Multiple Mac Address

Well OS wont matter in any case. Also MAC ID cant be same, though u can assign multiple IP addresses to a single LAN port.

Although MAC id cant be changed through OS cause its flashed onto the LAN port, i have heard of some tools to change them but NOT used any so cant say.

Wait for more experiences members to pour in their views..
 
Multiple at one time is possible. Don't ask me how, that is what my friends did as one part of their BE project. They simulated an entire wireless network using a single wireless card.

its' actally reffered as MAC SPOOFING

Since u used Spoofing word here is it in similar sense to IP spoofing.. ?? If yes the in this case MAC ID is not actually changed but it shows to the outer world that the MAC ID is something different.

@King.. They could also simulate using multiple IP addresses to a single card.. Please tell a bit more on how can u assingn multiple MAC addresses ??
 
Guys thanx for your responce.I know how to change mac address but i want to keep multiple address at one time.KingKrool you said dont ask me but you are the only one here who knows.Help appreciated.:D
 
I don't know how they did it. But it was in Linux, not Windows. I only mentioned it to counter Josh's point. It was a lot of fancy stuff. They made some minor changes in the driver/HAL to allow it to work. This was only a minor part of their project. But it was a nonstandard thing anyway. It will not work across all cards, so I cannot help you. I just wanted people to know that it is possible. They had supplied different IPs for different MACs for the same card.

Even in the case of virtualization, I believe a similar thing is done via bridging though.

It should be possible in Windows in the same way, but I don't know exactly how to go about it.

The question is, why do you want multiple MAC addresses?

@Josh: A single MAC with multiple IP's is not a true emulation is it? My bad - I said simulation. They were actually emulating, for which they needed to have an exact replica. Hence multiple MAC addresses.
 
i want to keep multiple mac address to access multiple internet accounts at one time.I dont have problem with multiple IPs .So please if someone could help.

Can anyone one give details about virtualization.

Tx guys.
