Package: iproute2 Version: 6.1.0-3 Version: 6.13.0-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
ip-link(8) says
ip link { set | change } { DEVICE | group GROUP }
[ { up | down } ]
...
[ addrgenmode { eui64 | none | stable_secret | random } ]
[ macaddr [ MACADDR ]
[ { flush | add | del } MACADDR ]
[ set MACADDR ] ]
so naturally
ip l set tap-vbox macaddr del 76:6a:c6:49:f3:30
should work, right?
Alas it doesn't and it fails with
Error: either "dev" is duplicate, or "macaddr" is a garbage.
which is additionally weird since there's no "dev" in there.
Best,
