Had a similar problem with an Intel interface (could have been broadcom/tg3)
Upgrading pxe-firmware or rebuilding ipxe (you need xz-devel for that) could do the trick.

RE: Blacklist for duplicate MAC's
It’s a SVN#3451 pull
I don’t know what thee default are, but I think you are referring to this setting:

RE: Blacklist for duplicate MAC's
The notebooks (quick) register 2 MAC’s. One is the (unique) ethernet-interface, the second (not unique) is another unknown device. I could look up the brand/type, but thats not the problem. I agree, it should not be possible to have duplicate MAC’s, but the fact is: I have. I did not lookup the device responsible, but i guess it is the WAN/4G Gobi (Qualcomm) interface/modem without a SIM (telco related), where the interface functions as some sort of un-numbered/loopback interface

RE: Blacklist for duplicate MAC's
Nothing special. Just boot and did a quick registration. The first host registers a “50:65:f3:nn:nn:nn” (which is the Ethernet-MAC) as hostMAC.hmPrimary=1 and “02:1e:10:1f:00:00” as hostMAC.hmPrimary=0.
When the second host boots, the ipxe-menu tells me the host is not registered. Next I select “quick registration” and a “host already exists as …” somewhere in the following screens and the host is not registered in the FOG database/interface. -
RE: Blacklist for duplicate MAC's
I doubted myself and I double-checked. Both nodes claim “02:1e:10:1f:00:00”.
It’s a clean, SVN trunk install and I only experimented with these 2 nodes (and a VM; it just boots quicker).
Gonna try to work around the problem by blacklisting (modprobe.blacklist=modname1) the linux-module responsible. -
Blacklist for duplicate MAC's
FOG-newbee here.
I want to sysprep&clone a couple off (HP) Probook 430 & 450’s. When doing a “Quick Registration” of the first host, the service registers 2 MAC-addresses; when (quick) registering a second host the console tells me the host is already registered. The Probook consist of multiple network-capable devices (WAN/4G, Ethernet, WiFI, Bluetooth) and it looks like one of the device MAC-addresses isn’t unique. So i’d like to filter-out some of the discovered MAC-addresses.
I found “FOG Settings -> FOG Service - Host Register -> FOG_QUICKREG_PENDING_MAC_FILTER”, but this doen’t seem to apply/solve my problem.Regards, Simon
