My server is behind a DHCP-enabled router, and it has two network interfaces, wlan0 and bge0. I want to use them together, so I bind them, plus tap0 to bridge0. But bridge has a random MAC address for each time it was created, which makes me hard to reserve an IP for it (since I need to forward some ports to this server). So I set net.link.bridge.inherit_mac=1, which makes bridge0 to use bge0's MAC address, always. But this causes another problem: the packets sent to bridge0 is also sent to bge0, -- the packets are duplicated! The kernel have to drop half of them. So how can I bind a distinct MAC address to a bridge?
