Additional read-only fields are present that show the current IP settings
of the 802.11 interface, regardless of whether those settings were
statically or dynamically assigned.
If the NIC in Bridge option is enabled, then 802.11 IP settings become
unavailable.
Similarly, if VLANs are enabled and the 802.11 VLAN ID matches the
Serial VLAN ID, then the 802.11 IP settings are unavailable because
those interfaces are bridged together.
The IP settings in the LAN section or the Serial VLAN section can be
used to configure the transceiver’s IP settings when the LAN and
WLAN interfaces are bridged.
