I've fixed a few problems with them. I can't recall if a bogus MAC address is one of them. You must have gotten this message from -current. : FYI, this is a bogus station address. There are two bits in an : ethernet address that have special meaning. If bit 0 in the first : octet is set, then the address is a multicast group address rather : than a unicast address. (Hence ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff is technically a : special case of multicast.) If bit 1 in the first octet is set, : the address is locally defined rather than globally assigned. They look bogus to me too. I've made a number of changes to if_ed that didn't make it into 6.0 of late. Maybe he should try those to make sure I got it right. I managed to get the ed interface working on an embedded board that we have at work. It is down right now, most likely because I didn't turn it on after putting the system back together tonight. I'll give it a spin tomorrow. Warner
