Hi all, some times ago I met this problem, related to possible MAC address collision using if_epair(4). I'm not the first one encountering this issue and 2 PR [1][2] are already filled. There is also a differential review in phabricator [3] that unfortunately shows no progress. Following the approach that hrs@ suggests in [2], I've developed a patch, submitted in [4], and I hope it will be accepted and integrated soon. This patch should also solve, or at least mitigate, collisions that olivier@ noted in [1] Do you know who is the maintainer of this code? I don't know who can review and possibly commit [4]. thanks in advance Best regards, pizzamig [1] https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=176671 [2] https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=184149 [3] https://reviews.freebsd.org/D1858 [4] https://reviews.freebsd.org/D15329
