Two “ether”s there but I assume that’s a copy and paste issue?
No, it's just me being stupid and careless... ;)
Ok, it works great both in the jail and in the host.
I've put the ether address in the /etc/start_if.epairxx files, as I
think it should be supposed to be.
Thanks a lot for your support!
Giulio.
I've tried manually, in the rc.conf file
(ifconfig_epair0b="ether..."), and in the /etc/start_if.epair0b file,
but neither of these three ways actually work to set the mac address
of the epair interface within the jail.
On the other hand, no problem setting the mac of epair in the host...
And that’s what you should do. Despite epairs being virtual
interfaces, think of them as hardware that you are only “loaning” to
the vnet-jail but don’t want the jail to mess with all the hw settings.
And you probably want to change the ether addresses on both ends anyway.
