There is no existing driver API to add MAC addresses in FreeBSD, which is
Hi guys,
In my case, my NIC driver is strictly for ethernet, if not Adrian's idea
would be a phenomenal solution for my issue, but maybe it's useful for me
in the long run, so thanks for providing some insight.
As for if_vlan.c, I verified that in the case when NIC's MAC adress is
modified, it up
