If you have a router handy, can you tell me the section name? I am eating lunch right now and can see if I can find something. This also, as an advanced menu item, might be an upstream bug we want to file if we can isolate the problem.
Not sure what you mean by section name, but a screenshot is here:
Agreed it might be upstream, but not sure.
@andygunn section name is the name is the name of the config section in a UCI file, i.e. in /etc/config/network particular interfaces would be defined as:
config '
Where '
Ah, ok.
root@CassCo-3rdStreet-NanoLocoM5:/etc/config# cat network
config interface 'loopback'
option ifname 'lo'
option proto 'static'
option ipaddr '127.0.0.1'
option netmask '255.0.0.0'
config interface 'lan'
option proto 'commotion'
option class 'client'
option type 'bridge'
option bridge_empty '1'
config interface 'wan'
option ifname 'eth0'
option proto 'commotion'
option class 'wired'
option dhcp 'none'
option ipaddr '192.168.101.5'
option netmask '255.255.255.0'
option meshed '1'
config interface 'thisnode'
option ifname 'br-lan'
option proto 'static'
option ipaddr '169.254.140.121'
option netmask '255.255.0.0'
config interface 'testbed5'
option class 'mesh'
option proto 'commotion'
option profile 'testbed5'
Thanks Andy!
Here is the code you are looking for:
function interface.mac(self)
return (self:_ubus("macaddr") or "00:00:00:00:00:00"):upper()
end
And, here is that Ubus code that is returning None, causing the "00:00:00:00:00:00" to be returned
function interface._ubus(self, field)
if not _ubusdevcache[self.ifname] then
_ubusdevcache[self.ifname] = utl.ubus("network.device", "status",
{ name = self.ifname })
end
if _ubusdevcache[self.ifname] and field then
return _ubusdevcache[self.ifname][field]
end
return _ubusdevcache[self.ifname]
end
That should help you guys explore the issue. Don't have a Commotion router to do any exploration on.
In Advanced -> Network -> Interfaces, the MAC address for the mesh interface (wlan0) shows up as 00:00:00:00:00:00, rather than the proper MAC address (which can be seen when running the ifconfig command from the command line).
