We have an AirBridge Total at a customer site with a Linksys broadband gateway behind it. For illustration purposes, let's say the AirBridge's management IP is 10.1.2.3, and the customer's NAT gateway is 192.168.1.1. On our router that feeds the wireless network, the ARP cache shows that both 10.1.2.3 and 192.168.1.1 are associated with the SmartBridge's hardware address. The Linksys's hardware address does not appear in the ARP cache - instead, the SmartBridge's MAC address appears in its place. Is this normal, and if so, why is it done this way?

This is normal. The airBridge is a single MAC unit. Think of it as the aB doing MAC-level NAT.


If you need transparent bridging, use an airPoint in client bridge mode as CPE and an access point that supports "address 4" as AP.
