Hi Guys,

I am driving the 10 Gigabit PCI Express Intel(R) Network Card I have
with ixgbe driver I download from Intel website.

It brings up both the devices on the Card and works fine.

I would like to write my own MAC addresses to these devices.
I tried used the ethtool to write the MAC addresses.
both these devices come up as eth8 and eth9.

I found that I have to use eth8 to writes MAC both(eth8 and eth9)
devices. I am using following offsets to program the MACs. Am I doing
it right?

    OFFSET1=0x33C    // MAC for eth8
    OFFSET2=0x360    // MAC for eth9

I write each byte in a script using something like:
ethtool -E eth8 magic $magic offset $offset value 0x$value

Any pointers are much appreciated.

Thanks
bhanu
