LabStats identifies and tracks stations using the MAC Address. In most cases, a MAC Address is unique to the machine that uses it, and since it is a physical part of the motherboard, it cannot change under normal circumstances. This makes it the best identifying value for us to use.
To view the information included in LabStats, click on a station name or icon to load the Station Info page. This page displays the station’s ID, name, description, group name, and any associated tags.
