My next attempt was to do the other way round and make lagg to use wlan0 mac address instead of em0's. but even doing this my wireless interface ended up not working.
Strange enough, this works for me. My laptop has a bge interface. Maybe that's relevant.

And configured it to use wlan0 mac address on rc.conf: ifconfig_em0="ether 60:67:20:c5:2d:48 up" wlans_iwn0="wlan0" ifconfig_wlan0="WPA" cloned_interfaces="lagg0" ifconfig_lagg0="up laggproto failover laggport em0 laggport wlan0 DHCP" and it's now working as expected.
I can confirm this is exactly what I've been doing for a while on my laptop. As noted before I did not need to patch the kernel to have this working.
Other than that, I believe if wlan interfaces cannot have their mac address changed, ifconfig should return an error when user attempts to do it, and if_setlladdr() should do the same. Thoughts?
I agree returning some error code would be nicer on users. -- Guido Falsi <madpi...@freebsd.org> _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
