Infrastructure coordinated media access control address assignment |
摘要 |
Described herein are systems, devices, techniques and products for managing the dynamic assignment of media access control (MAC) addresses to wireless network devices, such as by identifying a dynamically assigned MAC address before, after, or during a wireless association process and communicating the dynamically assigned MAC address to a wireless network device. Also disclosed are systems, devices, techniques and products for preventing a denial of service attack on a wireless access point's association table, such as by requiring devices that associate with a wireless access point to respond to a query from the wireless access point shortly after association. |

1. A system comprising:
one or more processors; and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium coupled to the one or more processors, wherein the non-transitory computer readable storage medium includes instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations including: receiving, at a network device, a frame, wherein the frame is related to a wireless client device, and wherein the frame includes a media access control (MAC) address corresponding to the wireless client device; identifying a designated MAC address for use by the wireless client device; transmitting a response, wherein the response includes the designated MAC address; receiving an association request, wherein the association request is related to the wireless client device, and wherein the association request includes the designated MAC address; transmitting an association response, wherein the association response includes an association identifier for the wireless client device; and updating an association table with an entry for the wireless client device, wherein the entry includes the designated MAC address. |
