Howdy!

A quick question, is it possible for one NIC to use a different MAC address on a different VLANs?

The longer version is that my ISP was kind enough to supply us with three modems:

1) 100Mb bridge, with a static IP
2) 100Mb NAT gateway, with a DHCP assigned static IP
3) 15Mb bridge for VoIP, with a DHCP assigned IP

My pfSense box only has one interface, using VLANs to connect to the modems through our managed switch.

#1 and #2 work fine, but I can't get #1 and #3 online together, when the ISP sees the same MAC address on modem #1 and #3, it routes all traffic to one modem or the other, despite the fact that they have different IP addresses.

I'm hoping there's a way to override the MAC address on VLAN for modem #3, but despite the field being available on VLAN interfaces, it doesn't seem to apply.

Just to be clear, if I unplug either #1 or #3, or if I connect #3 to a DHCP-assigned bridge on a different ISP, everything works. The IPs on all three ranges are in different subnets, so there's no gateway conflicts, as far as I can tell it's just the MAC address conflict.

Is there a better approach?
