Hi!
Is there a way I can spoof the mac address of a network device IE: Camera, NAS unit on the Data Link Layer within a router's config? Like a static route to with an "assigned" mac to a device. This is just on my LAN
In other words I'd like to access a device using a user-defined MAC assigned to it.

Thanks!

So, you want the router to change/spoof the MAC address of the camera connecting to it? Is that what you are trying to accomplish?

Yes.
So these devices will now be known as xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx from now on basically. Next best thing to reflashing the hardware I guess?

Wait, what do you mean of the camera connecting to "it" ?

I mean the camera's mac itself, as it's known on my local network.

We had to reflash all the devices in the office. We could not solve this problem in any other way.

Please do not necro 10 year old threads, dd-wrt has come a long way and setting up static IP leases based on clients MAC is not an issue.
