Abstract

The present disclosure describes a system and method for deconflicting locally administered medium access control addresses (LAMAs). An apparatus includes a memory and a processor communicatively coupled to the memory. The processor receives a request for a client device to use a LAMA and determines that the LAMA is reserved for future use by a first access point. The processor also transmits to the client device a message denying connectivity to the client device using the LAMA.
