NETGear GS310TP MAC Address
Using the GS310TP, I often see two MAC addresses originating from the switch. One ending in 7C, and one ending in 7E. I see the 7C MAC Address labelled on the back of the device, but not the 7E MAC ...
It’s work as design.
For smart switches, we will allocate 4 MACs to them.
Base MAC: Management.
Base + 1: L3 protocol use.
Base + 2: L2 protocol use.
Base + 3: Reserve for future use if necessary.
Based on the product specs and features implemented, this reads wrong to me. YeZ something to check for the switch engineering.
