Disconnect on virtual AP MAC change

I’ve virtual AP interface vwlan1 which is based on the physical wlan1, both of them have their own SSIDs & subnets. When I change MAC address on the vwlan1 all devices from the wlan1 lost connection too. Is it normal behavior?

Yes.

When you change one simple thing in one of wireless devices, virtual or not, all client disconnect because wlan1 module “reboot”.
