How to "change" MAC address - workaround.
If someone have the same problem (extracted from thread).

Lets assume that you have epN interface.

# ifconfig tapN create
# sysctl -w net.link.tap.tapN=f0:0f:f0:0f:f0:0f  # which is wanted MAC address
# ifconfig bridgeN create
# brconfig bridgeN add tapN add epN
# ifconfig tapN up
# ifconfig epN up
# brconfig bridgeN up

And to obtain IP from DHCP:
# dhclient tapN

Cheers...
