AP7 Internel Network Strcture

Is there a way to identify which AP7s are currently using a specific IP address? I have two AP7s, and when I performed a network scan using an app from the App Store, I unexpectedly found a third device that was pingable. I’m trying to determine if this is one of my AP7s or some other malicious device. My question is, when I perform a local network scan to find devices that are currently active, does an AP7 allocate only one device, or is it possible that it’s using two for some reason, perhaps for the MLO feature? Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    The firewalla app will tell which IP address your APs are using. Look under devices and find them.

    The issue is it that there’s an unidentified device using an ip address that’s not listed in the Firewalla app. The other issue is that the Firewalla aps will show that they’re using a LAN address that’s different than the ips that is shown they’re using in a network scan.

    AP7's will only have one IP, you can tap on "WiFi" then access point to get to the details.

    Hi, understood. Even with this set up?

    Main LAN (no wifi) with the access points(i see these ip addresses in the Firewalla app)..

    VLAN1 with WiFi - i see 3 different devices that i have to assume are the APs and possibly Firewalla box.. however these ips dont show in the app.

    So i guess my question is if one has multiple VLANS with different wifi networks corresponding to them, the APS would still show up in a scan right?

    I got it, do you mean firewalla is not showing the IP addresses it uses on the different VLAN's? If it is that, we will make that visible in 1.66.1
