Ok, I've taken the CCNA courses and all throughout them I was told time and time again that you can't change the MAC, since it's hard-coded into the chip on your NIC and that each NIC will have a uniqe MAC and would never be re-used on another card.
Now, I have a friend who says you can do it with Linux. He says you can do it by typing this in a terminal window.
ifconfig eth1 down
ifconfig eth1 hw ether 00:00:00:00:00 up
Can anyone with Linux verify this or can anyone with experience confirm this is true?
I'd be very very shocked, but anything is possible.
Thanks in advance!
