Cloning the address of a wired device

Enabling Ethernet MAC cloning

Configure Ethernet MAC cloning as follows:

1.Select Wireless > Bridging. The Wireless bridging page opens.

2.Under Ethernet MAC cloning, enable one of the following options:

Discovered MAC address: When this option is selected, as soon as the M111 detects a wired device on Port 1, it assigns the wired device MAC address to the Wireless port and re-associates using the current station profile.

MAC address: When this option is selected, the M111 re-associates with the current station profile using the specific MAC address which you define.

3.Select Save.

Wireless access to the M111 when MAC cloning is active

A limitation of MAC cloning is that once the cloned MAC address is used to establish the wireless connection, the M111 itself is no longer accessible through the wireless connection. Not only does this disable wireless access to the management tool by administrators, but also blocks services operating on the management tool such as:

Scheduled firmware updates or scheduled configuration file backup/restore operations

SNMP agent response and notifications

System time updates via a time server (Time server client)

DHCP client which updates the M111 IP address when its DHCP lease expires

To resolve some of these limitations, you can use the management traffic interception feature.
