Hi all,

after re-reading this thread:

https://freebsd-arm.freebsd.narkive.com/joXO4IKH/how-to-change-mac-address-on-rpi-b

I gave it another try with /etc/start_if.ue0, but this time:

--------------
/sbin/ifconfig $1 down
/sbin/ifconfig $1 link b8:27:eb:09:cb:7d
/sbin/ifconfig $1 up
--------------

And presto - at least with static configuration it's working. SLAAC is working.
Will try DHCP when I'm back at home so I can use IPv6 as a fallback should
DHCP turn out not to work.

Thanks for the valuable discussion - I did learn a few things about this platform.

Kind regards,
Patrick
