MAC Adress wrong

Hi,

the AP are using a wrong MAC. When I use the Mac printed at the back, the AP are getting their fixed IP, afterwardes they are flashed, and then they have a wrong MAC and nothing is working any more.

Whats up here?

The MAC is not wrong as the APs own multiple MAC addresses, one for ethernet and up to 8 for wifi. The one printed on the label is the base mac address. Please have a look at [1] for further information.

But please print the correct MAC onto the AP in the future.

it´s really annoying to have the "wrong" mac adress on the lable. Why don´t deliver it with the 8 flashed already?

The MAC Address on the back is the MAC address of the LAN interface, so it is the correct MAC Address. As Andreas already told, the AP has 8 Additional MAC Adresses, one for each SSID. I can confirm that everything is working fine on my side.

The Mac on the back will Be the Mac for first ssid, so it is not the LAN Mac.
