Abstract

Some examples relate to use of a three-address scheme for forwarding frames in a wireless mesh network (WMN). In an example, a node in a WMN may receive an Ethernet packet from a station outside of the WMN. The Ethernet packet may include a first address scheme comprising a destination address (DA) field, and a source address (SA) of the Ethernet packet. The Ethernet packet may be encapsulated in a second Ethernet packet comprising second address scheme. The second Ethernet packet may be encapsulated in an IEEE 802.11 frame comprising a third address scheme.
