Support for custom MAC addresses on a per-VLAN basis
Closed, ResolvedPublicFEATURE REQUEST

Description

Hi!

I am in a situation where I have two links through a provider that only assigns one IP address per MAC address via their DHCP. Because I do bonding, there is only a single MAC address on the bonding interface, and because of the lack of support for custom MAC addresses on per-VLAN basis, this has been causing problems, unless I use physical interfaces for each link.

I think there should be support for custom MAC addresses on per-VLAN basis in interface configuration modes. If someone can suggest a workaround at the moment, please do :)

A similar situation has also been described on EdgeOS back in 2014: https://community.ubnt.com/t5/EdgeMAX/EdgeMAX-VLAN-MAC-Change/td-p/485755

Thanks!

ip link set dev eth0.1234 address XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX

so we just need corresponding records in node.def
