Grab that exchange again with the -n flag to tcpdump. Include the MAC

Here it is:

Did you mean get the MAC addresses from tcpdump?  I didn't see the
cable modem box's MAC addresses in the dump file.

MAC address of OpenBSD PC's external NIC: 00:20:78:1f:00:af

Two MAC addresses listed in cable-modem box's admin screen:
00:0B:06:BC:7B:0A (labelled "Self")
00:0B:06:BC:7B:0E (labelled "Learned").

From the way they're labelled, I'm guessing the former is the cable-
modem box's external address and the latter its internal address.
Not sure how to confirm that guess.
