Zusammenfassung:Example implementations relate to enforcing privacy addressing. For example, an aggregating network device may include a processor and a memory storing machine-readable instructions to cause the processor to determine a station is using a media access control (MAC) address in layer 3 communications of the station based on information included in a packet received from the station, create a temporary address, and replace at least a portion of a host Internet protocol (IP) address in the header of the packet with the temporary address to hide the full host IP address of the station to enforce privacy addressing of the station.
