Because modern systems optimize for roaming between nodes, you can join network, use dns-sd to gather mac addresses of the computers which are not physically connected to your AP (in conjuction with 'tcpdump -I')
Then voila, 2 devices using same MAC without any problems.
PS. I personally use "printer" addresses for 2 reasons:
1: generally everyone forgets to nicely setup firewall for them since they're infrastructure objects.
2: they have relatively less traffic and probably located some obsecure room with an AP for them.
- mercora 6y agoi was less concerned about authentication issues and more about routing issues as ARP would lead to results depending on time and location inside the network topology...
