You mean, how I actually read what's specified, and how it sometimes
doesn't fit in with your assumptions?
You mean how I posted chapter and verse from the IEEE 802-2001 spec
which specifically says that having different MAC addresses for each
network port on a machine (and in fact for each network port on a
multi-port LAN card) is not only *allowed*, but *recommended*?
