How To Manually Add Second MAC to Factory Config

How to add second MAC address to "factoryconfig" manually:

  1. Break into UBoot. Ensure you are using the latest UBoot version or your project specific version that supports the second MAC address block.
  2. Type "factoryconfig" to record the current settings for backup purposes. i.e.
    MitySOM-5CSx # factoryconfig
    Factory config at 3ffef36c [ 68 bytes]
    Factory Configuration:
    Config Version : 1.2
    MAC Address    : C4:FF:BC:70:42:69
    MAC Address2   : 00:00:00:00:00:00
    Serial Number  : 19032198
    Model Number   : 5CSX-H6-42A-RC
    
  3. Type "factoryconfig set" to add the second MAC address. This will allow you to change any of the entries. Press "enter" to leave a field as-is.
  4. When you reach the "MAC Address2" field use the "backspace" key to delete the 00:00:00:00:00:00 entry and then enter your new MAC address using the ":" between each byte of the address. i.e.
    MitySOM-5CSx # factoryconfig set
    Factory config at 3ffef36c [ 68 bytes]
    MAC Address(1): C4:FF:BC:70:42:69
    MAC Address(2):
    

    MitySOM-5CSx # factoryconfig set
    Factory config at 3ffef36c [ 68 bytes]
    MAC Address(1): C4:FF:BC:70:42:69
    MAC Address(2): 11:22:33:44:55:66
    
  5. Press enter to leave the remaining fields as-is.
  6. Once you return to the UBoot prompt re-enter the "factoryconfig" command to ensure the fields have been updated properly.
  7. The enter the "factoryconfig save" command to write the config back to the EEPROM memory on the module
    MitySOM-5CSx # factoryconfig save
    Factory config at 3ffef36c [ 68 bytes]
    Factory Configuration Block Saved
    Configuration Saved
    
  8. Power cycle the board and run the "factoryconfig" command to verify that the config has been updated permanently.
