IP Address This box is not editable because the IP address is
already assigned (either through DHCP, or statically
through the Ethernet (Wired) settings as described in
“Configuring Guest interface Ethernet settings” on
page 73).
MAC Address 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 an
interface.
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.
