The bridge physical address is the minimum of all the attached devices.
This is done because the STP standard requires it. You can reset it
to be the same as any of the attached devices. This will not cause a
problem unless using STP.

Hi,
Could somebody explain, why bridge uses minimal MAC of the attached devices?
It makes this address instable, variable during bridge life-cycle, which is
