If the access point is already deployed and running on the network, you can display MAC
address assignments by using the
show ap status command in the Mobility System
Software (MSS) CLI.
All MAC addresses for an access point are assigned based on the base MAC address of
the access point as described in
Table 6 on page 10 .
Table 6: MAC Address Information for WLA Series Access Points
Description MAC Address Type
The access point has a base MAC address. All other addresses are assigned based on this
address. Access point base MAC address
• The MAC address of Ethernet port 1 is the same as the access point base MAC address.
• The MAC address of Ethernet port 2, if there is an Ethernet port 2 on the access point, is
the same as the access point base MAC a 1. The WLA322 access points have
only one Ethernet port.
Ethernet port MAC addresses
•
The MAC address of the 5-GHz radio is the same as the access point base MAC address
+ 1.
• The BSSIDs for the SSIDs configured on the 5-GHz radio end in odd numbers. The first
BSSID is equal to the access point base MAC a 1. The next BSSID is equal to the
access point base MAC a 3, and so on.
5-GHz radio and SSID MAC
addresses
• The MAC address of the 2.4-GHz radio is the same as the access point base MAC address.
•
The BSSIDs for the SSIDs configured on the 2.4-GHz radio end in even numbers. The
