC
address of the existing computer to the Router. To
do this:
1. Click MAC Cloning in the Advanced screen. The “
MAC
Cloning” screen
appears.
2. Enter the MAC address to be cloned in the “To Physical Address” text boxes.
3. Click Clone My MAC Address. The Router will now have the new
MAC
address.
