+ | This error indicates an attempt to set an invalid value for the ''[[:cfg:mac]]'' address of a network interface. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Things to try: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Check that the address you are attempt to set is correct. | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Check the type of the network interface using the ''[[:cmd:ifstat]]'' command. Some network interfaces will autodetect the type of network that they are attached to (e.g. Ethernet or Infiniband), and will refuse to accept a ''[[:cfg:mac]]'' address for the wrong type of network. | ||
