Hi dear folks,

           I am looking for one easy way (¡Kto use it
is easy, to implement it is not easy at all~~) 

to change MAC address of a network card in NetBSD,
let¡¦s say card i82557 of Intel.

I tried to study the source code for i82557 to know
the location of the register on the NIC to write, but
I

am not that good enough to understand those codes,
especially knowing how to write with ioctl. I also

have an idea of modifying ifconfig so that it can set
the hardware address as the linux¡¦s version of
ifconfig.

But again, I was knocked down with ioctl.

           I am not sure how much effort it would take
to write a patch for ifconfig with ¡VH option to set
MAC address 

or any other possible way one can provide me with.

Can anyone help me with this? I greatly appreciate
your help.

 

Best Regards,

Benson
