Moving from fbelavenuto/arpl to ARC, I have 2 nic's, both should be connected to network, each with a custom MAC address. It used to be working with fbelavenuto/arpl by adding command line netif_num: "2" then listing mac1/mac2. With ARK, I tried everything and was not able to get the custom mac address to show in DSM. Eventually, I managed to get mac1 to custom by installing ARC with patch, the second nic still showing the physical MAC. It is also confusing because if you look at sysinfo herewith, you can see IP address assigned to physical card but the custom MAC showing disconnected, but see in screenshot in DSM it is the other way around!

How I can make 2 nic's to show in DSM with custom MAC address?

we only need mac1 as fake and everything is working. no need to change second and with only first faked, everything is more fluid and stable.

Thanks, I know 1 MAC is good for most of the application, but there are some use cases where 2 nic's are needed and in my case I have some hardware restriction with my network equipment and I need to connect both nic's with fake/customized MAC addresses. I hope you may consider adding this feature in the near future as it is really a deal braker for me, I will go back to 7.1 for now with fbelavenuto/arpl as it was working without an issue.
