FX30 LTE-M - MAC Address change at each reboot

Gateways Programmable IoT Gateways
#1

Hi,
On the FX30 LTE the MAC address of eth0 change at each reboot (like the FX30 3G). However, it seem that the LTE internal Ethernet driver or hardware chip doesn’t support a fixed mac address set in the /etc/network/interface file (via hw address) which is supported by the 3G.
I get this error:
ifconfig: SIOCSIFHWADDR: Device or resource busy

Is it exist any way to set the MAC Address on the LTE?

Regards,
Guillaume

Hi @g.amaudric

To configure the MAC address to a static address use targetToolsSetNet. This will set the MAC to address to the current address:

ssh to FX30 LTE-M: 
# ssh root@192.168.2.2
# setNet macfixed
# ifconfig                      # check that the MAC address and IP address are set
# legato restart                # reboots the target device

Please help to tick “Solutions” if your question is answered.
