Extra Information
Users could pull out information such as Route table, ARP table, MAC table, Bridge table
or STP available in the drop-
down list from system. The “Refresh” button is used to
retrieve latest table information.
Route table information:
Select “
Route table information
” on the drop
-down list
to display route table. The access point could be used as a L2 or L3 device. It
doesn’t support dynamic routing protocols such as RIP or OSPF. Static routes to
specific hosts, networks or default gateway are set up automatically according to
the IP configuration of system's interfaces. When used as a L2 device, it could
switch packets and, as L3 device, it’s capable of being a gateway to route packets
inward and outward.
ARP table Information:
Select “
ARP Table Information
” on the drop
-down list to
display ARP table. ARP associates each IP address to a unique hardware address
(MAC) of a device. It is important to have a unique IP address as final destination to
switch packets to.
Bridge table information:
Select “
Bridge Table information
” on the drop
-down list
to display bridge table. Bridge table will show Bridge ID and STP's Status on the
each Ethernet bridge and its attached interfaces, the Bridge Port should be
attached to some interfaces (e.g. eth2, ra0~ra6 and wds0~wds3).
Bridge MAC information:
Select “
Bridge MACs Information
” on the drop
-down list
to display MAC table.
This table displays local MAC addresses associated with wired or wireless interfaces,
but also remember non-local MAC addresses learned from wired or wireless
interfaces.
Ageing timers will be reset when existing MAC addresses in table are
learned again or added when new MAC addresses are seen from wired or wireless
interfaces as well. When time runs out for a particular entry, it will be pruned from
the table. In that situation, switching packet to that particular MAC address will be
dropped.
