Hello,

long ago I found similar issues with the uml_switch codebase. My 
problem was not the mac handling, but an missing feature to 
connect two switches together via an udp-tunnel. I have rewritten 
(but not redesigned) most of the code. The latest published 
codebase can be found here:

regards

Felix


P.S.: My code is (since about a year) in the state of further 
improvement (I want an uml-switch, which can start and stop 
uml-guests and be controlled via a control socket), but this 
codebase is actually not in an releasable state (although I use 
it on my production machine :-)
