#1766: wlanconfig ath0 list doesn't display the correct mac address after an
address change

Reporter: dyqith | Owner:
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone:
Component: madwifi: driver | Version: trunk
Keywords: | Patch_attached: 0
-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
Note: I'm not following the mac changing procedure from here:
http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/ChangeMacAddress
since I only wanted to change one VAP's MAC and not all of them.
I'm using the "ifconfig ath0 hw ether <mac> "
After bringing down the interface, changing the mac, and bringing the
interface up, and
looking at "wlanconfig ath0 list", the mac address for ath0 is not
changed.
This may be because the ath_set_mac_address() doesn't update the iv_bss's
mac address.
Anybody else see this as a bug?
I don't have the time or the knowledge to go and add a fix for this.
Anybody up for it?
