Can't locate client PC with running virtual machine in wireless network

Fri Nov 11, 2022 11:45 am

Hi, I use CAPsMAN for managing my APs and I'm having a problem finding the host computer for a virtual machine on the network. If the host computer is wirelessly connected to the network and the VM is brigded to the network I can see its virtual MAC address in WinBox in Bridge/Hosts. But I can't find reference to the host's MAC address. So I need to identify the host of the virtual machine which is not possible when connected over wireless.

On the other hand if the host PC is connected via Ethernet (I've got a switch CRS354), there is a reference to VM's MAC address and host's MAC address in Bridge/Hosts and reference to switch port is shown in DHCP Server/Leases. This way I can identify the host, when connected over Ethernet, but not when connected over wireless.

Is there any way to identify the host of the virtual machine over wireless?
