Re: cannonical to non-cannonical

The other replies show the method. Here is a short cut that
I use.

Note the following table of pairs:
  1-8 0-0
  2-4 6-6
  3-c 9-9
  5-a f-f
  7-e
  b-d

Write out the MAC address to be converted (this works both from
canonical to non-canonical and vice versa)

                                12-34-56-78-9a-bc
write the table partner 84-c2-a6-e1-95-d3
swap the numbers in each byte 48-2c-6a-1e-59-3d

you're done. With practice you don't need the second step.

Cheers, Fred.
