> 1. How do I brake the MAC Address up into bytes?
I'm not exactly sure what format you're getting the MAC address in, but
it looks like you're just splitting it into two-character chunks... To
split that, you could do:
my $c = 0;
while($mac =~ /(.{2})/g){
$mac[$c++] = $1;
}

perldoc perlfunc | grep binmode

To convert to hex, you can use the aptly named hex() function, and check
out perldoc -f sprintf using the %d option to convert to decimal (or %x
to hexadecimal).
Hope that helped a bit, please provide more specific info if I'm
misunderstanding your questions.
