Question 1

How to use macchnager and what is it

Answer 1

You can use this if there is a black list or white list for a MAC address, then you can bypass it by changeing your MAC address, there are many other things this can be used for to

To use this tool the first command you use is

macchanger

This tells you to choose help or options

Then just type the help option for macchanger here’s the command

Macchanger - -help

And this will show available options that you can use

Next you type the command ifconfig and then see what wireless interface you are useing eth0 or another option, usally eth0

After that type this command in

Macchanger -s eth0

You can use the wireless type you are useing for the last thing I put eth0 cause that’s what I was useing, But this command basically just shows your current MAC address and the permnant one you had
After that type this command

Macchanger -r eth0 this just gives you a random Mac address that the network sees your device as, also when you type this command you will see it says new Mac at the bottom that’s what you are useing right now, and if you run the -s command from above you will see your curent Mac is diffrent from your old one

Say you wnat to bypass the white list or have a specific ip adress then you would use this command

macchnager - - mac=22:33:44:55:66:77 eth0

So you can put any MAC address you want for where I put the 22:33 and the rest of the number I used for an example
So it changed to the specific MAC address we wanted to that easy

You can then change your MAC address back to what it originally was with this command

macchnager -p eth0

So now you MAC address is back to the normal MAC address you usally have after that command
