# ip link add link eth0 name test type vlan id 42 # macchanger -r test Current MAC: 54:ee:75:49:b1:ae (Wistron InfoComm(Kunshan)Co.,Ltd.) Permanent MAC: 00:00:00:00:00:00 (XEROX CORPORATION) New MAC: ee:a1:b2:41:01:d6 (unknown) # macchanger -p test Current MAC: ee:a1:b2:41:01:d6 (unknown) Permanent MAC: 00:00:00:00:00:00 (XEROX CORPORATION) [ERROR] Could not change MAC: interface up or insufficient permissions: Cannot assign requested address I think this should work; macchanger should detect that it's dealing with a VLAN interface, get the permanent MAC from the parent interface, and use that when -p is given.
