How to Configure IP&MAC Binding on the TL-WR902AC (Standard Router and Hotspot Router Mode)
30167 IP & MAC Binding, namely, ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) Binding, is used to bind a network device’s IP address to its MAC address. This will prevent ARP spoofing and other ARP attacks by denying network access to a device with a matching IP address in the ARP list, but with an unrecognized MAC address.
NOTE:
The IP&MAC Binding function is only applied in “Standard Router” and “Hotspot Router” modes for TL-WR902AC.

An item cannot be loaded to the IP & MAC Binding list if the IP address of the item has been loaded before. Error warning will prompt as well. Likewise, Load All only loads the items without interference to the IP & MAC Binding list.
