Configuring the

Ethernet

Address Table

If you have a secondary LAN, you should configure the Ethernet address
table in the designated bridge or WAP on the secondary LAN. This table
contains all the MAC addresses on the secondary LAN that are
communicating with the primary LAN. You must enter the MAC
addresses of all devices on the secondary LAN that do not always initiate
communication.

If you choose not to configure this table, the designated bridge or WAP
may need to flood frames to the Ethernet and radio ports to learn the
path to the MAC address.

These addresses become permanent entries in the forwarding table of
the designated bridge or WAP.

To configure the Ethernet address table

1. From the Main Menu, select Ethernet.

2. Select Address Table. The Address Table screen appears.
