Hi, I'm replacing our current USR firewall/router to a current release Bering box. I need to change the wan nic mac address (eth0) on the Bering box to ensure I get the same IP number back from my ISP. I was able to change it if I had set eth0 to static with the additional hwaddress line in the interfaces file:
iface eth0 inet static address 12.34.56.78 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 12.34.56.255 gateway 12.34.56.78.1 hwaddress ether address 00:00:00:00:00:00 but the same line has no effect if eth0 is set for dhcp: auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp hwaddress ether address 00:00:00:00:00:00 How do I set the mac address if eth0 is set to dhpc mode?
