Field Description
Location Description of where the access point is physically located.
MAC Address Media Access Control ( MAC ) address of the access point.
A MAC address is a permanent, unique hardware address for any device that represents an interface to
the network. The MAC address is assigned by the manufacturer. You cannot change the MAC address.
It is provided here for informational purposes as a unique identifier for the access point.
The address shown here is the MAC address for the bridge (
br0 ). This is the address by which the AP
is known externally to other networks.
To see MAC addresses for Guest and Internal interfaces on the AP, see the Status, Interfaces tab.
IP Address Specifies the IP address for the access point. Each IP address is a link to the Administration Web pages
for that access point. You can use the links to navigate to the Administration Web pages for a specific
access point. This is useful for viewing data on a specific access point to make sure a cluster member is
picking up cluster configuration changes, to configure advanced settings on a particular access point, or
to switch a standalone access point to cluster mode.
