Forwarding Database Table
The RangeLAN2 Access Point is a learning bridge. Over time, from watching the
packets on the network, the Access Point determines where the nodes on the network are
-- on the wire or the wireless side of the Access Point. You can view the table of nodes
known to the RangeLAN2 Access Point. This table can hold a maximum of 2048
entries on a RangeLAN2 752x Access Point, and a maximum of 1024 entries on a
RangeLAN2 7510 Access Point. If the Fixed Nodes filter is set to on, this table will
only contain MAC addresses of RangeLAN2 nodes which will change as those nodes
roam.
