I bought 6 GESBC-9G20 boards and all of them have the same MAC address

Why are all of the boards using the same MAC address?

That is giving me problems (network conflicts) when using them in the same network as they have to be.

What are the possible solutions to this problem

OK. I think I found the solution, using:

# ifconfig eth0 hw ether <new mac address>


Sorry, I went panic not knowing how to solve that problem...

The Glomation SBCs are normally integrated into customer's own design.  The MAC address supplied are just for testing purpose only.  The final product manufactuerer should allocated MAC address block from IEEE and assign each board with a unique MAC address.  The U-boot setenv command can be used to change the MAC address.  Or it can be changed with Linux ifconfig command.
