• If the wireless access point is rebooted, the table data is lost until the wireless access point
rediscovers the devices.
Note: A wireless network can include multiple wireless access points, all using the
same network name (SSID). This extends the reach of the wireless network
and lets users roam from one access point to another which provides seamless
network connectivity. Under these circumstances, be aware that only the
stations associated with this wireless access point will be presented in the
Available Wireless Station List.
